Machine-tools n.e.c. for working metal, sintered metal carbides or cermets, without removing material

1. Scope and Applicability

This PCR addresses production of complete machine-tools whose working function changes the shape or surface of metal, sintered metal carbides or cermets without removing material and which are not covered by a more specific machine-tool category. Chipless thread/profile rolling is a representative configuration. Declare the actual working mechanism and document why the machine does not belong to the adjacent categories identified in un-cpc-3-0-structure-2025.

Exclude material-removal machines, the forging/forming/shearing/punching machines and other presses identified separately in CPC 44217, rolling mills, separately supplied tools or machine parts, and manufacturing services performed with the machine. Whether machining is used to manufacture the machine's own parts does not determine the classification of the finished machine.

The foreground package covers production and factory acceptance. Purchased component production is linked upstream at the supplied component's actual state. Customer installation, commercial operation, maintenance and end-of-life require separate downstream scenarios; factory trial runs belong to production. A production reference unit is not a lifetime metalworking service functional unit and cannot support performance comparisons without equivalent capacity, quality and duty assumptions.

3. Reference Flow

Field	Value
What	Supply a complete machine capable of the declared non-material-removal working operation
How much	One accepted complete machine of the declared configuration
How well	Meet the purchase specification and documented factory acceptance criteria for the declared workpiece, capacity and dimensional or surface quality

Reference flow property	Mass 93a60a56-a3c8-11da-a746-0800200b9a66
Reference unit group	Units of mass 93a60a57-a4c8-11da-a746-0800200c9a66
Reference unit	kg
Required qualifiers	Model; configuration and serial/batch identity; actual working mechanism; metal/carbide/cermet workpiece scope; accepted net mass M; installed tooling and auxiliaries; drive type; controller type; capacity and acceptance criteria; production site and period; supplied component starting states; packaging exclusion from M

Every qualifier must be recorded in the foreground package. Manufacturer catalog specifications identify a model but do not replace measurements for the accepted configuration.

4. Measurement and Unit Rules

rule_id	Applies to	Required property	Required unit	Rule
reference_mass	reference product	Mass	kg	M = accepted net mass of one complete machine of the same configuration in kg; collect using cp_mass.
energy_basis	electricity rows	Net calorific value	MJ	Use integrated metered electricity for production, including attributed idle and acceptance tests. Convert recorded kWh to MJ using the exact identity 1 kWh = 3.6 MJ. TianGong's energy-property label does not imply fuel combustion. Installed power alone is not energy consumption; retain supply voltage and the site-specific electricity mix.
component_accounting	installed component rows	Mass	kg	Reconcile quantities to the installed configuration and procurement records; do not count component mass again as raw metal when its production is already supplied by an upstream component dataset.

5. System Boundary

Boundary Abstraction

Field	Value
declared_starting_condition	Actual received components, stock and consumables at the manufacturing site; record whether each arrives cast, machined, heat-treated, coated or as an assembled purchased component
starting_condition_role	Foreground collection entry condition; it does not erase upstream production burdens
product_classification_scope	Complete residual-category non-material-removal metalworking machine-tools
recursive_input_rule	A purchased same-category complete machine used as an input requires an upstream dataset for its declared supplied state. Record only additional foreground work and avoid recursively reopening already included production.
upstream_dataset_requirement	Link every purchased input and off-site treatment to a dataset matching material/component identity, technology, geography, reference property and supplied state. Disclose proxy choices and data gaps.
disclosure	Starting states, make-or-buy decisions, included auxiliaries/tooling, outsourced operations, inbound transport, production losses, allocation, packaging, waste destinations and excluded downstream scenarios

boundary_identity	product scope	Verify the non-material-removal function and exclusions before applying the reference unit.	un-cpc-3-0-structure-2025
boundary_configuration	installed machine	Record actual mechanical, drive and control assemblies; hydraulic installations are conditional on the supplied design.	profiroll-innovative-machine-configuration
boundary_make_buy	component production	Include machining, finishing, heat treatment or other operations when performed for this machine; when outsourced, link the supplied component dataset and transport once. Record each actual physical exchange separately.
boundary_tests	factory acceptance	Include test electricity, lubricants, test stock, rejects and waste treatment attributable to acceptance, including failed trials and rework. Exclude customer production after release.
boundary_transport	inbound supply	Record supplier/site coordinates, mode, distance, load and transported mass, and link the applicable transport dataset. Transport-service exchanges must remain separate from combustion elementary flows.
boundary_extension	foreground completeness	Reconcile the bill of materials, stores issues, meters and waste records. Add individually identified physical exchanges for actual operations missing from the common inventory; an absent common row is not a cut-off permission.

rule_id	Applies to	Rule	source_ids
allocation_hierarchy	shared manufacturing	First investigate subdivision or system expansion. If neither applies, use a quantified underlying physical relationship. Document the decision and attribution evidence.	eu-environmental-footprint-2021-allocation
allocation_meters	electricity and shared equipment	Prefer operation/job submetering. Where a meter covers multiple jobs, retain measured operating time and load evidence for the allocation and reconcile the attributed total to the meter. Machine count alone requires evidence of comparable activity.
