BS ISO 15531-43:2006

Industrial automation systems and integration. Industrial manufacturing management data. Manufacturing flow management data: Data model for flow monitoring and manufacturing data exchange | Status: Current, Under review

1 Scope This part of ISO 15531 provides a datamodel for flow management, and a related set of building blocks, from which are specified standardized datamodels and representations for the planning, scheduling, controlling and monitoring of material and informational flows. This is in contrast with ISO 15531‑42, which provides a time model only. Consequently this part of ISO 15531 provides a representation of data related to flow control and management in manufacturing, through the development of a conceptual flowmodel. The following are within the scope of this part of ISO 15531:

• — representation of data related to the management and control of manufacturingflows.

NOTE — This information is usually provided within the main plant, and exchanged among the different machine tools, or production cells.

The following are outside the scope of this part of ISO 15531:

• — modelling of information related to the external exchanges;
• — modelling of information related to the resource usage made during the manufacturingprocesses;
• — modelling of the information related to the representation of the time.
