In mechanical machining, significant energy use can be linked to carbon emissions and an increase in manufacturing cost.When machining a given component, the basic energy state dominates the total energy footprint as compared to tool-tipenergy. Thus, the choice of machine tool is an important consideration in reducing the energy demand per productmachined. In this work, a standardized NC toolpath was milled on machine tools in Singapore and the UK. The worksignificantly contributes to the knowledge on energy intensity…
