Abstract
A machining method is provided for manufacturing a feature in a part. Feature data are received that describe a feature to be manufactured and include a type and a set of attributes of the feature. Machining method data are received that describe a machining method for manufacturing an associated feature. Machining methods associated with features of a given type are analyzed in order to define a set of ranges of feature attributes where the machining methods are applicable. A set of ranking values are assigned to each machining method for ordering machining methods. Data of an additional feature to be manufactured is received, the type of the additional feature being the given type and the set of attributes is a specific set. A set of machining methods is selected and at least one machining method is provided based on its assigned ranking value to be associated with the additional feature.
