For the sake of clarity, the number of one workpiece will be referred to in the following. Nevertheless, it is also possible to produce a set of parts which consists of more than one workpiece.

3.2.1

dead centre

the point where the upper tool is during its movement:

  • either nearest/closest to the lower tool (generally, it corresponds to the end of the closing stroke), known as bottom dead centre (BDC);
  • or furthest from the lower tool (generally, it corresponds to the end of the opening stroke), known as top dead centre (TDC)

Note 1 to entry: Tool/punch is replaced by upper tool.

Note 2 to entry: Die is replaced by lower tool.

3.2.2

job order

unit of scheduled work that is dispatched for execution (IEC 62264-3:2016(en))

Note: A job order is the concrete implementation of a set of information that a machine needs to execute a task. This information can be composed of one or more programs or recipes, or it can consist only of metadata and parameters (production-specific) or of all of these. Several job orders can be running at the same time.

3.2.3

run

completed execution or completed subset of the execution carried out according to the data provided with the job order. [SOURCE: OPC 40001-3 v.1.0.0, 3.2.2]

EXAMPLE 1 The machine needs one cycle, e.g. one stroke, to complete the forming process on the machine for one workpiece the run consists of one repetitive cycle.

EXAMPLE 2 The machine needs several cycles, e.g. five strokes on a spindle press, to complete the forming process on the machine for one workpiece – the run consists of five repetitive cycles (monitored process values of each cycle can be different).

3.2.4

tooling stage

representation of a coherent local tooling unit within one machine

Note 1 to entry: A machine consists of at least one stage; a run through in succession with multiple stages in a machine is possible.

3.2.5

tool

combination of upper tool and lower tool

Note 1 to entry: Tool/punch is replaced by upper tool.

Note 2 to entry: Die is replaced by lower tool.

3.2.6

function

operation of a machine or a part of a machine which is specific or required for the intended machine task

[SOURCE: ISO 16092-1:2017, 3.4.3]

3.2.7

cycle

complete movement of the slide and other devices of the machine used for production (e.g. cushions, workpiece ejectors) including feeding and removal of the material or workpiece

Note 1 to entry: Press is replaced by machine.

Note 2 to entry: A cycle is represented by characteristic positions.

EXAMPLE 1 For hydraulic or pneumatic machines or mechanical servo machines, along a programmed motion path from the initial start position back to the same position.

EXAMPLE 2 For mechanical machines with clutch, from the cycle start position [normally top dead center] through to bottom dead center back to the cycle stop position.
