3. Process Specifications

Details about the manufacturing processes used to create the part.

• Machining Processes: The specific machining techniques used to create the part. Common methods include CNC milling, CNC turning, EDM, grinding, drilling, and broaching. E.g., "Part machined using 5-axis CNC milling."
• Cutting Tools: The type of tools used to cut or shape the material. E.g., "End mill, carbide insert," "High-speed steel drill."
• Machining Operations: Defines the different operations the part undergoes, such as rough cutting, finishing, drilling, tapping, or threading. E.g., "First operation: Rough cut, second operation: Fine finish."
• Chip Removal: Details the method used to handle chips during machining (e.g., vacuum, chip conveyor, or manual removal).
• Tolerance Levels: Describes the precision requirements for various features (e.g., hole diameters, grooves, surface flatness). E.g., "Hole tolerance: ±0.002mm."
