Export Workpieces

Assemblies and parts added to a station can be exported from the workspace widget. Any assembly/part can be exported by selecting the assembly in the workspace widget, then right-clicking and selecting one of two available export options in the context menu:

  • Export as STL…

  • export-step Export STEP…

All children of the selected assembly will be included in the exported file.

If STL is selected, all sub-assemblies and their parts will be merged into a single model before being exported to the selected destination.

If STEP is selected, the exported STEP model will retain the structure of the model. All sub-assemblies and parts will be kept as individual components and maintain their position in the model tree.
