Altium imports

Bryan Sautter Oct 10, 2013 3:03 PM

Our company started using Altium for PCB models. The exported step files are extemely large files and make my Soldworks assembly too large when importing the step file. Does anybody know how make the step files smaller?

Bryan,

We limit the file size and the time to open and regenerate the files by normally only importing the components, board outline and mechanical mounting holes, not the pads, traces and through-holes.
