Could solve it with a CAD Converter. Something was broken in the Data.

Now it is a problem again. Lost the trial of the converter.

Do you have IronCAD installed?  
If so I know that have previously caused issues with CAD imports.  
Otherwise, I recommend you to contact the ABB support.

I don’t have IronCAD. ABB support is contacted, but they still have no solution yet. Seems like a complicated problem.

Youn can try to convert in .STL with 3D-Tool Trial Version

I know, but we don’t want to buy a license of a CAD Converter, when Robotstudio should support CAD Import.
