    Formats
   - IGES, DXF, VDA, PARASOLID, ACIS.
   - Commands file (batch).
   - From meshes: NASTRAN, STL, GiD format.

    Problems to solve
   - Tolerances
   - Conversion of entities and hierarchical structure.
   - Gaps and lack of connetions.
   - Need of correction filters and entities collapse

 

    Geometry export
