Hi All
I have just drawn a model car using Solidworks and am currently trying to import the geometry into Ansys using the usual plugin, but the attach keeps failing. I have also tried to import it separately as an STL file with the same result.
The car has been modeled mostly using the surface functions in Solidworks, with all faces knitted together and merged to form the final part.

Has anyone had experiences of this before, or found ways to stop Ansys continually rejecting Solidworks' geometry?
