Detailed Description

Describes an axis in 3D space.
An axis is defined by:

its origin (also referred to as its "Location point"), and
its unit vector (referred to as its "Direction" or "main Direction").
An axis is used:
to describe 3D geometric entities (for example, the
axis of a revolution entity). It serves the same purpose
as the STEP function "axis placement one axis", or
to define geometric transformations (axis of
symmetry, axis of rotation, and so on).
For example, this entity can be used to locate a geometric entity
or to define a symmetry axis.
