Importing/exporting geometrical objects

In Geometry module you can import and export geometrical objects from/into BREP, IGES, STEP files. The mechanisms of import and export are implemented via plug-ins, which gives you the opportunity to expand the range of available formats by adding more plug-ins (for example, CATIA 5).  

 

To import geometrical objects from a BREP, IGES, STEP file:

 

From the File menu choose Import. In the opening dialog box Import select the required format of the file for importation and search for a *.brep, *.iges or *.step  file.

 

 

Select the required file and click Open. Your file will be imported in the module and its contents (geometrical object) will be displayed in the Object Browser.

 

 

To export geometrical objects into a BREP, IGES, STEP file:

 

Select the object you wish to export, then from the File menu choose Export. In the opening dialog box Export define the required format, the name and the location of the file for exportation.

 

 

Click Save to confirm your exportation.
