Exporting Step File

Hello All,

 

I have just exported a component to a STEP and IGES file which I want to send off and get it machined up. I tested the file with an online viewer to see if it opened and it reported the file was invalid. I tried to import it back into fusion and it worked.

 

Could someone please try to read the enclosed STEP file with a NON Autodesk product and see if it opens

 

Edit:-  Well I tried to upload it and the Forum Software said no - any thoughts?

 

Many Thanks

Right click on the file and select Send to Compressed (zipped) Folder.

Attach the resulting *.zip file here.

I opened the file in SolidWorks and ran Import Diagnostics.

SolidWorks did not report any issues with the geometry.

I guess the next step is to cite the url references of viewers that incorrectly reported issues with the geometry.
