Machine tools — Short-term capability evaluation of machining processes on metal-cutting machine tools ISO 26303:2012

Publication date:   May 29, 2012

Scope

ISO 26303:2012 defines procedures for acceptance of metal-cutting machine tools based on the tests of their capability in machining a specified workpiece (i.e. indirect testing). It gives recommendations for test conditions, applicable measurement systems and the requirements for machine tools.
ISO 26303:2012 is consistent with ISO 22514 (all parts) describing statistical methods for process management and deals with the specific application of those methods to machine tools and machining of a sample batch of test pieces.
