ISO 16792

International standard that specifies requirements for the preparation, revision and presentation of digital product definition data.

Adapted from ASME Y14.41

Legitimize the use of 3D-models as an method of conveying product and manufacturing information

Supports a true paperless environment

Solid model only

Solid model and 2D Drawing in digital format

Digital Product Definition Data Set

All information necessary to define a product, such as geometric data, revision history, and lifecycle state.

Annotation Feature

With the Annotation Features you can manage model annotations.

An Annotation feature consists of one or more Annotation Elements, such as:

Driven Dimensions

Notes, Symbols and Surface Finish

GTOL’s and Datum Tags

Annotation plane

Annotation features must reference an annotation plane.

Defines the orientation of the annotation respect to the 3D-model.

Driving Dimension Annotations

Converts feature dimensions to annotation elements.

This type of annotation element cannot be created

with the Annotation Feature, instead you right

click on a feature and select “ Create Driving Dimension AE”.

The annotation element then become embedded in the feature.

Note! Only dimensions oriented prior to the active annotation plane are created.

View Manager

Tool to manage:

The display of annotations

Simplified Representations

Layers

Saved views

Cross sections

Use the “All” tab to create combined View States

Layer

Use layers to control and display annotations.

Default layer

def_layer layer_ae_driving_dim

Rule layer

Create rule to collect annotations in a layer

Manuel layer

Active Layer

You can choose to show the current layer status in a combined view state.

2D- Drawings

Still need to create 2D-Drawings for a foreseeable time.

Annotations shown automatically

Demonstration

1. View a finished “3D-Drawing”

2. Create a “3D-Drawing”

3. View the “3D-Drawing” in ProductView
