Model validation

How do I export a stp file with surfaces.

  • You mean like exporting a point cloud? I'm not sure you can do that as an .stp within PC-DMIS. You can export xyz data quite easily. You can spend quite a bit of time healing files for an .stl export, but that may depend on license options...
  • What are you doing to show where your model is coming from? I've just got a blurb in my report header that spits out the model location by using this command: ="Model Location : "+GETPROGRAMINFO("CADMODELFILE") This reports the full path and file name of the model. There is an issue where it actually reports the first model in the tree when viewed in the CAD Assembly editor, so move your part model to the top if you add fixture models or something.
