hexagon logo

CAD cannot be created

I'm using pcdmis 4.1. whenever i change the file extension in catia to .iges, or .stp, then import the model in pcdmis. I never get what I want.
For instance, when I import .iges, I get a message, translation failed. Then another screen pops up, CAD cannot be created. When I import the Hexagon block from the WAI folder, no problem. Does anyone know how I can fix this? When I import a step model, it looks as though everything gets translated correctly, but there is NO model in the graphics display screen. CAn anyone help me fix that problem?

  • Did anyone go and mess with any of the settings? And just to get this right you have been able to in the past accept iges files from catia into pcdmis? I have only had issues a couple times with importing models. I would try downloading the trial version of Rhino3d and import your file into there and export it out. From there you can try to import it into pcdmis. I know it is a little lengthy but this will help to see if it is all outside sources of iges/step or just a couple. Hopefully this works.
