STEP AP203 Edition 2 Translators for CATIA V4, CADDS, and UGNX incorporate modular extensions including translation of colors, layers, groups, 3D annotation and validation properties. It also harmonizes AP203 standard with AP214 with regard to meta data changes which conform to PDM Schema format. Edition 2 defines protocols for construction history and geometric and dimensional tolerancing, providing foundation for additional future capabilities.
Original Press Release:
Theorem Steps Up to Edition 2
The immediate availability of Theorem Solutions' STEP AP203 Edition 2 translators for CATIA V4, CADDS and UGNX underlines the company's ability to deliver world class product data translation solutions using both direct and standards based methods.
The latest translators have been developed specifically to incorporate modular extensions that have been implemented in STEP AP203. These include the translation of colours, layers, groups, 3D annotation and validation properties, which are now incorporated in the new STEP AP203 Edition 2 standard.
STEP AP203 Edition 2 also harmonises the AP203 standard with AP214, especially with regard to meta data changes, which now conform to the PDM Schema format. Beyond this, Edition 2 defines protocols for construction history and geometric and dimensional tolerancing, providing the foundation for additional future capabilities.
Theorem's STEP development is undertaken against the background of its membership of the CAx Implementers Forum - through which the interoperability of different vendors' STEP products is tested and verified. As a result, users can be confident in the ongoing effectiveness of Theorem STEP based translators within their production environments.
Announcing the availability of Theorem's STEP AP203 Edition 2 translators, Theorem's General Manager, Keith Jeacock said: "The mechanical design industry demands both direct and indirect translators. Theorem meets these needs with a range of world class translation products. The new STEP AP203 Edition 2 adaptors reflect our commitment and ability to provide the data translation solutions required by our customers."
