Can I export the optimized model in a solid/geometry file

After so many problem posted on the forum, I finally see the result (plot iso of the last iteration) and it looks like Fig1:
But after I use OSSmooth and export it as a stp file, I tried to re-import it, want to see what the new model looks like. But after I re-mesh the hinge, why it has those curves while the hinge body still remains intact (Fig 2)? I know those curves show the edge of the removed elements in Fig1, but I want a solid model that has a hole, not an intact model with edges of a hole. I've made the hinge component current so that's not the problem.
What should I do to get a solid model that have elements removed from the topology optimization?

Hi,
Can you try with PARASOLID format instead of step?
