Hi All,
i'm a newbie in Inventor 2017 and I have to use it to export 3D model in Plant 3D, but i'm in trouble due the size of the 3D model. The supplier sent me the step file of the pump (see attached file) and my goal is to simplify the model to be usable in plant 3D (200-300 kb instead of 6 MB). I didn't found a way, for example, to export only the external surface (i'm not interested to particular i need only the "Shape"). I have also tried with define envelopes under simplify but i lost the "information" of the flange that i need to use in plant 3d.
Anyone can suggest me the best way to simplify a 3D Model as a pump for example?
Thanks
