Engineering guidance for project planning
Explore material selection, with guidance on alloy designation, material condition, properties, machinability, castability, finish compatibility and material documentation.
Apply the guidance to your part
Use the articles to prepare technical questions and identify information needed for quotation. Confirm the applicable material standards, drawing revision, customer specifications and acceptance requirements for the project.
Prepare for technical review
Send the model, drawing, material specification, order quantities, finish and required inspection records. Highlight unresolved design decisions so they can be addressed before tooling or production begins.
