Why This Tool Exists

⚠️

The Problem

AEC teams using Revit need to collaborate with engineers using CATIA V5 for advanced analysis, manufacturing, or detailed engineering workflows, but manual file conversion is time-consuming and often results in geometry loss or metadata corruption.

✅

The Solution

Automated plugin converts Revit architectural models directly to CATIA V5 format (.CATPart/.CATProduct), preserving geometry, topology, colors, and metadata while allowing selective element export and adjustable tessellation quality.
