tooling

The tools and support devices required to setup and position equipment for a production run, which may be consumed during that run or remain available for additional jobs. Requirements for unique or specialized tools are scheduled through their addition to the bill of materials (while excluded from product cost) or by other methods to ensure their availability for a specific order.
