Hi,

is there a way to export the PolyNURBS mesh (e.g. as .stl-file) without the NURBS-Body generated inside?

    Hello Max,

    you can try the following:

     

    • At Inspire right click your shape and select 'Save to Evolve'
    • In Evolve import the shape with 'Retrieve from Inspire'
    • Your model is complete imported, including polynurbs
    • Select 'Edit Polynurb' and pick your shape
    • At the 'Edit PolyNURB' dialog you can deselect the switch 'Nurbify' (at the top)
    • Export the geometry, e.g. STEP
    • Import it into Hypermesh and you can see only the Polys without Nurbs

     

    Hopefully it works,

    Best regards,

    Mario
