ISO 13399

Standards & Data Formats

International standard for cutting tool data representation and exchange

Global standard for representing and exchanging cutting-tool data using item/feature classes and a maintained electronic dictionary. Addresses machine-readability across tool types.
Advantages

  • International reach
  • Unified property dictionary
  • Broad tooling scope

Considerations

  • Some item classes are too generic for receiving systems
  • External overlays (e.g., GTC) emerged to fill gaps
  • ~10% of parameters still misaligned vs. DIN

Integration with StOB
ISO 13399 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.
