VDA-FS Reader

The VDA-FS Reader provides full access to the Assembly, B-rep and View & PMI Data stored within a particular VDA-FS file. A file does not need to have a particular extension to be read correctly by HOOPS Exchange however the file extensions of VDA-FS files that you can expect to be loaded by HOOPS Exchange are:

• .VDA

Assembly

Datum planes and construction geometry are also supported and accessed through the assembly tree. Incremental load is not supported by our VDA-FS reader.

B-Rep

The VDA-FS B-rep is pretty simple and only supports geometry in NURBS form. The only types of surface and curve geometry that can be found in a VDA-FS B-rep is:

• B-spline curve

• B-spline surface

• Circular curve

Visualization

This visualization data for this format is generated by the HOOPS Exchange tessellation engine.

Views

This concept is not supported by VDA-FS.

PMI

This concept is not supported by VDA-FS.
