Parts

Part is the AVEVA Marine name of each piece that finally has to be manufactured. It is a common denomination of both plate parts and profile parts. However, it may happen these names are used in a less strict way. Part is often used as a synonym of plate part and a profile part may be called only profile.

There are two systems for naming of parts as described in detail in About Naming. The AVEVA Marine name is the internal name by which a part is stored in the data banks. The part name is the production oriented name marked on the part in the workshop. From a technical point of view this is an attribute that is formed when the part name is asked for.

The part name is normally built up by a number of constituents, for example, names of blocks and assemblies, separated by delimiters. One position of the name distinguishes the name from that of other parts going into the same assembly. This is the individual number of the part (or of a number of identical parts). This individual portion of the part name is in AVEVA Marine called the position number (otherwise often called the piece number). The position number may be a string.
