This type of tolerance is given to manufacturers by listing the highest and lowest allowable dimensions.
What is a limit tolerance?
A joint type that keeps parts locked together with no movement.
What is a rigid joint?
The process of Reverse Engineering is not to create a brand new product, but instead to study this.
What is an existing product?

In Autodesk Fusion, by creating this, a joint has a minimum and a maximum ability to rotate, slide or move in any direction.
What is a Motion Limit?
This sheet is used to document a product's parts as it is being Reverse Engineered.
