Description
This process refers to the production activity of removing 1kg of steel through machining, excluding the machining processes for butterfly valves and ball valves. If the weight of steel removed during machining is not clearly defined, an average assumption of "0.142kg of steel waste generated per 1kg of final product produced" may be used. The data originate from the production processes of cylinders, shafts, rollers, drill bits, and other mechanical and electrical equipment accessories, excluding valve production.
Activity Description
This dataset includes steel material inputs, direct electricity consumption of machinery, water consumption, and steel waste removed through machining processes, which is typically collected and reused.

Technology comment
Turning is a machining technique in which the workpiece is fixed on the machine tool and driven by an electric motor to rotate at high speed, while the cutting tool fixed on the spindle moves across the surface of the workpiece for material removal. Throughout the process, only the workpiece rotates, while the cutting tool remains non-rotating.
