STEP Import

The STEP Import tool allows for STEP files to be loaded into the workcell World tree. If you are currently scoped to a Component, the imported items will also be added to the component.

When imported, the tool will convert each assembly and part into joint/link pairs with the naming convention <part>_joint and <part>_link, mirroring the STEP file hierarchy. Each body will be converted into a visual mesh body body.

Settings

The STEP Import tool allows you to add and remove multiple STEP files. You can select the Remove Small Parts option to remove parts smaller than the minimum size specified under this option. This can be useful for removing features such as bolts from very detailed STEP models.
