Standard parts

(OP)
My company would like to have standard part library and we use a plm interface. Which will be a better way to get the standard library from your point of view.We have have a unique numbering system which will be applicable for standard pars also.
If my comp. purchases the standard libraries of UGS what problem may i face.How does UGS standard libraries work?

Has any body devolopped a standards library?How it is done?

RE: Standard parts

We had one developed using GRIP that was totally customizable. All of the fields used in the part attributes were defined in the master files. Any shape that could be generated with 12 or less dimensions could theoretically by defined in the program.
It was developed by UGS for IR under contract. Contact UGS for information on their Standard Parts GRIP program written by Gary Hatt.

RE: Standard parts

(OP)
Thank you looslib,
But how will it work with PLM interface, Does the grip program generate a new file for the defined standard part?
Does the user  needs any special licences?

RE: Standard parts

In our program, each part was an individual creation, no family tables.
The user would only need a GRIP execute license, unless you wanted to change the way the program worked, in which case you wouls alos need a GRIP development license.
