CATIA V5 translator to SolidWorks NEEDED!
(OP)
Does anyone know of a bi-directional translator that takes a CATIA V5 model and translates every-little-thing to SolidWorks? It has to be able to translate EVERYTHING, all features. I would greatly appreciate the help.
thanks.
thanks.

Suggest you post this in the SolidWorks forum.

You can bring it in as dumb geometry (via step or iges), but all edits will not be parametric. If you want to move a hole you'll have to fill the old one with a protrusion and create the hole in the new position.
The only way you'll get it parametric is to have someone remodel everything.

Also, you'll have to pay something like a quarter million dollars (at least in the USA) in total to get the product fully functional. Luckily you have the option to attempt to fully configure this product to your own custom specifications, although they tend to get finicky after the 12 year mark. Good luck!
