class ansys.meshing.prime.ImportCadParams(model=None, append=None, ansys_release=None, cad_reader_route=None, part_creation_type=None, geometry_transfer=None, length_unit=None, refacet=None, cad_refaceting_params=None, stitch_tolerance=None, cad_update_parameters=None, validate_shared_topology=None, json_data=None, **kwargs)

Parameters to control CAD import settings.

Parameters:

model: Model

Model to create a ImportCadParams object with default parameters.

append: bool, optional

Append imported CAD into existing model when true.

ansys_release: str, optional

Configures the Ansys release to be used for loading CAD data through non Native route. Supported formats for specifying Ansys release version are ‘25.1’, ‘251’, ‘v251’, ‘25R1’.

cad_reader_route: CadReaderRoute, optional

Specify the available CAD reader routes. The available CAD reader routes are ProgramControlled, Native, WorkBench, SpaceClaim.

part_creation_type: PartCreationType, optional

Create a part per CAD Model, Assembly, Part, Body.

geometry_transfer: bool, optional

Option to enable transfer of geometry data (NURBS).

length_unit: LengthUnit, optional

Specify length unit for import.

refacet: bool, optional

Refine or coarsen the CAD faceting based on refaceting parameters when true.

cad_refaceting_params: CadRefacetingParams, optional

Specify refaceting parameters.

stitch_tolerance: float, optional

Stitch facets based on tolerance. Available only with WorkBench CAD Reader route.

cad_update_parameters: Dict[str, Union[str, int, float, bool]], optional

Specify the CAD parameters for parametric CAD update. Available only with WorkBench CAD Reader route.

validate_shared_topology: bool, optional

Specify whether to validate the shared topology information.

json_data: dict, optional

JSON dictionary to create a ImportCadParams object with provided parameters.
