The series of standards provided by ISO 10303, commonly known as STEP, enables the data exchange between CAD systems. Elysium supports the precise import and export of STEP data, including application protocols AP203, AP214, and AP242 to and from a variety of CAx formats.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
