Hello,

I'm trying to perform a static-structural simulation from a model exported from 3-Matic (.cdb file extension), however altough the model's dimensions might be 80mm, workbench interprets it as 80m (1000 scale factor).

I have tried different import/export methods but can't seem to figure out how to change the units of the system (scale down everything by a factor of 1000) or just import it with the real units (mm).

Best regards,

Carlos.

Please check and adjust the scale factor value in details of geometry:

I don't seem to find the scale input field

Oh, did you set the correct units while importing the cdb via the external model at the following two places:
