B.2:5.4 - Lathe And Workpiece

A lathe transforms a workpiece. That is transformation and work, not MHT and not parthood. B.2 becomes current only if the manufacturing arrangement creates or reveals a new whole that must be reidentified, such as a production cell with exact constituents, obtaining coordination and supervision relations, a governed assembly, an objective, a whole-level capability, and a reidentification rule that the earlier arrangement lacks. A.1 recognition additionally requires the cell’s actual boundary, interfaces, relevant characteristics, and identity-preservation conditions to fit at least one applicable governed construction method or rule under which the cell can remain a constituent of a larger production system.
