We use ProEngineer and it has proven to be a robust STL file generator
over the years. It is expensive though (about $20K/seat) and can
involve lots of retraining for users converting from 2D CAD to fully
constrained parametric 3D solids. I have heard rumors that PTC is
releasing a "ProLite" (not the real name) to compete with AutoCAD
under the MS Windows environment. Anybody know if this lower cost
ProEngineer software will generate STL files?
BTW.. Brock, register my vote for "Holoforming", although "RP" is just
fine in the interim.
