I don't think ProE by itself is suitable, especially since you need a
copy of ProE even to import it to BRLCAD. I myself would suggest
Wavefront (.obj), ASCII DXF (.dxf), or STL (.stl) file. All are
standard formats & should be in ProE and any other 3D editor.
Instructions for converting from ProE to STL are as follows:
ProE
* File > Export > Model
* STL
* Set chord height to 0. The field will be replaced by minimum
acceptable value.
* Set Angle Control to 1
* OK
ProE Wildfire
* File > Save a Copy > Model
* Change type to STL (*.stl)
* Set Chord Height to 0. The field will be replaced by minimum
acceptable value.
* Set Angle Control to 1
* OK*
*
I'm sure the process would be similar to convert to either of the other
2 formats.
