STP CONVERSION FROM CATIA TO NX (FACE ERRPR) - NX8

There's something curious: If you try to delete (synchronous modeling – delete face) the area where the faces are missing, the face would appear!!!!!!

Do a File -> Export -> Heal Geometry. That will fix the problem.

Hi PhoeNX,
I tried that but it doesn't work.........

PhoeNX,
My bad...it works!......
Thanks a lot!

extract the faces of the whole body as single face, and you see were nx has problems with catia geometry - pls contact gtac

RE: STP CONVERSION FROM CATIA TO NX (FACE ERRPR) - NX8

If you have a look at the original model you supplied and run Analysis - Examine Geometry on it, you will find NX reports both Self intersections and consistency problems.
One of the faces is a "Non manifold" condition which NX/ Parasolid don't like but which the Heal geometry cures.

Toost, you're suggesting me to use the File→ Export→ Heal Geometry, right?

MZ7DYJ

RE: STP CONVERSION FROM CATIA TO NX (FACE ERRPR) - NX8

Yes, the file- export - heal geometry , - that you already have used smile
what i am saying is that one face of the imported body is "corrupt", selfintersecting. Probably due to that Catia and Parasolids handles "special cases" differently.

OK, I got it.
Thanks a gain!
