Let’s break down their features and why they matter to your workflow !

Datakit is committed in the support of STEP for many years and well known for the quality of its read/write STEP converters which cover the processing of wide range of entities in parts and assemblies in graphical and semantic terms.

Our Step reader allows to read files of the STEP Revisions AP203 (Edition 1 and 2), AP214 (up to Edition 3), AP242 (up to Edition 3), AP242 BO XML, including:

• Model géometry / Topology: BRep entities, Face and trimming, Surfaces, Curves, Wireframe, Meshes,
• Assembly: shape representation (with items placement / representation), occurence, relationships, …Graphical attributes: style, colors, assignment, transparency,
• Part properties, validation properties at part and assembly levels, user defined attributes, …
• FDT Graphics, symbols as polylines or placeholder since AP243E3: leader curve, style, texts, saved views,…
• FDT Semantics with AP203E2 and later : geometrical dimensioning and tolerancing, datum elements, notes, associated geometry…
• Step AP242 BO XML (STEP Domain Model): assemblies, product data, properties, metadata, …

Our Step writer allows to write files STEP Revisions AP242 : AP242E1 (Edition 1), AP242E2 (Edition 2) AP242E3 (Edition 3), AP242 BO XML (Domain XML), including:

• Model géometry/ Topology: BRep entities, Face and trimming, Surfaces, Curves, Wireframe, Meshes,
• Assembly: product (with or without proper 3D geometry), metadata, occurence, external reference, …,
• Attributes: graphical attributes, colors, thickness, layer, visibility, invisibility, transparency, …,
• Part properties, validation properties at part and assembly levels, user defined attributes, …,
• FDT Graphics, symbols as polylines or placeholder since AP243E3: leader curve, style, texts, saved views …,
• FDT Semantics with AP203E2 and later: geometrical dimensioning and tolerancing, datum elements, notes, associated geometry…,
• STEP AP242 BO XML (Domain Model): assemblies, product data, properties, metadata ...
