Overview
ISO/TR 10314-1:1990 - Industrial automation - Shop floor production - Part 1 - provides a reference model and a methodology to identify where new or revised manufacturing standards are needed. Focused on discrete parts manufacturing and the physical production (shop floor) of parts, this Technical Report (type 3) offers a conceptual framework - not a prescriptive system design - to guide standards development and to help integrate manufacturing systems across suppliers and users.
Key Topics
- Scope & Field of Application: Targets Shop Floor Production within the broader manufacturing lifecycle; emphasizes generic, open-ended, technology‑independent modelling.
- Reference Model (SFPM): The Shop Floor Production Model describes subjects, actions and interactions on the shop floor to identify standardization needs.
- Generic Activity Model (GAM): A model for describing execution of activities and interactions between shop floor functions and interfacing functions.
- Methodology for Extraction: Procedures and a matrix representation are defined to extract and prioritize areas where standards are required.
- Terminology & Abbreviations: Standardized definitions and abbreviations (e.g., SFPM, GAM, ST, TF, TP) to support consistent interpretation.
- Objectives & Standards Viewpoints: Nine viewpoints guide what to standardize: Safety, Environment, Compatibility, Performance, Operability, Maintainability, Reliability, Qualifications, Description.
- Twelve Manufacturing Functions: The report identifies twelve functions (e.g., Corporate management, Product design & production engineering, Production management, Maintenance, Shop Floor Production) to frame where standards may apply.
Applications
ISO/TR 10314-1:1990 is practical for:
- Standards developers and ISO/IEC technical committees defining future manufacturing standards.
- Manufacturing engineers and system integrators who need a conceptual framework to map integration points on the shop floor.
- Suppliers and end users in discrete parts manufacturing assessing gaps in interoperability, safety, or performance standards.
- Project planners and quality managers who need a methodology to prioritize standardization activities (e.g., defining interfaces, ensuring traceability, or addressing environmental and safety requirements).
Use cases include identifying candidate topics for standard development, aligning terminology across organizations, and creating a structured approach to integrate automated shop floor systems.
Related Standards
- ISO/TR 10314 is published by ISO and developed by ISO/TC 184 (Industrial automation systems and integration).
- ISO/TR 10314 is delivered in two parts: Part 1 (reference model & methodology) and Part 2 (application of the model and extraction methodology).
