How to convert Unigraphics NX (UG NX) to HOOPS HSF?


PolyTrans|CAD+DCC performs mathematically precise CAD, DCC/Animation, GIS and BIM 3D file conversions into all key downstream 3D packages and file formats. Okino software is used and trusted throughout the world by many tens of thousands of 3D professionals in mission & production critical environments, backed by respectable personal support directly from our core development team.

     

Unigraphics NX

Unigraphics NX, or just "NX" is a BREP solids modelling software package with roots that go back to the early 1980s. In 2002 the prior Unigraphics and I-DEAS software packages were merged to create the next generation of solids modelling software called just "NX".

In terms of Okino sales, UG NX comes in within the top 3 of most requested MCAD solids modelling file conversions, along with SolidWorks and ProEngineer/Creo, even if they all focus on slightly different markets.

In simple terms, the best and most reliable way to transfer data from UG NX to Okino software is with the STEP AP214 file format. Other methods include JT files and Parasolid files.

     

HOOPS HSF

The HOOPS Stream File (HSF) file format allows highly compressed files containing 3D data and bitmap images to be streamed over Internet connections of any bandwidth. Okino knows of the HSF file format very well as we have been involved with its evolution since the year 2000.

The legacy HSF file format was created by Ithaca Software in the mid 1980's as an efficient, light weight, compressed 3D visualization format. Thereafter it was adapted and adopted by Tech Soft 3D in the early 2000s for use in other rebranded file formats such as EASM (for SolidWorks), ICS (for IronCAD) and DWF-3D (for Autodesk).
