Hello
I explain my problem I am on a project that is quite heavy and I would like to be able to send a 3D to my client so that he can see it.
We've already tried in step, it's still heavy and they can't open it.
I specify that they do not have 3d software
Kind regards
Hello @mickael.sarlgascoin
Happy to see you again after this long absence from our forum.
If it's just a matter of seeing and manipulating it from all angles, I suggest you use " eDrawing"" and especially with an HTML file that can be used directly by anyone using Windows.
Here is a mini user manual that our colleague friend @d. Roger has created for us
Otherwise your client can use Edrawing which is free but it's less secure for you because he sees everything, whereas with HTML he will do less things
Kind regards
PS: download link download E drawing - Google Search
Thank you for your answers so quick I try
Edrawing as well, the majority of our big clients have already downloaded it for other business.
Hello
In addition to my colleagues, whom I would like to greet in passing; I send my file via WeTransfer if it is too large to go by email because I also make Edrawings in .exe but they are often too large to go by email.
Personally, I ZIP them in multi-file. It works well too and it allows you to bypass the size rules by email (with sending in several emails)
It's pretty well explained on the following link:

Good evening @coin37coin
Great, I'll save the walkthrough for another occasion!
I think that this does not solve the PB because even if you split an ASM and you reconstitute it at the end, the PB is that the person at the other end must have SW, but the client does not necessarily have SW.
So use what @ac_cobra_427 say because in his remark he indicates that the eDrawing file can be too big even zipped with your method.
Kind regards
Gash @Zozo_mp, I read too fast and I hadn't seen that his client doesn't have a solution for 3D reading... Indeed, it's not great so my solution!
And so, why not make a 3D PDF? It works pretty well if it's just for a visualization and validation of the customer. It seems to me that it even allows for cross-sectional views
Hello @coin37coin
I used the 3D PDF for people who didn't want to download anything (not even eDrawing in reader mode).
But you need a good instruction manual because the use is not so simple but not complicated for people like us.
So that's two solutions for our requester @mickael.sarlgascoin
Kind regards
PS: Happy that you come back more frequently on the forum and that you bring us your knowledge.
Hello;
Here's my method for large assemblies.
And there you have it. So yes, it's tedious to do, but it allows us to reduce large assemblies by around 75% in file size, and to be sure that it will be difficult to "Hack" our "Know-How".
Kind regards.
Hello
For large exports, pay attention to the ' small ' parts such as screws or commercial parts downloaded. Too many details about these pieces will make the export a lot heavier. The prize for heavy stuff for the moment goes to Bene Inox who has fun putting 3D logos on all their models (and it must not be the only one to do this):
Hello, do you try with WeTransfert?
personally, I do all my assembly transfers, SolidWorks, Step etc... by that.
Kind regards.
