SKP Import for Solid Edge reads polygon mesh data stored in SKP files and imports it into Solid Edge. A polygon mesh in a SKP file is comprised of a set of triangular faces. SKP Import for Solid Edge creates trimmed planar surfaces for each triangle/quad and knits them together to create a body. If the polygon mesh is closed (i.e. it does not contain boundary edges) then SKP Import for Solid Edge will create a closed body feature, otherwise an open surface will be created.

SKP Import for Solid Edge is very easy to use. It adds a new ribbon bar to Solid Edge Add Ins tab. Once installed, it automatically loads itself into Solid Edge and adds a new submenu called "SKP Import for Solid Edge" to the Solid Edge Add Ins tab containing these newly added commands.
