CONVERTING METHOD BETWEEN THREE-DIMENSIONAL CAD DATA AND INTERNATIONAL STANDARD DATA AND INTERNATIONAL STANDARD DATA CONVERTER

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To realize conversion between various types of CAD data and ISO (International standard data) neither too much nor too little by inputting the component information of CAD data having no definition destination in ISO data structure in a definition area storing the types of components, etc., in the ISO. ;SOLUTION: An ISO data converter is constituted of a CAD data file 20 storing data created by a three-dimensional CAD system, a conversion processor 10 to convert the CAD data into the ISO data and an ISO data file 30 to store the ISO data. The conversion processor 10 is constituted of a computer and an input part 11 of the CAD data, and a CAD/ISO data converting part 12, an ISO data format storage part 13 and an output part 14 of the ISO data are provided. The CAD data is inputted in a corresponding part of ISO data structure by the CAD/ISO data converting part 12. The CAD data having no corresponding part in the ISO data structure is simultaneously converted into the ISO data by a specified conversion format and inputted into the description part of a specified component definition area.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2000,JPO
