In order to measure the sustainability of a specific process, metrics for sustainable manufacturing were developed and proposed in the scientific literature. The research activities presented in this paper aim to apply a structured sustainable approach to a tool manufacturing process. More in detail, the production of a tap, starting from the raw material up to the finished product, is investigated. The process, divided into the various stages of the manufacturing route, is evaluated from a technological and sustainable point of view. Results provides a basis for decision-making, and are expected to be incorporated into the business strategy development processes.en670 Industrielle FertigungMachiningProcess consumptionSustainable manufacturingTap productionConference Object
