Specifies characteristics for clamping devices used on machine tools
DIN 4000-190 groups fixtures by style and defines their properties, distinguishing a “basic fixture” (generic use) from a “final fixture assembly” (part-specific). It specifies changeable parts with a property list and uses BOM definitions for replaceable assembly parts.
Advantages
Clear split between generic vs. part-specific fixtures
Property-driven descriptions and BOM enable consistent data exchange and CAM planning
Considerations
Must stay aligned with clamping elements (DIN 4000-191) and DIN/ISO harmonization work so property lists and codes remain interoperable across catalogs, CAM, and container packages.
Integration with StOB
DIN 4000-190 is fully supported within the StOB framework, enabling seamless integration with modern CAM systems and data management platforms. Our implementation provides enhanced compatibility and extended functionality for manufacturing workflows.
