This activity starts with the milling processing of steel parts
Included activities ends
The boundary of production activities ends with the milling process treatment of steel machined parts.
Description
This process refers to the production activity of removing 1kg of steel using milling. The data originates from the production processes of drills, rollers, spiral welded pipes, couplings, and other mechanical and electrical equipment accessories.
Activity Description
This dataset includes steel material inputs, direct electricity consumption of the machine, water consumption, and the steel scrap removed via milling, which is typically collected and reused.
Process Description
The process refers to the production activity of removing 1 kg of steel using milling. If the weight of steel removed by milling is not specified, the average assumption of "producing 1 kg of final product generates 0.108 kg of steel waste" can be used.

Technology comment
Milling is a machining process that involves using a rotating cutter mounted on a spindle to intermittently cut and shape a fixed workpiece. This process can be used to create flat or contoured surfaces, or to perform operations such as drilling and slotting. During milling, only the cutter rotates while the workpiece remains stationary.
