CONVERT A PART CREATED USING PRO-E TO CATIAV5

CONVERT A PART CREATED USING PRO-E TO CATIAV5

CONVERT A PART CREATED USING PRO-E TO CATIAV5

(OP)
CAN SOMEONE HELP ME AS HOW TO CONVERT A PART CREATED USING PRO-E TO CATIAV5.THE RESULTING CATPART SHOULD HAVE SAME AXIS AND SAME ORIENTATIN AS IT WAS HAVING IN PRO-E.I have already tried it by converting it step and iges, but the problem is the default axis is getting changed and as a result am getting the model in catia with different orientation. i.e y axis in pro-e is getting converted to z- axis in catia,therefore I tried by creating a new coordinate system in pro-e  and selecting the created coordinate system while converting it to *step* format. But still i am not getting the same orientation.I think The axis system which i am creating i pro-e is not the right one. Can someone help me in this issue!

RE: CONVERT A PART CREATED USING PRO-E TO CATIAV5

Catia is only going to read what is output.  I know that Catia can not export around an axis system.  However, it will export around an assembly position.  Try to output your file in pro e from the top of the assembly.

Derek

Wouldn't it be a bit more appropriate to ask the Pro/E portion of the question, in the Pro/E forum?
