[Jo...] Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 Hello I'm on GOM 2019 and would like to import multiple coordinate systems from a step file. But only 1 coordinate system is shown. And it seems the first coordinate system in the step file. In the step file multiple coordinate systems are available. I have checked this manual with notepad++. Is it possible to import multiple coordinate system from 1 step file? Thanks in advance.

[Ja...] Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 As far as I know, STEP files have exactly one coordinate system per body. If you import a multi body STEP assembly, you get many coordinate systems. For STEP files containing a single part, you get one coordinate system. STEP files may have some internal transformations to describe the orientation of a single CAD patch, but those are not imported as coordinate systems. If you are sure that this file should contain multiple coordinate systems, please send the file so I can have a look Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/1029-gom-2019-step-import-multiple-coordinate-systems/#findComment-3277 Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Jo...] Posted June 10, 2022 Author Share Posted June 10, 2022 I don't know the exact specification of the step format. When I import multi-body parts (assemblies) each part has a coordinate system. Also when I open the step file in a text editor I can recognize multiple axis systems. See in below screenshot. Do you still need the step file? If so I need to create a dummy file. In Creo 2 coordinate systems have been created and both exported. When I re-import this file in Creo, the coordinate systems are recognized. Of course I can create the second coordinate system in GOM.
