My CMM guy needs an iges file with a certain axis and a couple circles I created for him. But when I created the iges neither of those entities are there. The points that I used to create the axis are within a geometrical set but thats it.
Also, he's using a program called CMM Manager and it's not reading the points I've created. So is there a way to create this iges so he can get an axis and geometry?
 
instead of axis create a line..i don't have any problems with lines and points.
 
Try reading your IGES file back into CATIA to verify what geometry you're sending.
 
Okay, thanks. But what about this CMM Manager program? It's not reading any of these geometrical entities. It shows everything is in one layer. Has anybody worked with this program?
 
It did read the lines and points on the iges jackk. I can live with that if only his program would read it.
 
Thank you very much. I'll send the link to the CMM guy.
