import of IGES file
import of IGES file
(OP)
Hello all!!
I'm not able to import an IGES file created in CATIA-V5 into ANSYS-5.4 software. Can anybody tell me what might be the problem and how to rectify it.
One more thing, the extension of storing a part in IGES format is *.igs. But while saving it shows that its defifnitely an IGES file. Does this has anything to do with the problem?
Thanx in Advance

Try importing IGES with defeaturing. The only disadvantage would be that one cannot perform boolean operations.

I use catia V5 as well, the only way I can get a clean transfer is in V5 options set the IGES export :Curve and surface type to "BSpline"
And in Ansys, use the defeature option.
