Import Geometry for CFD Meshing with Gridgen's Native CAD Readers

Native CAD Readers are able to read CAD data direclty into Gridgen from its native format without using a CAD system license. If you'd like to eliminate neutral files from your analysis process or if you'd like to avoid a potential source of translation error, try adding a Native CAD Reader to your Gridgen.

Try Gridgen's Native CAD Readers for yourself and see how they improve your CAD interoperability.

Gridgen's Native CAD Readers currently support:

CATIA^® Version 4 (version 4.2.4 and earlier)
CATIA^® Version 5 (version R19 and earlier)
Pro/ENGINEER^® Versions 18, 19, 20, 2000, 2000i, 2000i2, 2001, Wildfire, Wildfire 2, Wildfire 3, Wildfire 4
Siemens PLM Software^® (formerly Unigraphics) NX (versions 15 through NX 6)
STEP AP203 and AP214

The Native CAD Readers supplement Gridgen's built-in capability to import geometry via IGES, wireframes, and faceted formats (e.g. STL, VRML).

Note: NCRs are not available for Solaris, Mac, or Linux 64-bit.
