AP 203 Edition 2 -- Configuration Controlled Design

Sample Programs

GEOMETRY

Create a product with the common STEP structure needed to get started with geometry.

AP203E2_CC1

Create a product with all configuration management data required for the original AP-203 Conformance Class One.

ASSEMBLY

Construct an assembly relation between two products, relating the product structure and geometry.

PRINT_ASSY

Print Bill-of-Materials report. Find all engineering assemblies and print their assembly structure as an indented list.

TOLERANCE

Read an existing data file with geometry for a block and hole, then apply dimensions, datums, and tolerances to the faces.

Overview

EXPRESS source and associated files for STEP Part 203 Edition 2: Application Protocol for Configuration controlled 3D design of mechanical parts and assemblies. The original AP 203 was restructured as a modular document and published as the technical specification ISO/TS 10303-203:2005(E). After further rework, this TS will be replaced by a international standard to be published in 2010 as ISO 10303-210:2010(E).

Browse the AP 203e2 schema definitions, or view the EXPRESS source file for the ISO 10303-203:2010 document.

Refer to the first edition of AP203 for recommended practices. The second edition document is available on the ISO web site as well as through national standards bodies.
