4.8.1.3. How can I directly integrate the selected CAD model into the CAD system (PART2cad)? (B2B and OEM portals)

The direct integration (PART2cad) simplifies the download of CAD models. These are loaded quickly and directly into the CAD system. Temporarily saving of parts is not necessary.

Proceed as follows to directly integrate the selected CAD model into your CAD system:

  1. Make sure that the desired part is specified in the table view (and in the variable view if there are value range fields).

  2. Click on Direct integration.

    -> The format selection dialog opens. At the desired one, activate the checkbox. (Only one selection is possible.)

    -> Enter a valid email address in the input field.

  3. Click on Start integration.

    -> The desired component is generated und displayed below ready for download.

  4. Click on Download.

    -> The direct integration is starting.

    [Note] Note

    The application component PART2cad is required at the workstation when using direct integration.

    Install it during the first run. The necessary installer opens automatically.

    The installer itself needs Java.

    -> Once Java is installed the PART2cad installation will start. If Java is not installed, there will be no Java logo displayed. In this case click on the link Click here and install Java.

    -> Warning messages may show up. Allow the installation of the component PART2cad.

    During the first run the direct integration PART2cad will be downloaded.

    Following runs will open the dialog Transferring model to CAD. No user interaction is necessary.

    [Note] Note

    Please note the following selection dialog for the version name of the CAD system.

  5. In the drop-down menu select the CAD version where the model is to be transferred. Confirm the selection with Choose.
