1. The need for standards in mechanical engineering
1.1 General context
Standardization is the offspring of industrialization, and in particular of the mechanical engineering industry. It has always accompanied its development. It is thus the image of mechanical engineering culture, integrating not only technological but also socio-economic objectives into its development.
The essential need, which has been constant from the outset, is to rationalize repetitive technical problems between customers and suppliers.
Gradually, standardization is building a genuine technical reference tool that is increasingly universal and representative of the existing situation, at the service of all (nearly 11,000 international standards).

Producing to sell, in the countries of the European Union and around the world, is not without its technical and administrative obstacles in the form of standards.
Complying with standards throughout a product's life cycle, from design to disposal, is thus becoming a necessity to promote a harmonious development policy.
