ISO 230 is titled:
"Test code for machine tools"
This standard series provides methods and criteria for testing the accuracy, repeatability, and behavior of machine tools. It consists of multiple parts, each focused on a specific aspect of machine performance. Some key parts include:
This standard is essential for machine tool manufacturers, CNC operators, maintenance engineers, and industrial quality inspectors to evaluate how accurately and consistently machines perform under specified conditions.
Modern industries demand high-precision machining, whether in aerospace, automotive, medical devices, or tooling. If your machines don’t perform consistently, the result is:
ISO 230 helps organizations:
