  The CAE Import component provides a DataSource for the UnstructGrid Component that can read files from commercial MCAE and CFD simulation software systems.

  With a few lines of code you can import your model from most commercial MCAE and CFD file formats.

  Please note that this component requires a separate feature in the license key and has additional cost of use.
