No control over model creation or export from source tool

This case is where the E3D Design user does not have control over the creation and export of the mechanical CAD model, for example where the original project data and design tool is no longer available, and only an export data set exists in a format that can be imported by E3D Design.

Recommendations

• No specific recommendations, other than trying to achieve control over how models are created or exported from the source tools

• Model Simplification will typically not work for big plant models due to scalability issues.
