The Export submenu offers file formats of several CAE programs to export the designed geometry. Thus, a smooth further processing of the geometry data is possible.
Generally, there are the following export capabilities:
3D model export |
Point based export |
|
Format |
IGES, STEP, STL |
All the rest |
Content |
all visible parts in the CFturbo 3D viewer |
predefined set of points/splines (independent from the CFturbo 3D viewer) |
Based on |
all components of the project |
selected component of the project only |
Point density |
see Model settings*/ 3D Model of each component |
see Model settings*/ Point Export of each component |
Units |
[mm] |
* Point density and units can be configured in the model settings (Impeller, Stator, Volute).
It is recommended to export solids or solid faces if they are available, because then the individual faces best fit to each other. Particularly, this is the only sensible option, after 'solid trimming' was done during Model finishing.
The quality of the STL export depends on the resolution of surfaces (triangulation resolution). This can be changed via Model display (top).
Please note: The results of surface-based operations, e.g. fillets, cannot be exported to point-based formats.
