1.6.3 Producability Level
When appropriate this standard will provide three design producibility levels of features, tolerances, measurements, assembly, testing of completion or verification of the manufacturing process that reflect progressive increases in sophistication of tooling, materials, or processing and, therefore progressive increases in fabrication cost. These levels are:
Level A General Design Producibility -- Preferred
Level B Moderate Design Producibility -- Standard
Level C High Design Producibility -- Reduced
The producibility levels are not to be intepreted as a design requirement, but a method of communicating the degree of difficulty of a feature between design and fabrication/assembly facilities....
