  • Machining template
    Patent number: 10717167
    Abstract: An example tool includes a body configured to be secured to a substrate, and a template on or in the body. The template defines at least one of a nominal or a maximum material-removal region. An example assembly includes a substrate defining an aperture, and the tool, including the body secured to the substrate. The nominal material-removal region or the maximum material-removal region are substantially aligned with a respective nominal periphery or a maximum periphery of the aperture. An example technique for machining the substrate includes securing the body of the tool to the substrate. The technique includes substantially aligning the nominal or the maximum material-removal region defined by the template with the respective nominal or the respective maximum periphery of the aperture. The technique includes removing material from the substrate only from a region defined by the nominal or maximum material-removal region.
