What is STEP?

STEP (Standard for the Exchange of Product Data) is an ISO standard for the computer-interpretable representation and exchange of product manufacturing information. It is commonly used for sharing product data between different CAD/CAM/CAE systems and for long-term archival of product data. STEP files aim to facilitate interoperability and data exchange in engineering and manufacturing.
