Dave Parrish Posted June 21, 2002 Share Posted June 21, 2002 Has anyone tried importing a CATIA model into IronCAD? I see that that capability is on the option list for Import, but I have not tried it yet. We have a project that will be made much easier if we can import the customer's CATIA model. We can then simply build the machine around the part and off we go! Otherwise... big chore ahead. If you have imported a CATIA file, please let me know what kind of success you had. Thanks, Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Parrish Posted June 21, 2002 Author Share Posted June 21, 2002 OOPS.... Sorry, folks... The customer file is not CATIA afterall... its UniGraphics, which is NOT on the list of import options. Is it possible to import UG files into IronCAD? Or, is it possible to take it through another system and on into IronCAD? Thanks...

Guest IronKevin Posted June 21, 2002 Share Posted June 21, 2002 Unigraphics can export Parasolid neutral files (.x_t) which should import nicely into IronCAD. IronKevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Parrish Posted June 22, 2002 Author Share Posted June 22, 2002 Thanks, Kevin... I'll give that route a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don_temple Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 A client and I want to try opening a Catia file to work out the bugs for future projects. Does the Catia translator have a time limit or license fee like the Granite translator used to (and maybe still does)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do believe but check with IronDudes, but is works up til CatiaV4.2 not 5. Like I said I don;t know if this has been updated in last release.

Guest IronKevin Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Currently it only supports import/export Catia V4.x .model files. IK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
