MULTICAx Unigraphics UD in a Nutshell

 

Direct mode:

The MULTICAx Unigraphics (UD) Plug-in allows you to import:

  • Unigraphics native data (*.prt) (part and assembly models). This import converts  Unigraphics part geometry into the CATIA Graphical Representation (CGR) or CATPart formats, which renders it readable by V5.  The MULTICAx (UD) Plug-in imports Unigraphics assembly files into a V5 product structure document. You can perform this import interactively or from the command line.
  • Parasolid

The assembly import converts the Unigraphics assembly hierarchy into product structure, along with the proper positions. No attributes of the assembly other than hierarchy, positions, and colors of the geometry are addressed in assembly import.
