Malformed Files are detected carefully. Files with less than 50 extra chars at the end are automatically salvaged as if happens often due to translation issues.
Batch Translation is available to automate CATIA2SolidEdge translations. Download the batch translator and follow installation guidelines.
Filters on models, filename cane be define with the REGEX syntax. This very powerfull syntax widely used in the Unix world allow very precise filters. To activate this feature set UseRegEx=true where the patterns are defined. This will apply to both Patterns and ExcludedPatterns
Support for CATIA files coming from mainframe with EBCDIC Strings and non IEEE floats. Quite rare but may happen.
TrackFace supports a list of faces or selections
Wireframe entities are now loaded as Sketch or wireframe entities in SolidEdge
New switches allow to filter in or out Skin, Solids, Volumes, Wireframe, Ditto. When Dittos are filtered out all Solids, Skins and Wireframes referenced by the ditto will not be read either.
Three flags for supporting RSPara
Ready for SolidEdge V17
Ready for SolidEdge V16
Improved scanning for workspace and sets. All parts in the original model are now in the output.
Support for .model files written by CATIA V5 and CATIA V4.2.4
New enhanced licensing system. We improved the system to support software locks, temporary licences and easier registration. The version requires a new unlock code. If you are under maintenance you should request it at support@radialsoft.com.
CATIA2SolidEdge now reads CATIA entities of type SkinD.
Cancellation during the translation of the CATIA file is possible.
Improvement of the progress dialog.
Simplification of the registration with one single dialog.
Improved handling of errors and exceptions.
CATIA part size limitation (~40 Mb) is now removed.
CATIA files with the ".exp" extension can be imported directly using SolidEdge' file open menu.
CATIA2SolidEdge now supports assemblies made of MockUp solids.
CATIA2SolidEdge now reads CATIA MockUp Solids (tessellated solids).
Online help available from inside SolidEdge.
Support for multiples configurations for Options setting corresponding to your various types of CATIA parts.
Various options let you decide what kind of entities are to be translated, in particular, hidden entities, isolated surfaces or MockUp Solids.The CATIA2SolidEdge options settings are improved. Multiple configurations corresponding to each CATIA part type can be defined.
Parts are shared in assemblies when shared in CATIA.
Powered by the RadialSoft OLEDM BREP engine RSGTModel, CATIA2SolidEdge repairs and adjusts CATIA geometry to obtain a useable and well-defined SolidEdge parts (Imported Solids).
Easy and safe installation procedure based on self-extracting file.
Protection scheme based on Ethernet board Mac Address, CAD Software SerialNumber or programmatic dongle.
Does not require a CATIA License.
Reading of Lines, Circles, Planes, Cylinders and Cones without any conversion.The performances of SolidEdge are improved with that kind of models. Also you can ask for the axis and other measures on the part.
Support for CATIA parts defined in inches or millimeters. You also can define your own custom scale factor.
Assemblies are translated as SolidEdge assemblies and the components are located as defined in CATIA even if the transformation used in CATIA is a mirror.
During the reading of assemblies, the current component is closed before starting the conversion of the next component so that only the top-level assembly is open at the end of the conversion. This reduces memory usage and increase reliability.
Options of CATIA2SolidEdge are available through the menu and the toolbar. Appearance of the toolbar can be customized to rearrange the icons.
Use the CATIA color of the part if defined.
Support for CATIA parts defined with code page type IBM370 (EBCDIC).
CATIA name can optionally be used for assembly components and parts.
Only the top-level assembly is open at the end of the conversion.
