FEMAP
Drawing > Plugins > Analysis with FEMAP
Drawings and parts can be exported from HiCAD to FEMAP.
Open the Drawing tab and select Plugins > Analysis with FEMAP. Choose one of the following options:
- Active part (only the active part including all sub-parts will be exported to FEMAP)
- Selected parts (only a defined part list will be exported)
- Entire drawing
FEMAP will be launched automatically. Depending the previous selection, the active part, a defined part list , or the entire HiCAD drawing will then be imported and opened in FEMAP.
Please note:
Extended settings of the FEMAP interface can be defined via the Configuration Editor (ISDConfigEditor.exe).
In the Configuration Editor, select HiCAD > Active configuration > Interfaces > FEMAP .
Here you can change the Exchange format (for STL, CATIA VS, ACIS, Parasolid, IGES, or ProE; Default ist STEP), set the Path to FEMAP (femap.exe),, and the FEMAP Script (femap.js).
A prerequisite for this is that FEMAP (Finite Element Modeling and Postprocessing) software has been installed on the same system as HiCAD.
