Yes , why not.
If you can solid works in parasolid text (.x_t). Then you can import geometry with "Import Geometry" .. It should work now. |

Better still, get the SolidWorks interface for Workbench.

hi, read this http://www.ansys.com/Products/icemcf...solidworks.htm
It doesnt come as a default, need to pay for it. Its pretty useful while performing optimization studies wherein your CAD geometry requires frequent updates. The same interface can be used to import *.SLDPRT files directly into CFXMesh, design Modeller etc. |

Hi MAB,
The interface works directly with a live SolidWorks session, so you would need SW installed and licensed to import the file. If you don't have it, ask your friend to export the file to Parasolids. -CycLone |

Yes! Choose this type of file to import at Workbench: .SLDPRT
