Technical drawing for hardened and ground parts
N
Hi, I am working on a technical drawing for a part that needs to be heat-treated and then ground to achieve precise tolerances. Should I include specific notes on the drawing to detail the sequence of machining, heat treating, and then grinding? If so, what is the best way to indicate these steps to ensure clarity for the manufacturing team?
