Description
This process refers to the production activity of removing 1 kg of steel using milling machining. The data originates from the production processes of drill bits, rollers, spiral-welded pipes, couplings, and other mechanical and electrical equipment accessories.
Activity Description
The dataset includes steel material inputs, direct electricity consumption of machinery, water consumption, and steel waste removed through milling processes, which is typically collected and reused.
Process Description
This process refers to the production activity of removing 1 kg of steel using a milling process. If the amount of steel removed by the milling process is not specified, an average assumption of "0.108 kg of steel waste generated per 1 kg of final product produced" can be used.

Technology comment
Milling is a machining process that uses a rotating cutter mounted on a spindle to intermittently remove material from a stationary workpiece, shaping its surface into planes, contours, or performing operations such as drilling and slotting. In this process, only the cutter rotates while the workpiece remains non-rotating.
