CAD Programming
CAD Programming in 6 easy steps
1. Load the Model
2. Change the Orientation of the Model
3. Create the Base Alignment
4. Create Clearance Planes
5. Create Characteristics & Features
6. Run the Program
Loading a Model
Create a new program and select
CAD>CAD File>Load
o Acis (*.sat, *.sab) is the native format for
Calypso
o 1 neutral format available
STEP
