Pro-E to Inventor Translation settings?
Pro-E to Inventor Translation settings?
(OP)
Hello,
We have had some trouble importing our engine suppliers Step files from Pro-E into Autodesk Inventor. Does anyone have any recommendations for setting that would make for a better translation? They are axporting the assemblies as a single solid body, a few seem to work, but others are incomplete or have corrupted surfaces that Inventor won't import.
Thanks
Jason

I am not knowledgable with inventor. Will it accept iges files? When I export or import to the other major 3-d systems I ussually use iges. My other sugestion is to switch to Pro-E.

This is especially true if the Pro/E part is a large model that has small-faced features.

If none of the above works, export each separate part instead of the whole assembly.
The parameter you may want to try to change it is called "accuracy" if I remember exactly.
