Standard data creation and update procedure


Scope
The scope of this procedure is the creation and update of all standard CAD/CAM/CAE data, which includes two-dimensional symbols, drawing frames, common notes, and three-dimensional models of standard items such as valves, pumps, etc.

Content
This procedure should describe how CAD/CAM/CAE standard data is defined, specified, and organized into different groups. The procedure must ensure that the standard data, especially the definitions of bought-out items and standard assemblies, fully reflect the company's engineering requirements and not merely system convenience. Rigorous checking and verification should be specified to ensure that both the CAD/CAM/CAE definition and the engineering content are correct.

Checklist
  • Check that the requirement cannot be met by existing standard data
  • Verify the engineering requirement: is it general or just project-specific?
