Issuing/naming Drawings
Issuing/naming Drawings
(OP)
I am in the middle of a disagreement over the issuing of part numbers to parts & drawings.
A collegue that has been working here for many years (I have only recently joined) claims that it is correct ISO practice to take a part and issue it with multiple part numbers and drawings because is it being used on a multiple projects. I disagree. I think that one part should have one part number and one drawing.
Are there any ISO guidelines on this?

RE: Issuing/naming Drawings
I dont know of any standard but i would say that you are correct if the parts are all identical ( including finish colour) What happens in the stores? Do they have a separate location for each part number? Do the stores have to renumber?
Do you or did you work for ATL?

You can look here and do a search on Technical Drawings. ISO 1011 might be a place to start. Off hand I do not recall if it contains specifics on part numbering schemes.

Yes I did...I remember that you took my old job at Fairline. Are you still there? I've moved on to MUCH better things.
PSE, Thanks - I'll have a good look.

I would repost in forum1103: Drafting Standards, GD&T & Tolerance Analysis, you may get better suggestions. Can your colleague cite a specific standard and paragraph?
