Abstract

Various disclosed embodiments include methods, systems, and computer-readable media for managing feature geometry-aspect machining using a PLM data processing system. According to one embodiment, a method includes identifying a feature geometry in a graphical design. The method also includes identifying an aspect of the feature geometry. The aspect includes a subset of the feature geometry. The method further includes defining the feature geometry aspect based on a user-defined name. The method also includes associating one or more machining operations with the feature geometry aspect. Additionally, the method includes storing the one or more machining operations and the user-defined name in association with the feature geometry aspect.
