This document shows the process of importing a STEP file into VTube-STEP

The files used are .stp files.

Steps to import a .stp file into VTube-STEP

STEP 1

Make sure VTube-STEP is cleared.

STEP 2

Under Import/Export, import a STEP File-STP.

STEP 3

Load the desired part into VTube-STEP from the file it is saved in inside file explorer

STEP 4

To collect parametric data, an operator can either autobuild or manually collect features.

For Autobuild.

For Manual Collection

STEP 5

  • Rebuild Parametric Tube from Collected if manual collection was used

STEP 6

The XYZ and LRA grid will now have parametric data in them. This information can be sent to a bender, or brought into VTube-LASER to be measured against.
