I was wondering if anyone would like to share their experiences of the feature recognition tool in Solidworks 2004. I get a lot of data from a multitude of systems in all sorts of formats (IGES, STEP, Parasolid, Pro/E, ACIS to name but a few). I need a system that will let me bring these models in (a lot of time they are surfaces), turn them into a solid and then do some feature recognition so that I can change things like hole sizes, face drafts and round edge dimensions.
Is SolidWorks 2004 a reliable tool to do this? The guy who demonstrated it to me made it look so easy but he was a bit reluctant to try it on my own data.
Any shared experiences, good or bad, I'd love to hear them.
Thanks .....
