I have brought this idea though already once, unfortunately, it is voted not enough, although it so many users need. Finally, Advance Steel must bring an export to Step. Just for the cuts reaping of complicated cuts in pipes. All manufacturers of these 3D lasers robots need the Step format.
is the "Export CIS/2" not what you are looking for. It exports models to .stp files (which I believe are the same as .step). I may be wrong here, but just a thought.
No, the CIS/2 exports is a special export between CAD systems or to ERP systems. Though the CIS/2 exports also has the file ending *.stp. However, this is not the same as Step. You can test it yourself. You can export a CIS/2 and try, this file about the AutoCAD import as a Step import. This will not work.
Until Autodesk add such functionality to Advance Steel / AutoCAD the Graitec Powerpack for Advance Steel includes a function to export to ACIS, DWG (3D Solids), STEP or IGES files. This can do your whole model or selected parts to individual files named after the part numbers.
I have generated this entry because I believe that the Step format should be a standard export format in Advance Steel. The fact that we have inserted the format in the Graitec Powerpack with, is aware to me completely and it is nice that we are able to do this and I hope that many users our Powerpack shop just, therefore. Since the Graitec Powerpack for Autodesk Advance Steel still holds ready many other surprises.
I have need of exporting to step format also. These are required by fabricators for their laser cutters. I have tried the method of exploding the advance steel model and then using AutoCAD Mechanical to export the file to step format, but this doesn't export the mark numbers of the beams, nor does it do it individually as required by the fabricators. This way has many potential errors doing it manually....especially when there are 100's of beams. Can we please have this automated in advance steel?
Not everyone has a need for PowerPack. But they do for Stepexport. It should be a standard in AdvanceSteel. It is uneconomical if you have to buy an extra PowerPack for it.
