TransMagic is a software application available for a fee, designed to assist in converting computer-aided design files between various native file formats. During the translation process, TransMagic utilizes a technique known as “geometry mapping” to precisely transfer data from one CAD kernel to another. To guarantee smooth and flawless conversions, TransMagic tackles potential problems like “stitching errors” by employing a range of techniques. These techniques involve rectifying surfaces that may slightly overlap or be misaligned, eliminating duplicate control points, and removing redundant vertices.
