What 3D data formats can you accept?

When it comes to the world of 3D data formats there is a bewildering array of file formats to choose from, and we are able to work with the vast majority of them.  There are however two groups the various flavours fall into, 3D CAD (Computer Aided Design) data formats, and 3D polygon data formats for animation.  These two groups are distinctly different from each other and a significant amount of know-how is required to work with them together.

Typically we receive 3D CAD data from our clients which we are able to read and modify if necessary.  We are then able to convert these files into the ideal polygon mesh form for use in 3D animation.  The industry standard 3D CAD data formats we work with most are as follows:

• ACIS
• STEP
• Parasolid
• IGES
