Hello,

I am beginner in C# programming and also with RS SDK.

Could anyone please help me with an example, how to make some function for exporting geometries from RobotStudio?

Is it possible to export more parts at once, or export geometries in .CATPart, .CATProduct format (or .step)?

I will be grateful for any information.

BR,

blinder

Hi,  
You can only export geometries to ACIS (.sat) with the RS SDK. If you write an Add-In you can export more parts at once.  
The Add-In “Export Geometries” on RobotApps take all bodies in a station and places them into one part that will be exported to an ACIS file.

Best regards,  
Anders
