Description |
|
Parasolid Format
This format is probably the best format for all Parasolid
based CAD systems such as Solid Edge, SolidWorks, Pro
Engineer, etc. |
|
ACIS Format
This format is best suited to CAD systems based around
the ACIS 3D Modelling Engine, such as Autodesk Inventor.
|
|
IGES Format
A well established neutral format, which can sometimes
be cumbersome due to filesize, etc. |
|
STEP Format
A more recent neutral format that can also support transfer
of additional PDM data. |
|
Stereolithography
The stereolithography format is a transfer format most
used in manufacturing and is a standard input for most
rapid prototyping machines. Although this format is widely
recognised by many software systems, it cannot be imported
into some of the more popular CAD modelling software.
