PrimaryProcessCutting

PrimaryProcessCutting summarizes the cutting processes specified as primary manufacturing steps for the part. It identifies operations such as laser cutting or waterjetting, along with associated parameters like tolerances, edges to be processed, and required standards. Structuring this information helps planners understand baseline fabrication intent before secondary machining or finishing occurs. Use the model to align supplier capabilities, estimate lead times, or validate that specified processes match the material and geometry requirements. It also captures confidence, source references, and any conditional statements so you can escalate ambiguous instructions to manufacturing engineers early and measure how process guidance evolves across revisions. The data is ideal for building dashboards that visualize shop-floor demand.
