temperature of machining
(OP)
Hello,
does any of you met drawing documentation which specifies temperature of workshop where machining proces is being realised?
it is about details made from aluminium
Thanks, M.

RE: temperature of machining
Of the material before or after machining?
Temperature controls of the metal are often needed as it is being cut to avoid problems.
Sometimes specified in storage to prevent metalurgical issues, but that's very rare. We've had questions about ultra-high precision parts needing temperature control while machining to get within the tolerances: (Too hot overall and the dimensions change.)

What is Engineering anyway: FAQ1088-1484: In layman terms, what is "engineering"?
RE: temperature of machining
These manufacturing process controls are not usually specified on engineering drawings. The engineering drawing simply defines what is required in the finished product. It is manufacturing's responsibility to take whatever actions are necessary to produce a product that meets the requirements defined on the engineering drawing.

I was hoping for an opportunity to tell about watching orange-white chips fly off steel forgings being machined with carbide tools.
... but that will have to wait for another day.
