Correct I think that full version is by ansys

"If your work demands exceed the capabilities including the add-on modules, you can consider the full version offered by the DS Mechanical developer- ANSYS SpaceClaim"

Space Claim is another prog! No so the same price! :) 3 200 $ ;)


With the free DSM 5.0 you can donwload 43 000 objects like this one...or very more little :)

---

So in Moi but you better Union them before export else you must import in Moi 30 objects one by one :)
Not really a big deal but depending of what do you want ! :) (count 2 minutes if you import them one by one for this case)

here my object is not one by one so 2 seconds but i have only one object! But it's a solid as you can see! ;)

For a quick route to get part designs like boxes and cable glands maybe designspark is a good place to start.

What format are you exporting to to get these models into moi with?

---

Moi to DSM : Step format

DSM to Moi you must make this little trick! (I make all that following in 5 seconds)

For use the Step and can edit it in DSM 5.0
Load the .Step : draw anything ( a sphere) on your object Step imported: Right Click on the Top Arborescence : UnLock
Kill the Sphere ...your can make anything you want with your imported object!



Save as my_object.rsdoc
Rename it in my_object.zip put it in a folder on the Desktop say bob

Unzip : you have "C:\Users\Pilou\Desktop\bob\SpaceClaim\Geometry\part1bodies.sab"
this .sab must be convertered in .sat (converter given with DSM 5.0)

so with only one line !!! (put a space after the end " )
This only one line is to input in the Command Windows Box called by Pressing keys "Logo Windows" + R

"C:\Program Files\DesignSpark\DesignSpark Mechanical 5.0\SabSatConverter.exe"
-i "C:\Users\Pilou\Desktop\bob\SpaceClaim\Geometry\part1bodies.sab"
-o "C:\Users\Pilou\Desktop\my_object.sat"

Put you line command somewhere for an easy future use :)

Of course Pilou will be remplaced your name if existing!

Import or Open my_object.sat inside Moi :)

If you had not Union your object in DSM you will have part1bodies.sab, part2bodies.sab etc...
so remake the input...for each one! (the big object above was 30 objects for example)

Hi Pilou, could this maybe help you automate the process a bit??

Maybe but as it's an old routine maybe the SPaceClaim converter is not updated...depend if it's call the new or not...
And there maybe something to change for have the last version 5.0...
Try it :)
