CNC, BIM & Tekla PowerFab Outputs
- KSS/KISS
- DSTV: NC, NC1
- DXF
- IFC
KSS, NC1, DSTV, DXF, and IFC files prepared from coordinated steel models.
We prepare CNC and BIM outputs that help connect detailing data with fabrication, plate processing, Tekla PowerFab, and coordination workflows. Files are generated directly from the coordinated steel model and checked against the drawing package, so your CNC and plasma equipment receives accurate data for producing the parts required for the project.
Built to Automate Your Fabrication Process
CNC and BIM files create problems when they do not match the latest drawings, are exported from outdated models, or require manual checking before use. In those cases, files that were supposed to save time end up slowing fabrication or creating errors in production.
We reduce that risk by keeping CNC files, model information, drawings, and Tekla PowerFab data connected to the same coordinated steel model.
Machine Processing
NC files transfer cutting, drilling, coping, and marking data directly to CNC equipment.
Plate Production
DXF files provide accurate profiles for plasma, laser, and other plate-cutting systems.
Production Efficiency
Machine-ready data reduces manual programming and speeds up the shop workflow.
Part Identification
Piece marks and production data help match fabricated parts with drawings and assemblies.
What You Receive
Depending on your needs, the package can include:
- NC1 files
- DSTV files
- DXF files for plates
- KSS files
- Roborail exports
- IFC steel model
- BIM steel detailing outputs
- Tekla PowerFab eXchange package
These files are typically prepared as related outputs to the shop drawing package, not as disconnected exports.
Built Around Your Shop Workflow
Our CNC, BIM, and Tekla PowerFab outputs are generated from the same coordinated model used for drawings. This helps reduce manual checking, repeated data entry, and inconsistencies between detailing and fabrication data.
- Alignment with the related shop drawings
- Updates when revisions affect fabrication data
- Clear file naming and folder organization
- Export settings matched to your shop requirements
- Outputs prepared for your equipment and software
- PowerFab-ready data when required
Sample Output Files
Sample files show how the CNC and BIM outputs are structured and what information is included. Examples can include NC1 files, DSTV files, DXF drawings, DXF plate files, and IFC steel model exports.

Why Clients Use Our CNC & BIM Outputs
CNC and BIM outputs only work when they stay connected to the model and drawings they come from. If not, they create extra checking work, slow down fabrication, or lead to errors at the machine level.
Our process helps reduce that risk through coordinated modeling, drawing alignment, and file checks before release.
Model-Based Export
Outputs are generated from the steel model, not rebuilt manually.
Drawing Alignment
Files are checked against the related shop drawing package.
Clear File Structure
Outputs are organized for easier review and handoff.
Client-Specific Outputs
Files are tailored to your your equipment and shop standards.
