Machining time: roughing, finishing and holes

Read the H2 total together with roughing, finishing, hole-machining and deburring views.

What it does

The Agent keeps the total time separate from its category views, so the same work is not added twice.

Ask the Agent

Give the H2 total time, then show roughing, finishing, hole machining and deburring separately. Explain which numbers must not be added together.

Typical answer

Analysis complete

manufacturing analysis / result

The H2 estimate is 42.6 minutes; the CNC categories are views of the same total, not extra time.

For this example, the time view separates roughing, finishing, holemaking and deburring so an engineer can see where the estimate comes from without double-counting it.

H2 total

42.6 min as the planning estimate for the analyzed part and selected route.

CNC views

Roughing 18.4, finishing 13.8, holes 7.2 and deburring 3.2 minutes.

How to read it

Use the total for planning and the categories for explanation; do not add the category views to H2 a second time.
