How to Upload Parts
Upload or import your parts (in STEP format) to Toolpath using the instructions below to begin estimating and analyzing for manufacturability!
Toolpath enables you to upload CAD files via email or directly into the Parts page.
Toolpath currently only accepts CAD files in STEP format. For more information, please see our article on Accepted File Types.
Uploading Parts via Email
When you receive an email from a customer with new STEP formate parts to analyze, save time by forwarding it to uploads@toolpath.com - just like you’d forward a RFQ from a client. Just make sure that you forward from the email used for your Toolpath account.
After forwarding the email, you’ll receive an email confirming your upload, and you can visit app.toolpath.com to see your part analysis and estimates.
Uploading Parts Directly into Toolpath
To upload a part directly into Toolpath:
- Go to the Parts page (app.toolpath.com/parts).
- Drag and drop the STEP file onto the page, or;
- Click on New Parts to open Finder to upload the STEP file.
After uploading your part, Toolpath will automatically run it's estimation and Machinability Report. Please see How to use the Machinability Report for more information.
