Noz Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Having a few issues lately. Can someone advise how I turn step files (or even iges) into solids. I've having issues working with some models. Could this be from the base design, or wasn't converted to step files? Advice appreciated.

Burna Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Which software package are you trying to open them in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noz Posted December 16, 2016 Author Share Posted December 16, 2016 Inventor Professional 2015. I can use NX to open them and edit them, but really I work with Inventor so need to stick to that format. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digsy Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 STP is a solid file format already so either the file does not contain anysolid bodies or it is not translating correctly, which can happen with cOmplex shapes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noz Posted December 16, 2016 Author Share Posted December 16, 2016 It doesn't contain solid bodies. I've had that error occur as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digsy Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Does it contain a fully closed surface? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
