Downloaded File names
The name of the downloaded CAD file may be the name of a different model of the same type as the model selected. If necessary, change the file name after downloading.
CAD data consisting of two or more items is downloaded as a zip-compressed file. Unpack the file after downloading.
Specifications for Graphics Data
Data File names
The "-" symbols in model names are replaced with "_" symbols in file names.
The file names for components in an assembly file are constructed by adding each component's name to the assembly file name.
For example, the file name of a nut used for the E2E-X3D1S is "E2E_X3D1S_NUT". However, for components that can be purchased separately and have their own model number, this model number is used as the file name.
Text
All text data is in a globally recognized format that does not include 2-byte characters.
Configuration and Arrangement of Assembly Components
Data for components that can be opened, closed, operated, or removed is created separately and included in assembly files.
Data for accessories and configuration components that can be purchased separately is created separately and included in assembly files.
Components of pushbutton switches that can be purchased separately, such as indicators, are created separately and included together with the data for the pushbutton switches.
Graphics data for switches shows the state where levers and plungers are in the free position (FP).
Graphics data containing switch levers shows the state where they are free to move in the operating direction (SolidWorks data only).
Graphics data containing covers or doors shows them in the closed state.
Reference Positions
The assembly reference position is used as the origin (x=0, y=0, z=0) in 3D data.
In data for products mounted to mounting holes, the position of the mounting hole is used as the origin.
In data for products inserted in sockets, the center of the side that makes contact with the socket is used as the origin.
Omitted and Simplified Data
In order to reduce the volume of graphics data, some detailed parts have been simplified. In general, parts that do not need to be considered for layout are omitted
Screws and bolts are represented by cylinders with the nominal diameter, without the thread, and are colored pink. Screw heads are also simplified as cylinders.
Small fillets, chamfers, and draft angles are omitted.
Only the number-one connector pins are created, the others are omitted. In some cases, if the assembly position and orientation are clear from the shape of the connector, all pins may be omitted.
Only the operating axis is shown for DIP switches.
Individual details for heat-radiating fins and ventilation holes are omitted. they are represented by plain figures covering the ranges they occupy.
Chamfers and holes at the ends of terminals are omitted.
Rubber boots are represented by plain figures of the maximum possible dimensions.
Labels, printing, markings, and product logos are omitted.
Colors (Not Applicable to STEP Data)
Colors approximating those of the actual products are used. (Information may be lost or changed in formats other than SolidWorks.)
Transparent portions are colored ivory.
Indicators are colored to reflect the status when lit. If the indicator lights with two or more colors, the color corresponding to the higher level of danger is used.
Screw locations are colored pink.
Color information is not contained in STEP data.
Dimensions
Agreement between the dimensions of the figures and the actual dimensions is only guaranteed for dimensions given in diagrams in specification sheets and catalogs.
2D Graphics Data
The 2D graphics data that can be downloaded from the 3D data download screen is simple graphics data.
Download 2D-CAD data by pressing the 2D button in Product List Page.
CAD graphics are based on a scale of 1:1.
