Good morning.
is it possible with catia to export a file to any format by assigning it a source from me created? I know that with creo and ug it is possible, it seems incredible that with catia you can not do!
Thank you.
 
incredible but true.. You can't.
the alternative is to create 3 lines (x y z) in the geometric group, so that those who receive the step or igs know where your origin is

but did you try to activate the axle system in the catpart and then export it?

no, it doesn't work always remains the global axis system.
The alternative to passing the axle system is how I wrote it.
lines that simulate axes x y z
is a problem that has always existed1642185670106.pngif you expose the step by displaying the axes and then read the step with catia.. Then see the axle system.
but if you open the step with another cad.. You see nothing
 
but what step format did you use for export? in the options there are two three different formats.

try a bit, but maybe you need a dedicated license di
 
I usually use 214.iso because it also exports colors, but I tried them all and nothing changes.
It may be that it's the license, but when I did the classes years ago. They already mentioned this and did not speak to me about licenses but a characteristic of catia.
the idea of the lines that simulate the x y z axes had suggested it to the course.
with the iges-step export there is no option that suggests you set the axes origin.
to say it all.. It is not that it is so fundamental to export the step according to the desired origin.
Perhaps it is made of purpose to bind everything to global origin, if it is a problem of cam, the origin can define who runs the tool paths.

if I do not erro the step 242 format was introduced a couple of years ago in catia v5. I believe r24 or r26.
but you should try with the license
 
in v5, i usually when i have this need i create a target coordinate system and then i make the transformation that is in the transformation bar, has the icon with two syscos almost overlapped. select the body of interest as an object of work, activate the command, select the target sysco and then the absolute one. he moves your body to the desired position and exposes. after you delete the feature and the body returns to its place.
 
It's okay, you do a translation, but it's not the same thing you asked. @french .
if you have more body you have to do the translation on each one
 
Clearly if you have more body, it depends on the number, you have to do it on each one... If you have a set to export with another terna you have to do some magheggi with axiemi created ad hoc. I, in this case, create a new set, insert a new part (that becomes so my target sysco) then I assemble the catproduct or the catpart (with so many body) binding the coordinate systems and then after a few passages I take from there. Clearly that with proe this is one of the few steps you can do more efficiently than catia. In fact, I remember that when I made the caty course it was one of the first questions I asked the great @ferrent
 
In fact, it is very simple to define the origin of export.
I have never understood why of this philosophy cries.
However, I do not understand why it is necessary to export with a different origin than what has been defined. if it were for a speech cam.. I think all cams can customize the cnc origin where they want.
Maybe I miss the need. You're the one @micknat Why do you need to move it?

Mah... I may have to move it for various reasons. for example, working on automotive, design on the wheel, then maybe for convenience of the port supplier with a coordinate system centered on the model. Sometimes I reverse engineering and the terna of the sl is not put so much "good" and then, at the end of the process I refocus the model... but there can be many reasons
 
I understand (y)
I abandoned this procedure because saving it in step , I happened to set the origin in a place other than the previous export and then the customer in loading the new step if it is found moved.
to avoid this error.. I always carry out with global origin, so the customer always finds it in the same position. then, if the customer doesn't like my origin.. He creates one.. but in reloading the new step if you will always find it in the correct position.
 
to me once something like this happened and it seems to me that I had copied my entire project into a new product or component, and then with the manipulator I moved the file, or alternatively you create a new part with the desired axis system (always in the axis you created) and then a new part with the original axis system of the product, then give the coincidence between the two axis systems and you should be to
I often have to create an axis system in the single of the file, because the customer sends me the product with the wheel of the car, and before doing the industrialization I create a more "human" axle. ..but it shocks me that when you have to measure something, you must always set the created axle system if he always uses the original part system:(
 
If I don't remember badly... the origin, in the automotive sector, is on the right front wheel.
If there's any expert, correct me.
 
at the center of the front wheel for x and z, and y in half-carry, but not for everyone, e.g. the saab that originally planned aircraft used the aviation method with zero on the outside big way where the look of the pilot facing down met the ground...
is obviously a convention, as in reality the shell is placed according to the distribution of the loads on the shock absorbers, so in the case of presentation of a static prototype the values "on the road" of the front z and the rear z to be adjusted, so that the designer can see it pressapoco as on the road
