|
|
<p>After import the model is (for FreeCAD) just an assembly of faces. You might want to convert the model into a shape FreeCAD can recognize and that could be altered in FreeCAD.
|
|
</p><p>To do this:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul><li> Switch to the Part workbench</li>
|
|
<li> Select the mesh, and go to the Part menu --> Create shape from mesh</li>
|
|
<li> Click OK to the dialog</li>
|
|
<li> Select the newly created shape</li>
|
|
<li> Go to Part --> Convert to solid</li>
|
|
<li> Select the newly created solid</li>
|
|
<li> Go to Part --> Refine shape</li></ul>
|
|
<p>The last step is not necessary, but it will clean the solid of most of its residual edges on planar and cylindrical surfaces.
|
|
</p>

<p>Well, your shell seems to have errors, maybe it is not closed (has holes). Since the capabilities of the mesh workbench in FreeCAD are a little limited at the moment, you might want to try examining and repairing of your model with third-party software. After doing that, you may try importing and converting of your model again.
