STP file export
STP file export
(OP)
I have to get rid of part number and part body name during export (part body name is the same as part number).
I know several ways how to do that including VB but i would like to edit some file in Programs files directory for that.
I have to be sure that part number will not be shown in STP/IGES file.
Reason for that: Data publication. P/N just can not be shown.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Jenia Ladkov.

Change name prior to STP/IGES export. Name STP/IGES file same as changed name.
Exit CATPart, DO NOT SAVE.

I have found saving as .step files in Solid Edge does not replace these names when reopened as an assembly.
This may be CAD program specific at the translator step.
Hope this helps.
RE: STP file export
Another approach is to do the STEP export from the assembly level, the STEP file will inherit the name of the top level file it was exported from. You can simply make a dummy part, add the file as an assembly component, then export. The STEP file will not show any name info of the component part.
Good luck!
