IGES-IN Entity Mapping

KeyCreator Prime / File / Import / IGES Import / IGES IN Entity Mapping

IGES-IN entity mapping, also known as post-processing, converts IGES files to design files.  The following IGES file information will be transferred to design files.

 

NOTE: The import of Manifold Solid B-Rep Objects (MSB0 – type 186) is now supported.
