We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hi Charudatta,

My apologies for the inconvenience but we had a small break due to a bank holliday.

The step file was created with SolidWorks 2020.

This is the header data of the step file:

ISO-10303-21;
HEADER;
FILE_DESCRIPTION (( 'STEP AP203' ),
    '1' );
FILE_NAME ('YB-016-00182-0E.STEP',
    '2024-04-10T12:36:16',
    ( '' ),
    ( '' ),
    'SwSTEP 2.0',
    'SolidWorks 2020',
    '' );
FILE_SCHEMA (( 'CONFIG_CONTROL_DESIGN' ));
ENDSEC;

 

There is no other file type available for the customer.

As mentioned if I load in my other available tools and export a parasolid it will load in Spaceclaim as parasolid.

The customer does not have this possibility and only gets the step file form his customer.

Loading the file form a network drive or local drive does not make a difference.

I can reproduce on my system as well. It might be that the file will load if you leave it there for a long time but this is not desirable.

I have uploaded the file in a transfer to Devendra Badgujar because he is handling another issue with corrupt data for me.

So if you need the file, please ask your colleague for it.

Regards

Dimitri
