Parasolid - STEP AP203 CADverter Translation Service
CADverter is a fully compliant STEPAP203 processor for Parasolid. It enables the user to convert all forms of mechanical design geometry, as well as assembly and attribute information, from Parasolid to STEP and from STEP files into Parasolid. In addition it supports Configuration Management (CM) data, CM data defines and controls the configuration of a products definition. 
The STEP AP203 processor for Parasolid is available as a bi-directional product.
It can be used Interactively or in a batch mode, from a standard G.U.I Interface.
If you wish to visualise and interrogate the Parasolid or STEP AP203 files this can be done by using the integrated CADviewer product, which is included with CADverter.
CADverter reads and writes Parasolid and STEP AP203 data independent of the native CAD System and converts all geometry. If assembly data (product structure) is in the file, the assembly structure will be mapped as well as colour information.
The user can filter data to optimise the process. In addition CADverter will work with other Theorem products including CADhealer and Data Exchange Navigator (DXN).
MAIN FEATURES
- Converts all types of geometry, wire frame, surfaces, trimmed surfaces (faces) and solid models.
- Converts assembly structure between the systems.
- Converts attribute data including colour information. (Shape/Appearance extension)
- Reads and Writes STEP AP203 files.
- Reads and Writes Parasolid files independently of Parasolid.
- The conversion process can be run Interactively or in Batch mode.
- CADviewer enables you to view the Parasolid and STEP AP203 files before and after conversion.
- Data can be filtered by entity type.
- Geometry can be filtered and selectively processed.
BENEFITS
- The integrated CADviewer enables you to verify visually, and verify by measuring the data pre and post conversion, eliminating time converting unwanted data, or sending out incorrect data.
- The CADviewer and filtering options allow you to selectively process the data, enabling you to optimise conversions and save time.
- The ability to read and write STEP AP203 and Parasolid data independently, eliminates the need to tie up an expensive CAD licence, saving money.
- By converting all forms of geometry no data is lost, eliminating the time required to re-create missing data.
- With over 15 years industrial use Theorem's STEP CADverters robustness and quality is well proven, reducing your business risk.
- As active members of PDES Inc. and Pro STEP, two of the main bodies developing the STEP standard, Theorem are well placed to keep ahead of STEP developments reducing your business risk.
