Parasolid (*.xmt_txt, *.xmt_bin) Formats

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

When exporting into the Parasolid format, you need to specify the Parasolid Version.

By default, the Parasolid version number is set to the one that T‑FLEX CAD system is running (the maximum number).

Data organization. Specifies export type: Assembly or Set of Bodies.

Assembly. The model is exported with assembly hierarchy, if it exists.

Set of Bodies. The model is exported without assembly hierarchy.

In the Entity Types to Export group, you can specify which objects will be exported:

Solids;

Sheets;

Wires.

Color. Allows to select one of the following color sources: Material or Shading. In the first case the scattering color of material (is specified in the material parameters in T-FLEX CAD) is exported. Otherwise, shading is exported.

Simplify geometry. The option, if possible, removes the redundant topology of the exported model bodies. As a result the size of the output file is reduced. The option does not change the quality of the model.

For example, it can be "extra" ribs, breaking a cylindrical surface into segments. With this option, the export time and memory consumption are increased.

Export welds. Manages export of welded seams.

Export 3D path. Manages export of 3D paths, routes.

Export profiles. Manages export of profiles.

Copy geometry of arrays. If the flag is set, copies of all of the elements of the array will be created. File size in this case increases.
