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.
In other circumstances, particularly when there is an urgent market requirement for such documents, a
technical committee may decide to publish other types of normative document:
— an ISO Publicly Available Specification (ISO/PAS) represents an agreement between technical experts in
an ISO working group and is accepted for publication if it is approved by more than 50 % of the members
of the parent committee casting a vote;
— an ISO Technical Specification (ISO/TS) represents an agreement between the members of a technical
committee and is accepted for publication if it is approved by 2/3 of the members of the committee casting
a vote.
An ISO/PAS or ISO/TS is reviewed after three years in order to decide whether it will be confirmed for a
further three years, revised to become an International Standard, or withdrawn. If the ISO/PAS or ISO/TS is
confirmed, it is reviewed again after a further three years, at which time it must either be transformed into an
International Standard or be withdrawn.
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.

ISO/TS 13399-2:2005(E)
Introduction
This Technical Specification defines the terms, properties and definitions for those portions of a cutting tool
that remove material from a workpiece. Cutting items include: replaceable inserts, brazed tips and the cutting
portions of solid cutting tools. The purpose of ISO/TS 13399-2 is to provide a reference dictionary to support
the use of the general information model defined in ISO 13399-1.
A cutting tool is used in a machine to remove material from a workpiece by a shearing action at the cutting
edges of the tool. Cutting tool data that can be described by ISO 13399 include, but are not limited to,
everything between the workpiece and the machine tool. Information about inserts (e.g. regular and irregular
shaped replaceable cutting items), solid tools (e.g. solid drill and solid endmill), assembled tools (e.g. boring
bars, indexable drills and indexable milling cutters), adaptors (e.g. milling arbor and drilling chuck),
components (e.g. shims, screws and clamps) and their relationships can be represented by this standard.
Possible assemblies of the components of a cutting tool are illustrated in Figure 1.
The objective of ISO 13399 is to provide the means to represent the information that describes cutting tools in
a computer-sensible form that is independent from any particular computer system. The representation will
facilitate the processing and exchange of cutting tool data within and between different software systems and
computer platforms and support the application of these data in manufacturing planning, cutting operations
and the supply of tools. The nature of this description makes it suitable not only for neutral file exchange, but
also as a basis for implementing and sharing product databases and for archiving. The methods that are used
for these representations are those developed by ISO TC184/SC4 for the representation of product data by
using standardized information models and reference dictionaries.
An information model is a formal specification of types of ideas, facts and processes which together describe
a portion of interest of the real world and which provides an explicit set of interpretation rules. Information is
knowledge of ideas, facts and/or processes. Data are symbols or functions that represent information for
processing purposes. Data are interpreted to extract information by using rules for how that should be done
and a dictionary to define the terms that identify the data. Everyone in a communication process must use the
same information model, the same set of explicit rules and the same dictionary in order to avoid
misunderstanding. If an information model and its dictionary are written in a computer-sensible language then
[1]
there is the additional benefit that they can be computer-processable .
An engineering information model is therefore a specification for data that establishes the meaning of those
data in a particular engineering context. A model has to be developed by formal methods to ensure that it
meets the needs of the situation that it represents. An engineering information model defines the information
objects that represent the concepts in an engineering application, the attributes of the objects and their
relationships and the constraints that add further meaning. An information model is an abstract concept that
can be used repeatedly for any example of the real-world situation that it represents. An instance of the model
is produced when it is populated with the data items and their values that are applicable to a particular
example of that situation.
ISO 13399 uses the following standards developed by ISO TC184/SC4:
 the EXPRESS language defined in ISO 10303-11 for defining the information model;
 the file format for data exchange derived from the model and defined in ISO 10303-21;
 the data dictionary defined in ISO 13584.
ISO 13399 is intended for use by, among others, tool producers and vendors, and manufacturers and
developers of manufacturing software. ISO 13399 provides a common structure for exchanging data about
cutting tools. The standard is intended to provide for, or improve, several manufacturing activities, including:

 the integration and sharing of data for cutting tools and assemblies between different stages of the
manufacturing cycle and between different software applications;
 the direct import of data from cutting tool suppliers into customer's databases;
 the management of cutting tool information from multiple sources and for multiple applications.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION ISO/TS 13399-2:2005(E)

Cutting tool data representation and exchange —
Part 2:
Reference dictionary for the cutting items
1 Scope
This Technical Specification specifies a reference dictionary for cutting items, together with their descriptive
properties and domains of values, for use in cutting tool data representation. The reference dictionary contains
 definitions and identifications of the classes of cutting items and their features, with an associated
classification scheme,
 definitions and identifications of the data element types that represent the properties of cutting items and
their features, and
 definitions and identifications of domains of values for describing those data element types.
Each class, property or domain of values of this application domain constitutes an entry of the reference
dictionary defined in this Technical Specification. It is associated with a computer-sensible and
human-readable definition, and with a computer-sensible identification. Identification of a dictionary entry
allows unambiguous reference to it from any application that implements the information model defined in
ISO 13399-1.
Definitions and identifications of dictionary entries are defined by means of standard data that consist of
instances of the EXPRESS entity data types defined in the common dictionary schema, resulting from a joint
effort between ISO TC184/SC4/WG2 and IEC SC3D, and in its extensions defined in ISO 13584-24 and
ISO 13584-25.
The following are within the scope of this Technical Specification:
 standard data that represent the various classes of cutting items and cutting item features;
 standard data that represent the various properties of cutting items and cutting item features;
 standard data that represent domains of values used for properties of cutting items and cutting item
features;
 definitions of reference systems for cutting items and their properties;
 one implementation method by which the standard data defined may be exchanged.
NOTE 1 The implementation method by which the standard data defined in this Technical Specification may be
exchanged is given in ISO 10303-21.
The following are outside its scope:
 applications where these standard data may be stored or referenced;
 implementation methods other than the one defined by which the standard data may be exchanged and
referenced;

4 Representation of the ontological concepts as dictionary entries
4.1 General
A concept in the ontology is identified by a name in lower-case characters. The name of a class that
represents the concept in the dictionary is identified by bold, lower-case letters with multiple words joined by
an underscore character.
For example, “cutting item type” is the name of a concept in the ontology, while cutting_item_type is the
identifier of the class in the dictionary that represents the concept.
Cutting items are represented by two main classes: cutting_item_feature, cutting_item_type. The structure
of the classification is provided in Annex B. The definitions of the cutting item classes are provided in Annex C.
4.2 Cutting_item_feature
4.2.1 General
Characteristic of a cutting item that cannot exist independently of the cutting item.
cutting_item_feature has the following subclasses:
 chip_breaker;

 fixing_hole;
 flank;
 gauge_circle;
 inscribed_circle.
4.2.2 chip_breaker
Modification of the face of a cutting item to control or break the chip.
4.2.3 cutting_corner
Transition between two cutting edges.
cutting_corner has the following subclasses:
 chamfered_corner;
 rounded_corner.
