Overview

This part of ISO 5436 is a geometrical product specification (GPS) standard and is to be regarded as a general GPS standard (see ISO/TR 14638). It influences chain link 6 of the chain of standards on roughness, waviness and primary profiles. The ISO/GPS Masterplan given in ISO/TR 14638 gives an overview of the ISO/GPS system of which this document is a part. The fundamental rules of ISO/GPS given in ISO 8015 apply to this document and the default decision rules given in ISO 14253-1 apply to specifications made in accordance with this document, unless otherwise indicated. This part of ISO 5436, together with ISO 5436-1, introduces two new measurement standards: a) Type E, for calibrating the profile co-ordinate system; b) Type F, for calibrating software. This part of ISO 5436 is concerned with software measurement standards. This document (EN ISO 5436-2:2012) has been prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 213 "Dimensional and geometrical product specifications and verification" (secretariat: DS, Denmark) with the participation of German experts, in collaboration with Technical Committee CEN/TC 290 "Dimensional and geometrical product specification and verification", the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR (France). The responsible national committee is Working Committee NA 152-03-03 AA "Oberflächen" ("Surfaces") at the Fundamental Technical Standards Committee (NATG) at DIN.
