TS 3379/T1

TS 3379/T1 is a vocabulary standard focused on the terms used for equipment in vine cultivation and wine making. In this kind of document, the primary purpose is not to specify machine performance, but to standardise the technical language used to identify equipment consistently across production, maintenance, purchasing, and training contexts.

Technical context of vine and wine equipment

Vine cultivation equipment covers a broad range of hand tools and mechanised machines used for planting, pruning, tying, spraying, soil working, harvesting, and transport. In wine making, the relevant equipment includes systems used for crushing, pressing, fermentation, transfer, filtration, storage, and bottling. Clear terminology matters because the same item may be called by different names in different regions, and some terms may describe either a function or a physical machine component.

From the title alone, this standard can be understood as organising the vocabulary for this specialised field. Such standards are especially useful in catalogues, technical translation, training materials, and maintenance documentation, where shared wording reduces ambiguity. In general technical terms, a vocabulary standard does not explain how a machine operates; it helps users speak about parts, functions, and equipment names in a consistent way.

• Naming of tools and machines used in viticulture
• Technical terms for wine-making equipment
• Consistent terminology for technical communication
• Shared wording for catalogues, training, and documentation
