Pockets · Thin walls · Hole patterns
CRITICAL TO FUNCTION
Datums, internal radii and the relationship between mounting features.
The workpiece rotates while a cutting tool forms diameters, bores, shoulders and grooves. A starting point for shafts, bushings, sleeves, flanges and round adapters.

CRITICAL TO FUNCTION
Mating fits, shoulders and the surfaces that locate or seal.
A turned body with milled flats? A machined housing with a specified finish?
Send the complete component. Include the relationship between features and the final surface requirements so the full supply scope can be reviewed together.
No. Send the model or drawing with the part’s function and critical requirements. Geometry, tool access, workholding and the required features determine the process route to review.
Yes. A round component can also have flats, slots or off-axis holes. Include all features in the model and drawing so the complete manufacturing scope can be assessed together.
Identify the datums, mating fits and dimensions that control function. State the inspection points and records required. Achievable requirements are confirmed for the specific geometry, material and process route.
Yes. List each quantity against the same drawing revision and include the target dates. Pricing, lead time and any changes in manufacturing scope are confirmed during quotation.
