Import big assemblies from Soid Edge directly or by parasolid

[Petre]

I need ro translate data from Solid Edge .They are big assemblies with thoudsans of parts. It works very well to open directly original sub-assemblies.
I'm not able to open the bigs one : sub-assemblies second level and the general assembly. I tried with parsolid but it is to big (103 MB) and computer crash after try to rebuild hundreds of assemblies (finally empty). Now I have almost all sub-ansemblies and parts but not general and second level ones.
I need a tip how to deal with this kind of problem.

With UG, I've had better results importing parasolid than direct. Haven't tried SE.

Honesty may be the best policy, but insanity is a better defense.

Are you using a x32 or x64 bit operationg system?

I suspect you are running out of system resources (memory) if you are crashing out of SolidWorks on a x32 bit system.

Hi Anna,
I think your right. I have this message when I try open parasolid file. I use 32bit.
What it will be the approach to this problem?

Get a x64 bit OS system and more system memory. Or have someone else with an x64 bit system open the files for you.
