CATIA R12SP4 to Unigraphics NX2
CATIA R12SP4 to Unigraphics NX2
(OP)
We have a supplier who is unable to read our CATIA STEP files (203 or 214) successfully into UG NX2. They say there are a number of surfaces importing untrimmed.
However, if we take the same STEP file to Solidworks and create a Parasolid, then import to UG, it works fine.
Any ideas of how to make the STEP import correctly?
Thanks.

Convert the UG part to Parasolid. Open it in SolidWorks. Export STEP file from SolidWorks.
Another option would be to convert the UG part to Parasolid. Import the Parasolid into a new UG part. Export new UG part to STEP.
I hope that this helps!

Personally, I'd stick with the Parasolid model, as that is native UG math, whereas STEP has different 'flavors', depending upon the software from which it was exported.
