So, This is a new one! Happy New School Year from EdgeCAM! It seems many schools are having problems where EdgeCAM Version 2011.10.1 or newer will not load an Inventor 2011 file in some cases. In what cases? Who knows. But if you come across this issue please thank Jamie Cuyler from Baldwinsville NY for coming up with the following workaround.
Please remember too: an SAT file is not PARAMETRIC. If you make changes to the Inventor file, you will have to go through the EdgeCAM process again I believe.
