This paper outlines the basic development background of the Class 58 locomotive and main design features, with areas of design development resulting from the introduction into service in 1983–85 of the first build of thirty-five locomotives and detail changes in design being applied to the second batch of fifteen locomotives authorized in 1984. This locomotive design developed from a joint exercise between British Rail Engineering Limited (BREL) and the then Chief Mechanical and Electrical Engineer (CM and EE), British Railways Board (BRB) in 1977 which resulted in BREL fully participating in the design development to utilize modern manufacturing methods. The Class 58 was designed by BR specifically for freight duties and is based on a strength underframe with bonnet-type structure and equipment in modular assemblies.

Nowadays modern manufacturing demands advanced computer controller, having higher input language and less proprietary vendor dependencies. STEP stands for Standard for the Exchange of Product model data is the next generation of data model between CAD/CAM and CNC system. STEP is still under research and development all around the world. This paper describes the design, development and testing of an integrated Interface development environment for STEP file using Universal Data Structure, which aims to provide support for machining operation.  The system also aims to provide function of reading and extracting the relevant information associated with the machining data and to write the G-Code file. The sample of machined block is designed from 3D CAD modeler which consisted of features need to be machined from a blank workpiece and saved in the STEP file format. The validation process will be done using the simulation in the Mach3 software.

Manufacturing Methods

Today, manufacturing methods are classified into two groups as conventional and non- conventional manufacturing methods. While turning, milling, and drilling are among the conventional manufacturing methods, processes such as laser, plasma, electro erosion, ultrasonic machining and water jet machining are among non-conventional, namely modern manufacturing methods. The cutting tool does not used in modern manufacturing methods. This situation is an advantage. There are some uncertainties on the machining performance of abrasive types, apart from the superior properties of the method. In this study, the effect of different abrasive types on machining performance in abrasive water jet machining (AWJM) was investigated by using computer aided finite element analysis.
