What is a specific tolerance?

Specific Tolerances are used for specific goals in your PCB Project. ... Of course this has to be visible in your PCB data. We will analyse your data accordingly and report back in case your requirements should not match our manufacturing capabilities or we need to introduce extra costs need to achieve your request.

Explanation: Tolerances are provided to the parts because variations in the material properties introduce errors and production machines themselves have inherent inaccuracies. Another reason to introduce tolerance is that it is not possible to make perfect settings by operator so some tolerances are provided.
