What Does TP Stand For?
TP stands for True Position
TP, or True Position, refers to a tolerance specification in engineering and manufacturing that indicates the allowable deviation of a feature from its exact location on a component. It is a critical parameter in geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) that ensures components fit together correctly, enhancing assembly quality and functionality. Maintaining true position is essential for optimizing manufacturing processes and ensuring product reliability.
