Relief > Import > Import 3D Model

Use this menu option to import triangle models saved as ArtCAM Assembly (.3da), 3D Studio (.3ds), Drawing Interchange Format (.dxf), and STL (.stl) files into an ArtCAM model:

1. In the Project Tree, select the relief layer onto which you want to import the triangle model.
2. Select Relief > Import > Import 3D Model to display the Import 3D Model dialog.
3. Locate the file.
4. Select the file. Its name is displayed in the File Name box.
5. Click Open. The Paste 3D Model dialog is displayed.

   The current size of the model is shown and the original co-ordinate system used when the triangle model was constructed is kept.

6. Use the Paste 3D Model dialog to set the position, size and origin of the triangle model before pasting it onto the selected relief layer within the ArtCAM model.
