Due to shorter product life cycles, increasing product variants and shrinking lot sizes, manufacturing companies are expected to produce according to frequently modified product specifications.

Accordingly, this contribution presents a product-oriented description approach of manufacturing machine skills. The application of the concept is demonstrated by an example of a drilling station.
