STL files

Does it convert  and approximate edges as true solid faces or do you get a polygonal faceted solid?  In any case I would be careful with conversions because it's either averaging or you're going to get a mess and you might as well cut from the original STL.   Most of the time the STL is from something you're not trying to hold a tight tolerance to  anyway

I have never used the NX application it so I can't say for certain.

 

According to the guy that created the ugopen dll (his translation):

 

"My DLL is a simple Ugopen ufusr application. I read line-by-line ASCII stl file and for each triangle build bounded surface, just triangle. After each <end solid> tag I sew all triangles. For correct mesh it will be solid body, sometime sheet body. Remove all parameters, and - next body."
