ISO/TS 10303-1657:2006

Industrial automation systems and integration — Product data representation and exchange — Part 1657: Application module: Component feature

Scope

ISO/TS 10303-1657:2006 specifies the application module for
Component feature.




ISO/TS 10303-1657:2006 deals with the representation of component features and the their relationships in a
physical design view. This is a fundamental enabling model for further
specialization in ISO 10303. This application model supports specialization of
component features as terminals enabling application of connectivity properties and
requirements and supports assignment of the relationship between a component feature its
assignment to a part feature in the physical usage view. This is an application of
intellectual property control and management for the design organization as it allows the
design organization to maintain one master copy from which published models or catalogue data may be derived.




The following are within the scope of
ISO/TS 10303-1657:2006:


the definition of features of components in the assembly of a design view;the relationship between component features of various kinds such
as make from;
the assignment of component features to part features in a usage
view;
the definition of component terminals and information if they can
be exchanged with other terminals termincals, called swapping.
