VTK Import for Solid Edge is a Visualization Toolkit (.vtk) file import add-in for Solid Edge®. This add-in gives Solid Edge the ability to import geometric data from ASCII and Binary VTK files.

VTK Import for Solid Edge reads polygon mesh data stored in VTK files and imports it into Solid Edge. A polygon mesh in a VTK file is comprised of a set of triangular or quad faces. VTK Import for Solid Edge creates trimmed planar surfaces for each triangle/quad and knits them together to create a body. If the polygon mesh is closed (i.e. it does not contain boundary edges) then VTK Import for Solid Edge will create a closed body feature, otherwise an open surface will be created.

VTK Import for Solid Edge is very easy to use. Once installed, it automatically loads itself into Solid Edge and adds a new submenu called "VTK Import for Solid Edge" to the Solid Edge Add Ins menu.

VTK Import for Solid Edge is designed to work with the following versions of Solid Edge:

Our licenses are single computer licenses and are locked to each computer they are installed on. Basically, the license key is specific to the computer's Host ID (the MAC address of the computer), and will not work on another computer. The installer picks up the physical MAC address of the network card connected to the computer which is basically “Ethernet adapter Network Connect Adapter”. So unless you change your network card, the key will always work even if you reinstall your operating system. If your internal network is periodically assigning a different Host ID to your computer, then please find a solution for this with your IT department.
