Selection notes
Store series, EDP, code, diameter, L/D, point, shank, coating, coolant, and catalog revision.
Treat a move between standard and micro branches as an application change.
Variables to validate

- Confirm entry angle and apply the current feed reduction rather than assuming full feed.
- Verify EDP, diameter, shank, coolant, runout, holder, and cutting data for the work material.
