Overview
ISO 13399-1:2006/Amd 1:2010 is an important amendment to the international standard for cutting tool data representation and exchange. This document forms Part 1 of the ISO 13399 series, providing an overview, fundamental principles, and a general information model for the standardized representation of cutting tool data. It offers a structured, unified framework to facilitate clear communication, interoperability, and integration across various software and hardware platforms in manufacturing and tooling industries.
Key updates in Amendment 1 address enhancements in data modeling elements such as fitting bounds, coatings, grades, physical item states, and geometric transformations, ensuring more precise and comprehensive representation of cutting tool information.
Key Topics
Fitting Bounds
Defines allowable deviations from nominal numerical values to specify tolerances for fittings. Introduces attributes like lower bound, upper bound, significant digits, and value determination (e.g., calculated, designed, measured). This addition improves the accuracy and reliability of tool specification and manufacturing processes.Coating and Grade Definitions
Introduces specific terms related to coatings, such as coating name and coating process, along with a refined concept of cutting tool grades. These grades describe the composition of the substrate and coating, cutting conditions, and applicable standard designations, enabling detailed specification of tool materials and coatings.Physical Item Management
Elaborates on the representation of physical cutting tools as tangible artefacts with attributes like location, state, and structural relationships. Concepts such as physical item location association, physical item state association, and physical item structure association improve traceability and lifecycle management of tool components.Geometric Transformations
Specifies 2D and 3D transformations involving translation and rotation without scaling. These are essential for defining precise tool geometries and positions in manufacturing setups, supporting interoperability in CAD/CAM systems and tool design software.Item Characteristics and Definitions
Enhances item classification into cutting, tool, adaptive, or assembly items, with detailed associations linking characteristics to item definitions. This promotes a modular and flexible data structure adaptable for various application contexts such as assembly, shipping, or analysis.
Applications
ISO 13399-1:2006/Amd 1:2010 is critical for industries involved in precision manufacturing, machining, and tooling where cutting tools play a vital role. Practical applications include:
Interoperable Data Exchange
Facilitates seamless exchange of cutting tool data between tool manufacturers, machine tool builders, CAD/CAM software vendors, and end users, eliminating ambiguity and errors.Tool Inventory Management
Supports tracking and managing tool locations (warehouse, machine, turret), states (observed, predicted), and versions to optimize tool usage and reduce downtime.Tool Design and Simulation
Enables precise modeling of tool geometries, coatings, and material grades for improved design validation, wear prediction, and optimized cutting conditions.Manufacturing Process Control
By defining fitting bounds and transformation data, the standard helps control quality and process parameters to ensure manufacturing accuracy and repeatability.Standardization in Digital Manufacturing
Aligns with digitalization trends by providing harmonized data structures compatible with Industry 4.0 initiatives and smart factory environments.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Amendment 1 to ISO 13399-1:2006 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 29, Small tools.
