Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-005568

To machine a workpiece so that its adjacent faces or features are precisely perpendicular to one another. The process involves milling, grinding, or filing surfaces to create accurate 90-degree angles, which serve as datums for subsequent machining operations. Machinists use precision squares and indicators to verify the perpendicularity of the finished surfaces.
