    Hi,

    Once the bearing length optimization is complete, the software generates the optimized bearing lines IGES file in the run folder. You can use those files.

    Hi Chaitanya,

    I see that many IGES files but I only bearing group is optimized can import (some bearing group is fixed cannot import), right? we can use this optimized bearing for metal extrusion analysis?
