Kurt dx6 machine vise models

Has anyone made a model for the Kurt dx6 vise?

I cant seem to find a supported file for fusion 360 on their website. Perhaps it's there and I'm not seeing it?

I appreciate your help.

Thank you

I downloaded STP or STEP files awhile ago from their site.

Will the STP, or STEP file import directly into fusion 360 without issues or modification?

I appreciate your help

A bit more advice, after import I'd simplify and remove all the junk you don't need. I only wanted the model for CAM setup so removed all screws, engraving etc. The over complex model will just use up resources and slow Fusion down.

I ended up with just this, just 4 parts assembled with 3 joints.

Yes, it will come in as an assembly. You might need to add joints if you want to move the jaws to fit other components. See advice in my post above.
