Automate i-deas drawing import?
(OP)
Hello, the end of this year we will be updating to nx 8.0.3 and are looking forward to being able to open I-deas files directly into NX. Question is there a way to automate opening i-deas files and adding them to NX? We have a lot of legacy data in i-deas and would love to add them with the power drafting license to our NX data. Mid next year the next step for us it to add teamcenter into the mix. Would it be beneficial to convert these files prior to or after the teamcenter upgrade? Does anyone have any experience with this?

I have seen quite a number of NX parts that had been migrated from I-deas and my view is that the results is quite impressing. ( Siemens has been polishing the migration tools since NX3. )

Are you on maintenances for I-deas the you need to ask Siemens or your Reseller for the CMM tool.
This tool first import the TDM with all relations in to TeamCenter and after that you can do the CAD migration from I-deas to NX inside TeamCenter.
The CMM tool reads the *.mdf files directly
