I am trying to export  reduced model from simlab to Kissoft setting bulk data to:

CMSMETH, 99999999, GUYAN

PARAM, KISSSOFT, YES

It does not create a .kss file, the only way I could create a stiffness matrix to be exported is using 

PARAM, EXTOUT, DMIGPCH 

In my setup I have an assembly to reduce and 6 nodes I use as ASET.

I tried to use Excite model reduction but it seems that it does not support export to kisssoft.

    Hello Federico Bosi,

    Currently, SimLab support model reduction only for Excite, SimPack, Motionsolve, Adams.

    If kissoft support any of the above formats, please use this.

    Thanks & Regards,
