Nice, nice ....

First Spatial (usw. Autodesk) must fix thier .STL generator in order to be succesfull in RP. We regulary receive .STL models from Mech.Desktop wich are a real disaster to handle/repair, and often can't be used for running on our Genisys FDM.

Anyone experienced these kind of problems too? We now usually export the ACIS-kernel-format and switch it to Parasolid-kernel-format (Vero Visi-series) If we then make a .STL export, in 9 of 10 time a correct .STL file is made.

Kind regards,
