Educational article: (AP302) Productive Process Pattern: Dynamic re-machining (pdf)

Productive Process Pattern™ from the in-process control layer of the Productive Process Pyramid™. The CNC machining process uses semi-finishing cuts or test cuts (slave features) that are representative of the subsequent finishing cut. The probing system on the machine is used to measure the cut feature and adjust the process through tool offsets to improve final part accuracy (using pattern AP301, Cutter parameter update).
