Comprehensive standard for cutting tool data exchange and integration
StOB (Standard OpenBase) is a data format developed by CIMSOURCE and partners to enable seamless, standardized exchange of cutting tool data across CAD/CAM and NC process chains. It implements DIN 4000 and ISO 13399 standards and serves as the backbone for platforms like ToolsUnited, ensuring interoperability and consistency in digital manufacturing
Advantages
Comprehensive coverage of all tooling data elements (geometry, technology, 2D/3D, e-commerce)
Standardized approach based on DIN 4000 and ISO 13399 for global compatibility
Long-term stability and continuous evolution aligned with industry needs
Considerations
Requires adherence to international standards for full interoperability
Integration with StOB
StOB 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.
