IGES Format out of Creo #15

Open msc-turb opened 3 years ago

msc-turb commented 3 years ago

When exporting IGES out of Creo, cylindrical objects/features fail in pygiges. For example purposes I have created a cylinder in Creo and exported into iges, then read in pygies. The shell surface is ok, but top and bottom surface are quadrats, not circles.

I am trying to export from Creo objects, that are complex parts and due to this it won't work.

Has anyone in the community come up with a reliable method to get from a CAD part a VTK? I can export from Creo in a lot of formats, would be good to know if someone succeeded here. STL is not an option, because the surfaces are too complex for that.
