In this paper, we propose a framework to characterize the energy consumption of machines and their subcomponents
(e.g., spindle, coolant pump, controller, heater, hydraulic system in injection molding machine, motors in these
components). This framework serves as a key component in describing the environmental impacts of decisions in
manufacturing operations design and control, especially at the sub-cellular level. Furthermore, the proposed
framework can be utilized to investigate the inter-relationship of operational decisions and environmental impacts
within a manufacturing plant. The paper concludes with examples of the proposed framework for energy data
collection on a CNC milling machine.
