APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR EXCHANGING CAD DATA

摘要

A CAD file converting device for applying CAD files created in a CAD system for machines to a CAD system for ships maps modeling units that the CAD files created in the CAD system for machines and those applied in the CAD system for ships, and converts parameter values determining feature shapes in the mapped modeling units into parameter values proper to the CAD files of the CAD system for ship design. Accordingly, CAD files of a CAD system for machines can be accurately converted into CAD files of a CAD system for ships.

主权项

1. A CAD date converting apparatus, comprising:
a file receiving unit configured to receive a first-format CAD file; a mapping unit configured to analyze the first-format CAD file and perform mapping of a modeling unit of the first-format CAD file to a modeling unit of a second format to be created; a parameter conversion unit configured to convert parameter values included in the mapped modeling unit to parameter values corresponding to the modeling unit to be created; and a file transmission unit configured to create the second-format CAD file by using the converted parameter values and send the created second-format CAD file to a ship CAD system.
