Hi, I have a very huge work to export from rhino to solidworks. I have made a lot of test, and looking for a lot of information on this forum / youtube / google, but after hours of work I haven’t been able to produce the exact result I want.
here is what I want to do :
- export each polysurface in a different part file (10 polysurface = 10 parts)
- export each surface in a different part file ( 10 surface = 10 parts)
- export each line or polyline in a different part file (8 lines + 2 polylines = 10 parts)
- automatically create and name an assembly using rhino file name
- have a list of attributs which follow this export
- recognize block occurencies and concider it as only one part to many time in the assembly
Originaly, I don’t mind the format to use, but I have done many test with IGES and find it quite unusable because of its different reaction if I export only surfaces or a mix of surface + lines…
the best result I get was with DXF :
- I create a block for each object weither if it’s a curve/surface polysurface…
- I name this block
- I gave attributs to this block
with a little bit of set-up I have been able to export each object on a part, and create curves from curves… :
but I have 2 problems :
1/ curves won’t appears as sketches, they always appears as “imported curve” I would really appreciate to directly have them as sketch
2/ as any of us can suppose, attributes of rhino won’t miracly convert into solidworks properties…
I will really appreciate any good configuration, even if it’s in a different format, even if it’s no using blocks, my principal purpose is to be able to match rhino attribute and solidworks properties
