Overview
ISO/TS 13399-313:2019 - "Cutting tool data representation and exchange - Part 313: Creation and exchange of 3D models - Burrs" defines a standard approach for creating and exchanging simplified 3D models of burrs (rotary files) for use in NC-programming, CAM simulation and collision detection. It specifies the modelling concept, required parameters and geometric features for burr-type tool items, focusing on nominal dimensions and data exchange requirements rather than detailed manufacturing design.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope: Covers the design concept and property domains for any kind of burrs and the requirements for simplified 3D models. Explicitly excludes 3D models for cutting tools, cutting items, adaptive items, assemblies and applications for storing/referencing the data.
- Modeling principles: Models are built from nominal dimensions (tolerances permitted) and must be capable of parametric variation-single features can be adjusted or removed by changing parameters.
- Coordinate systems & planes: Defines standard reference frames and planes used in modelling:
- PCS (Primary Coordinate System)
- MCS (Mounting Coordinate System)
- CIP (Coordinate system at the cutting part)
- Common planes such as TEP, CLP, HEP and others for consistent orientation and visualization.
- Geometry definitions: Provides parametric outlines for non-cutting and cutting parts and defines many burr geometries (examples include cylindrical, cylindrical round/ball-nose, inverted cone, spherical, conical, disc-shaped and various profile/nose shapes - listed by BTC categories in the document).
- Data exchange: Specifies how simplified 3D models should be prepared for reliable exchange between systems for CAM, simulation and process planning.
- Warnings & limits: Notes that 3D models represent nominal geometry and may not fully match manufactured tool parts - users should account for physical tolerances in simulations.
Practical applications and users
Who benefits:
- Tool manufacturers and catalog vendors wanting standardized 3D representations of burrs for customers.
- CAM programmers and process planners using models for NC-programming, path planning and collision checking.
- Simulation engineers performing virtual machining verification and machine/process simulation.
- CAD/CAM/PLM software vendors implementing neutral exchange formats and tool libraries.
Practical uses:
- Exchange of burr models between CAD/CAM systems
- Virtual mounting and collision simulation in manufacturing planning
- Standardized tool libraries for NC simulation and tool selection
