Industrial automation systems and integration — Physical device control — Data model for computerized numerical controllers — Part 11: Process data for milling

ISO 14649-11:2004 specifies the technology-specific data elements needed as process data for milling. Together with the general process data described in ISO 14649-10, it describes the interface between a computerized numerical controller and the programming system (i.e. CAM system or shop floor programming system) for milling. It can be used for milling operations on all types of machines, be it milling machines, machining centres, or lathes with motorized tools capable of milling. The scope of ISO 14649-11:2004 does not include any other technologies, like turning, grinding, or EDM. These technologies will be described in further parts of ISO 14649. The subject of the milling_schema, which is described in ISO 14649-11:2004, is the definition of technology-specific data types representing the machining process for milling and drilling. This includes both milling of freeform surfaces and milling of prismatic workpieces (also known as 2 1/2-D milling). Not included in this schema are the following: geometric items; representations; manufacturing features; executable objects; base classes which are common for all technologies. They are referenced from ISO 10303's generic resources and ISO 14649-10. The description of process data is done using the EXPRESS language as defined in ISO 10303-11. The encoding of the data is done using ISO 10303-21.

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.

ISO 14649-11 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 184, Industrial automation systems and

integration, Subcommittee SC 1, Physical device control.

This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 14649-11:2003), of which it constitutes a minor

revision.

ISO 14649 consists of the following parts, under the general title Industrial automation systems and

integration — Physical device control — Data model for computerized numerical controllers:

 Part 1: Overview and fundamental principles
 Part 10: General process data
 Part 11: Process data for milling
 Part 12: Process data for turning
 Part 111: Tools for milling machines
 Part 121: Tools for turning

Gaps in the numbering of parts were left to allow further additions. The future Parts 2 and 3 will be for

language bindings according to ISO 10303 methods. Part 10 is the ISO 10303 Application Reference Model

(ARM) for process-independent data. ISO 10303 ARMs for specific technologies are added after Part 10. The

future Part 50 will be the ISO 10303 Application Interpreted Model (AIM) for process-independent data.

ISO 10303 AIMs for specific technologies are added after Part 50.

ISO 14649 is harmonised with ISO 10303 in the common field of Product Data over the whole life cycle.

ISO 14649-11:2004(E)
Introduction

Modern manufacturing enterprises are built from facilities spread around the globe, which contain equipment

from hundreds of different manufacturers. Immense volumes of product information must be transferred

between the various facilities and machines. Today’s digital communications standards have solved the

problem of reliably transferring information across global networks. For mechanical parts, the description of

product data has been standardised by ISO 10303. This leads to the possibility of using standard data

throughout the entire process chain in the manufacturing enterprise. Impediments to realising this principle are

the data formats used at the machine level. Most computer numerical control (CNC) machines are

programmed in the ISO 6983 “G and M code” language. Programs are typically generated by computer-aided

manufacturing (CAM) systems that use computer-aided design (CAD) information. However, ISO 6983 limits

program portability for three reasons. First, the language focuses on programming the tool center path with

respect to machine axes, rather than the machining process with respect to the part. Second, the standard

defines the syntax of program statements, but in most cases leaves the semantics ambiguous. Third, vendors

usually supplement the language with extensions that are not covered in the limited scope of ISO 6983.

ISO 14649 is a new model of data transfer between CAD/CAM systems and CNC machines, which replaces

ISO 6983. It remedies the shortcomings of ISO 6983 by specifying machining processes rather than machine

tool motion, using the object-oriented concept of Workingsteps. Workingsteps correspond to high-level

machining features and associated process parameters. CNCs are responsible for translating Workingsteps to

axis motion and tool operation. A major benefit of ISO 14649 is its use of existing data models from ISO

10303. As ISO 14649 provides a comprehensive model of the manufacturing process, it can also be used as

the basis for a bi- and multi-directional data exchange between all other information technology systems.

ISO 14649 represents an object oriented, information and context preserving approach for NC-programming,

that supersedes data reduction to simple switching instructions or linear and circular movements. As it is

object- and feature oriented and describes the machining operations executed on the workpiece, and not

machine dependent axis motions, it will be running on different machine tools or controllers. This compatibility

will spare all data adaptations by postprocessors, if the new data model is correctly implemented on the NC-

controllers. If old NC programs in ISO 6983 are to be used on such controllers, the corresponding interpreters

shall be able to process the different NC program types in parallel.

ISO TC184/SC1/WG7 envisions a gradual evolution from ISO 6983 programming to portable feature-based

programming. Early adopters of ISO 14649 will certainly support data input of legacy “G and M codes”

manually or through programs, just as modern controllers support both command-line interfaces and graphical

user interfaces. This will likely be made easier as open-architecture controllers become more prevalent.

Therefore, ISO 14649 does not include legacy program statements, which would otherwise dilute the

effectiveness of the standard.

Part 11:
Process data for milling
1 Scope

This part of ISO 14649 specifies the technology-specific data elements needed as process data for milling.

Together with the general process data described in ISO 14649-10, it describes the interface between a

computerised numerical controller and the programming system (i.e. CAM system or shop floor programming

system) for milling. It can be used for milling operations on all types of machines, be it milling machines,

machining centers, or lathes with motorised tools capable of milling. The scope of this part does not include

any other technologies, like turning, grinding, or EDM. These technologies will be described in further parts of

ISO 14649.

The subject of the milling_schema, which is described in this part of ISO 14649, is the definition of technology-

specific data types representing the machining process for milling and drilling. This includes both milling of

freeform surfaces as well as milling of prismatic workpieces (also known as 2½D-milling). Not included in this

schema are geometric items, representations, manufacturing features, executable objects, and base classes

which are common for all technologies. They are referenced from ISO 10303’s generic resources and ISO

14649-10. The description of process data is done using the EXPRESS language as defined in ISO 10303-11.

The encoding of the data is done using ISO 10303-21.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
Finishing

A milling operation used to cut a part. The finishing operation usually follows a roughing operation. The goal of

finishing is to reach the surface quality required, cf. roughing.
3.2
Roughing

A milling operation used to cut a part. While the aim of roughing is to remove large quantities of material in a

short time, the surface quality is usually not important. The roughing operation is usually followed by a

finishing operation, cf. finishing.

cutspeed: Cutting speed of the tool, the speed of spindle converted into a linear speed.

spindle: Rotational speed of the tool. As defined for rot_speed_measure, positive

values indicate tool rotation in mathematical positive direction of the c axis,
i. e. counter-clockwise motion if looking from the tool holder to the
workpiece. Note that usual cutting tools require clockwise motion so the
value of this attribute will typically be negative.

4.2.6 Milling type operation

This is the base class of all operations for milling. It includes all necessary attributes to describe technology

and strategy. It is a subtype of entity milling_machining_operation.

In general, there are two types of machining operations: roughing and finishing. The roughing is to remove all

material from the original raw piece surface down to the bottom or side of the feature minus the finishing

allowance in multiple passes. The finishing will then remove the finish allowance to yield the final surface of

the feature. In case of pre-cast features, e.g. pre-cast holes and pockets, roughing operation need to be one

pass. This special condition is considered in the 2½D milling strategy with the attribute allow_multiple_passes.
