STL import
STL import
(OP)
I routinely have STL files that I can not import into SW because there are too many facets to create a solid. Are there any settings that I should change or 3rd party softwares such as an STL to IGS translator that are proven to be robust? Thank you.

RE: STL import
I would request a neutral file format like STEP or IGES
RE: STL import
I am aware of the limitations of STL's but I am also exploiting the simple format. I am performing postprocessing on the STL in Matlab to manipulate the geometry. Yes a software that could smooth over the facets with nurbs surfaces would fit my bill. Ideally there would be a tolerance for accuracy of the fit. Thank you for your help.
