Smart Decisions Based on access to relevant information Resources: Conditions: 2
Smart Decisions Influenced by Cutting Tool Information CAD/CAM – choice of operations, machines, cutting tools – creation of efficient tool paths Resource Management – tool planning, efficient inventory and service of items in tool crib – selection and creation of tool assemblies Simulation – verification of tool paths – selection of cutting data CNC Machining – optimization of process 3

Cutting Tool Information Standard ISO 13399 – For Digital Communication We all share the same definition of a parameter Definition: ”Maximum engagement of the cutting edge or edges with the workpiece measured perpendicular to the feed motion. ” 15 mm 5
Cutting Tool Information Standard ISO 13399 – What Can Be Communicated? Tool item information – Classification – Parameter values Tool assembly – Assembly instructions for tool room – Tool information used by CAM/CNC References to external documents – 3 D model of single tool or complete tool assembly Multi-function – ”Multiple tools” on one body Nominal and physical tool – Nominal tool information to CAM and tool room – Physical tool information between tool room and CNC 6 mill turn
Cutting Tool Information Standard ISO 13399 – Basics Information Model from STEP (ISO 10303 -214) – Consists of selected parts from “AP 214” (automotive) – Powerful model to describe a cutting tool. E. g. A tool assembly may include its components as well as the resulting 3 D model. Cutting Tool Vocabulary in P-Lib dictionary file (ISO 13584) – Allows for quicker updates to meet requirements from the industry File Format from STEP (ISO 10303 -21) – Same proven file format, “part 21”, which is used for 3 D models 7
