ISO 13399
|
Please be aware that a new standard for defining cutting tool nomenclature has been adopted under the ISO 13399. This ISO standard specifies a common format for identifying and describing cutting tools for use in various CAD and CAM software applications used around the world.
ISO 13399 is an international standard of parameters and information structure, rather than tool function. At Destiny Tool we have adopted the standard and can provide a data table in excel format for easy import into your tooling libraries. Above is a depiction of this new standard nomenclature. Please CONTACT US is you would like a the datafile. |
