Import / Export Operations

Import/Export operations are available for the following tasks:

  • Transferring data locally within Cimatron.

    • Transferring files between the various Cimatron working environments (for example, from the Part environment to the Drafting or NC environment).

    • Transferring specific geometric entities between Cimatron files.

  • Transferring files between an external file format (such as ACIS, IGES, etc.) and Cimatron. These types of operations require data to be exchanged digitally between the source and target systems. Cimatron performs accurate and rapid data translations via its Data Interface module that provides numerous options to perform this task.
