Select the manufacturing process and the region where the part is
manufactured.
-
Under Manufacturing, use
the Region drop-down list or click the
map to select the region where the part is manufactured.
Data is not available for all regions. Regions that
contain data are highlighted when you hover over them.
On each Sustainability map,
Japan has its own region.
-
If
you are using full Sustainability, in the Built to last field, specify the length of
time the part is expected to last.
The Duration of Use
value you enter later in the Environmental Impact dashboard is divided by
the Built to last value to calculate
how many parts are required for the length of time the product will be used.
For example, if a part lasts one year and the product is used for four
years, the part must be replaced four times.
In SustainabilityXpress, the
Built to last value defaults to
1 year and cannot be edited.
-
In Process, select the
manufacturing process to use.
Availability depends on the selected material class.
In SustainabilityXpress, the
following values are shown for the process you select:
Total electricity
usage
Total natural gas
usage
Scrap rate (amount of
the material discarded as scrap)
In
Sustainability, editable fields let you change usage amounts if you have
more precise values for your manufacturing process. To return to defaults,
reselect the process.
