Rhino Add-in for Inventor on Labs
June 11, 2009, 04:42 PM Garin Gardiner
Today we released a new utility on labs which gives you more flexibility when creating designs with vendor or customer data by allowing you to directly import Rhino files into Autodesk Inventor. This translator reads Rhino files(*.3dm) bringing solids, surfaces, wires, and points into Autodesk Inventor to be directly utilized while modeling. Being able to import directly from Rhino files eliminates the need to convert the Rhino data to make it usable in your projects.
If you receive Rhino models and want to use them in Inventor, head on over to Labs to download the Rhino to Inventor utility.

Wow, what a coincidence! I was just looking into post processing large scan data (from a Faro or Leica phase-shift scanner) by importing the point clouds into Rhino and doing some modeling to extract the specific data I needed. Problem was, I was unsure how succesful I was going to be in bringing the models into Inventor. Now I know!! Man that is cool!!!
