CAD independent
Simcenter Femap is the natural choice for a complete CAD-independent analysis environment. Simcenter Femap offers seamless geometry access with major CAD systems such as NX™ software, Solid Edge® software, PTC creo, CATIA, AutoCAD and SolidWorks. Along with direct import of geometry from these CAD Systems, Femap can also import Parasolid, STEP, IGES, and ACIS geometry files.
Based on the industry-standard Parasolid geometry engine, Simcenter Femap offers extensive geometry creation and modification tools including standard wireframe curves, surface and solid modeling. Powerful shelling, blending, Boolean operations, surface imprinting and lofting combine to make Simcenter Femap extremely effective at creating or modifying geometry for analysis.
