hi

 

ive created my parts and trying to print them out on a rapid proto type machine. Ive exported the files to disc as a STL file,

 

when trying to reopen the stl files on inventor prof (2011) the files wont open

should i be able to open them?

 

thanks ryan

It can open them with an Add-in, but not out of the box. The geoemtry created by STL is highly faceted and normally not workable in most programs.
