Content Description

This document specifies a reference dictionary for adaptive items, together with their descriptive properties and domains of values.

This document specifies a reference dictionary containing:

—    definitions and identifications of the classes of adaptive items, with an associated classification scheme;

—    definitions and identifications of the data element types that represents the properties of adaptive items;

—    definitions and identifications of domains of values for describing the above-mentioned data element types.

The following are within the scope of this document:

—    standard data that represent the various classes of adaptive items;

—    standard data that represent the various properties of adaptive items;

—    standard data that represent domains of values used for properties of adaptive items;

—    one implementation method by which the standard data defined in this document can be exchanged.

NOTE 1    The implementation method by which the standard data defined in this document can be exchanged is specified in ISO 10303-21.

The following are outside the scope of this document:

—    specialized or expert knowledge in the design and use of cutting tools;

—    rules to determine what information should be communicated;

—    applications where these standard data can be stored or referenced;

—    implementation methods other than the one defined in this document by which the standard data can be exchanged and referenced;

—    information model for cutting tools;

—    definitions of classes and properties for cutting items;

—    definitions of classes and properties for tool items;

—    definitions of classes and properties for assembly items;

—    definitions of classes and properties for connection systems;

—    definitions of classes and properties for reference systems.

NOTE 2    The information model for cutting tools is defined in ISO 13399-1.

NOTE 3        The definitions of classes and properties for cutting items, tool items, and assembly items are provided in ISO/TS 13399-2, ISO/TS 13399-3, and ISO/TS 13399-5.

NOTE 4        The definitions of classes and properties for connection systems and reference systems are provided in ISO/TS 13399-50.

About ISO

ISO, the International Organization for Standardization, brings global experts together to agree on the best way of doing things – for anything from making a product to managing a process. As one of the oldest non-governmental international organizations, ISO has enabled trade and cooperation between people and companies all over the world since 1946. The International Standards published by ISO serve to make lives easier, safer and better.
