What is STEP? (Taken from ISO 10303 -1 Introduction) ISO 10303 is an International Standard for the computer-interpretable representation of product information and for the exchange of product data. The objective is to provide a neutral mechanism capable of describing products throughout their life cycle. This mechanism is suitable not only for neutral file exchange, but also as a basis for implementing and sharing product databases, and as a basis for archiving. 2005 -01 -31 Copyright LKSoft.

Information units and views in STEP Original paper from Julian Fowler (PDT Solutions / UK), 1996 • the STEP Integrated Resources comprise a single model for product data, • this model is based on an underlying framework - the "Generic Product Data Model", and • the model supports product data applications (Application Protocols) through different, specific usages of generic constructs 2005 -01 -31 Copyright LKSoft. Ware Gmb. H, 2005 35

The main "Information units" of the STEP Integrated Resources 2005 -01 -31 Copyright LKSoft. Ware Gmb. H, 2005 36

Product and product context • to identify a product as being of interest, and give it a name and a description • to characterize the context in which the product and its associated data exist and are valid • Def: Product - a thing or substance produced by a natural or artificial process 2005 -01 -31 Copyright LKSoft. Ware Gmb. H, 2005 37

Product and product context • AP 214 -example #1=APPLICATION_CONTEXT('mechanical design'); #3=PRODUCT_CONTEXT('', #1, 'mechanical'); #8=PRODUCT('A 4000030000', 'Traction', $, (#3)); 2005 -01 -31 Copyright LKSoft. Ware Gmb. H, 2005 38

Three ways of thinking about products • how the product is classified or categorized • how the product is presented to the market • the technical description of the product for the purpose of design, engineering, manufacturing, operations, maintenance, etc. 2005 -01 -31 Copyright LKSoft. Ware Gmb. H, 2005 41

Categorization of products Note: Product category is no longer used for general classification of a product but only to provide general categories such as Part, Document, Product_as_individual, Chemical Substance, etc 2005 -01 -31 Copyright LKSoft. Ware Gmb. H, 2005 42
