Optimization by simulation is still an important issue in quality engineering. This study was carried out to follow the process of optimization by simulation by using the optimization of a clamp mechanism as an example. The process from parameter design to tolerance design was analyzed. As a result, it was shown that iterative optimization improves reproducibility of the gain, and loss is reduced through the process from parameter design to tolerance design.
