Input to ImPLANT-STL

The input to ImPLANT-STL consists of STL files generated from/by non-AVEVA Mechanical CAD systems. Some non-AVEVA Mechanical CAD systems have an inbuilt facility for generating STL files, others do not, and the generation of STL files from these systems involves the use of a separate translator program, such as CADfix® from ITI TranscenData (http://www.transcendata.com).

The STL files will normally have the extension .stl and can be either ASCII or binary in format. ImPLANT-STL reads both ASCII and binary STL files.

The ImPLANT-STL program works in read-only mode and the original STL files will not be changed in any way.
