Conditions to import from Fibersim

The import of layups directly from a part containing Fibersim data works only when the following conditions are met:

• Supported Fibersim version must be installed.

• The FIBERSIM_HOME environment variable pointing to the supported Fibersim installation folder must be set.

• The Use Fibersim API Import customer default is selected.

• The part containing Fibersim data is loaded. The part file must contain the Laminate Composites ply export object. This object defines the laminates and the components to be exported. You define it in Fibersim using File→Export→Analysis – Ply→NX Laminate Composites.

Tip:

To find a customer default, choose File tab→Utilities→Customer Defaults, and click Find Default .
