I am looking for industry accepted tolerances for various manufacturing processes (metals and plastic processing). Are there any industry norms to control these tolerances? The manufacturing processes I am specifically interested are:

Investment Casting
Pressure die casting
Deep drawn metal forming
Injection molding
Metal stamping

Any guidance in this regard will be of great help to me.
