Export deflected model in Ansys
Export deflected model in Ansys
(OP)
Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to export the deflected model from Ansys so I can fit it back into my CAD assembly to check clearances etc?
Thanks

RE: Export deflected model in Ansys
I don't think ANSYS generates a deflected solid model, just a deflected mesh. You can export your deflected mesh and attempt to generate a solid model using the ANSYS FE Modeller tool. See the following link for more info:

I believe there are also APDL scripts hosted on the xansys archives for generating stl geometries from deflected meshes.
Good luck,
Dave
