KOMPAS-3D Model Recognition Add-On Simplifies Models Exchange Between Different CAD Solutions

ASCON announced the availability of new add-on for its 3D Parametric Solid Modelling solution KOMPAS-3D. 3D-Model Recognition System is intended for recognition of part or assembly elements, being imported to KOMPAS-3D from another CAD solutions. 3D-Model Recognition System extends opportunities of information exchange between organizations using different CAD systems, including recovering its 3D-models with comprehensive Design Tree and considerable saves time for model recognition. This add-on allows full-scale use of part or assembly documents in KOMPAS-3D environment, including its editing.

ASCON has always paid much attention to import/export functions in KOMPAS-3D solution and supported most common CAD formats had inside the basic version for free (including DXF, DWG, IGES, SAT, XT and others).

The system works with imported models of any format supporting by KOMPAS-3D: ACIS (*.sat), IGES (*.igs), Parasolid (*.x_t, *.x_b), STEP AP203 (*.stp, *.step). Design Tree is created as a result or recognition. It allows both editing definition of constituent elements to modify their parameters and editing sketches to change the geometry of elements, based on sketches.
