This Standard establishes practice for the slope of self-holding and steep machine tapers, the detailed dimensions for this type of taper tool shank, the taper socket in the spindle, and the keyways.

This Standard provides for tool holder shank and retention knob assemblies the inch solution to tool holder interchangeability between various machining centers and automatic tool changers.

This Standard defines and describes power presses, their interface, and how to permit interchangeability of bolsters, dies, and tooling components between presses of comparable attributes.

This Standard provides dimensions and fit requirements for many types of turning machine rotating spindles and the work-holding chucks customarily mounted upon them.

This Standard defines and describes gap frame power presses, their interface, and how to permit interchangeability of bolsters, dies, and tooling components between presses of comparable attributes.

This Standard covers definitions, classes of ball screws, recommended combinations of diameters and leads, recommended drawing format, and performance characteristics of ball screw and nut assemblies.

This Standard describes the T-Slots used on machine tools for the mounting of workpieces, fixtures, attachments and accessories. Also lists the bolts, nuts and tongues used in these slots.

This Standard provides tables for Essential Dimensions of Spindle Nose and Tool Shanks, Dimensions of Draw-in Bolt Ends, and Essential Dimensions of Spindle Nose with Large Flanges.

This Standard gives the location and size of mounting features for assembly of various abrasive cutting surfaces to machine tools, using plain or tapped holes. Includes disk sizes 5" to 84" diameter.

This Standard provides for the construction of spindle noses for horizontal boring machines, important dimensions for self holding and steep machine tapers, draw bolts, drive keys, etc.

This Standard describes the dimensions and tolerances of arbors used to mount rotary milling cutters into horizontal spindle machines. Shanks, shafts, keyslots, collars, and arbor nuts are included.

This Standard defines and describes the sizes, capacity, and performance of power operated press brakes used to form metal by bending. Manually operated (specialty) brakes are excluded.

This Standard provides the means for individual axial adjustment of drilling, reaming, and tapping tools, etc. in the spindles of single or multiple spindle heads.

This Standard defines and describes shear size, capacity, and performance of power shears commonly referred to as squaring, guillotine, gap, plate, pivot blade (swing beam), and slitting (non-rotary).

This standard facilitates performance specifications, acceptance, measuring and tracking of Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) machine centers.

This standard provides a set of symbols which may appear on machine tool indicator instruction plates or control buttons.

This standard covers dimensions, areas, and other features suited for the interchangeability of tooling and fixturing between like types & sizes of grinding machines.

This standard establishes fastening and dimensional standards to provide maximum interchangeability between Modular or “Building Block” components.
