Importing PMI into calypso


Recommended Posts

In trying to get Catia models to load into Calypso, with the PMI information intact so it can be used to populate the characteristics I have found that Catia does not actually export to the .sat (ACIS) file format. Any attempt to export to a .stp will cause the PMI to be left out of the file.

This leads me to believe Zeiss must be using a translator to import catpart files which leaves the PMI intact for use within Calypso. Can anyone confirm this or tell me what I am missing so I can put a plan in place to make this work?

Siemens NX, Solidworks and Catia

The up-to-date-list can be found in the release notes in chapter 6.
The release notes also state that Creo PMI data can only be imported from parts, not from assemblies.
Furthermore it says Creo PMI is only imported from the active view (whatever that means).
That’s right, Siemes NX, Solidworks, Catia and Creo can be read according release notes Calypso 2018.

But the intention is to create automated measurement programs from that Creo 4.0 PMI CAD model. Has anyone done it successfully with one of these other CAD systems?

We can read the Creo PMI model, but the information which Calypso import is useless! For example the GD&T information or tolerances are not transferred. Finally we only have a CAD model without Information.
Yes, it's considered only a part and one view.
