IEC 62832-1:20 20定义了数字工厂框架（DF框架）的一般原则，这是一组模型元素（DF参考模型）和生产系统建模的规则。 该DF框架定义: ？生产系统资产模型； ？不同生产系统资产之间关系的模型； ？关于生产系统资产的信息流。 DF框架不涵盖建筑结构、输入资源（如原材料、装配零件）、消耗品、在制品或最终产品的表示。 它适用于任何工业部门（例如航空工业、汽车、化工、木材）的三种类型的生产过程（连续控制、批量控制和离散控制）。

IEC 62832-1:2020 defines the general principles of the Digital Factory framework (DF framework), which is a set of model elements (DF reference model) and rules for modelling production systems.
This DF framework defines:
？ a model of production system assets;
？ a model of relationships between different production system assets;
？ the flow of information about production system assets.
The DF framework does not cover representation of building construction, input resources (such as raw production material, assembly parts), consumables, work pieces in process, nor end products.
It applies to the three types of production processes (continuous control, batch control, and discrete control) in any industrial sector (for example aeronautic industries, automotive, chemicals, wood).
