Hi,
I am trying to convert Alias models which are surfaces- into Solidworks parts (solids). I was able to export the models as .obj's from the Solidworks Visualizer and save as a part files. But when I go to edit the surfaces- no options are available to edit with.
I attached an example-
Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
The parts are all 1 shell 0 boundaries.
..in Alias, you should have a option to save or export as IGES or STEP?
..this is what imports, minus the screw (too data intensive.. so, scaled screenshot, scaled and rotated)... btw, have no idea what the scale is?
Hi Paul,
Thanks for the reply -
That big part with the screw should not be in there.
So yes- I was able to export what I needed as STEP and then import into Solidworks.
The issue I have now is that the model is broken into a million small triangles. What would be the best way to handle this new issue? Knitting does not seem to be working.
Alexander,.. well...use what I have, it's one body (surface) but not a bunch of facets.. (attached parasolid)
