Frequently Asked Questions
Does CAD Exchanger require any CAD system to be installed?
Not at all. CAD Exchanger Batch is a self-contained application without dependencies on any expensive CAD system API. This enables truly cross-platform functioning, such as reading SolidWorks files on macOS.
Can I use CAD Exchanger Batch in Docker containers?
Absolutely! CAD Exchanger Batch can be used without attachment to any particular hardware, through a floating license mechanism. Then it's only necessary to satisfy the basic library dependencies.
It's also possible to use a node-locked license, tied to a specific piece of hardware, which is more suitable to installation on physical servers
Can I split or combine multiple CAD files with CAD Exchanger Batch?
It is possible to combine a few models into a single one by running multiple imports and a single export within one command like this:
`./ExchangerConv -i input1.step -i input2.iges -e output.jt`
Splitting models into parts and subassemblies is not possible, unfortunately. Consider using CAD Exchanger SDK for this purpose.
