Export files in the KeyShot® format (*.bip) from Cimatron.

For a summary of the Data Interface Import/Export formats supported by Cimatron (including their CAD version numbers), see Cimatron's Import/Export Capabilities at a Glance.

Cimatron retains the settings of the data interface (Import/Export) dialog from its last use, including the menu state (expanded or collapsed) and the tab that was opened.

Note: In addition to this ability to export files in the KeyShot format, a KeyShot function is available which automatically exports and opens all currently displayed geometry in the KeyShot application.

What is KeyShot?What is KeyShot?

KeyShot® is real-time 3D rendering and animation. It uses interactive raytracing and global illumination technology developed by Luxion. It is built to break down the complexity of creating photographic images from 3D models.

KeyShot allows you to change materials, interactively create and adjust lighting and cameras. KeyShot reads in every major 3D file format natively.
