IGES

 

The IGES component reads IGES files and translates them to Open CASCADE models. IGES files produced by IGES versions up to and including version 5.3 can be read.

Translation may concern one entity, a group of entities or a whole file.

Before beginning a translation, you can set a range of parameters to manage the translation process.

If you choose, you can also check file consistency before translation.

The IGES component also translates Open CASCADE models to IGES files. IGES files produced by this component conform to IGES version 5.3.

Other kinds of data such as colors and names can be read or written with the help of separate tools IGESCAFControl_Reader and IGESCAFControl_Writer.
