Hello everybody,
Can we import CATIA parts or assembly files directly in SolidWorks?
Do we have any translator. I am not able to select the surfaces when i import the catia files saved as .stl files.
How can i do this so that i shall be able to atleast measure the distances?
Yes you can open a Catia file.
For import a STL file, please check what import options you have set.
Pravash,
What extention are Catia files?
I think you are talking about similar to how Pro-E files are directly
opened up in Solidworks. I would tell you that whar ever extention it
is if it is not listed in the open dialog of Solidworks drop down extentions
then the answer is "no". Then at that poin the only other option is what has already been suggested.
We had to purchase Fromatworks from capvidia
Save as a step file in catia and open with solidworks. You will be able to measure ..
