Keeping Tolerance Stack-Up Work Alive Sounds Good in Theory - but in Practice, it often Falls Apart

Your team wants a proper tolerance stack-up process, but it’s difficult to maintain and nearly impossible to scale.

Tolerance stacks are skipped. Hard workflow; tedious in-and-out of apps, copying, sketching, measuring data.
Spreadsheets break, become inconsistent, are hard to use, and does not support the needed level of detail.
In a spreadsheet - it is hard to keep work up-to-date, to collaborate and to get an overview.

Too Late.

Your team wants a proper tolerance stack-up process, but it’s difficult to maintain and nearly impossible to scale.

Sophisticated tolerance analysis can only be done by specialists.
Tolerance analysis is postponed to the end of the project with unpleasant surprises or a sudden need for extra tight tolerances.
The sophisticated tolerance analysis tools cannot be used early in design process– requires mature CAD before of any use.

A Dedicated Tolerance Stack-Up Tool for Teams where Tolerances Matter

The RD8 Tolerance Stack-up Software provides a structured, simulation‑driven approach to tolerance stack-ups - built for teams working on complex mechanical systems. Replace scattered documents with a predictable, repeatable workflow that supports better decisions and robust product performance.

Make tolerance stack-up analysis and optimization a part of the product development process.
Keep the overview. Approve designs with confidence. Deliver clear 2D drawings.
Simplify tolerance stacks by optimized interface design.

Tolerance analysis in less than 20 minutes...

1. Import

Easily upload your CAD model(s) to RD8 (.STEP files).

The iteration feature keeps the project up to date with the latest CAD model. (Can also be used up-front without a CAD model.)

2. Setup

Identify and setup the tolerance stack with our easy-to-use features.

Worlds first path finder.
1D, 2D, 3D, non-linear stacks.
Built-in3D viewer and infinity canvas.

3. Analyze

Detail and document the tolerance stack with ease. Forecast and analyze results.

Worst Case, RSS, Statistical and Monte Carlo simulations in seconds

Keeping it all together...
the aftermath…
made easy…

A. Overview

Keep an overview of all calculations in a project.

Our ‘what if’ feature help to predict the effect of changes.

B. Collaborate

Share, sync, update seamlessly.

Cloud based, auto-save, no check-in/check-out, multi-user access.

C. Optimize

Improve predictability through redesign of constraints and geometry of interfaces.

The RD8 proprietary – world leading – mechanical interface engine will “X-ray” the design and reveal optimization points.
