Which tolerance callout has the greatest impact on cycle time?
B
True Position callout has the greatest impact on cycle time.
WHY
True position tolerances tighten both location and orientation accuracy, often requiring slower feeds, precision probing, and additional inspection steps. The tighter the positional callout, the longer each part spends in setup and verification — directly driving up cycle time.
