DIN SPEC

Overview

This topic has been submitted as a request for the development of a DIN SPEC according to the PAS procedure. DIN SPECs in accordance with the PAS procedure are developed within DIN SPEC (PAS)-consortiums set up on a temporary basis. In the attached business plan you will find detailed information on the planned project as well as concrete time limits for commenting on the business plan (four-week commentary period) and for registering for the kick-off. This document will be developed and approved by the authors named in the business plan. This DIN SPEC specifies requirements for the digitalization of the shoe production process. It will define a format for storing digital lasts within a uniform system of coordinates. Comparable dimensions can be obtained based on this data, which enables a uniform classification of the lasts. This DIN SPEC includes specifications on data type, data format, the data collection process and the definition of data accuracy and data quality. The accuracy of the applied data can be determined by means of the value system described in this DIN SPEC. In addition, this DIN SPEC provides for a uniform classification of foot types based on foot scans. This includes requirements for taking measurements and checking the consistency of scan results. The DIN SPEC defines all digital steps that are part of the shoe production process, from the foot scan to the digital generation of data to the actual production (interfaces, data flows) and production processes.
