We use the npower plugins, converting rhino to Max files which then have a modifier applied in the stack. We’ve tried others but npower seem to work best for us, and we work with a lot of CAD, often 1000’s of files
We’ve used STEP a lot, but am now looking at using JT instead.

Modo and Power Translators in combination. Modo is now available as a rental ($599 per annum) but comes with a fully functional 30 day demo and you can get a demo license from Integrity-ware directly for Power Translators, just be sure you ask for the Modo version of Power Translators. https://www.npowersoftware.com/NewContact.html Really powerful combination that’s especially effective on massive CAD models with lots of components. It’s no magic button but the options aren’t complex, just be thoughtful about the available options. If you get the demo’s more than happy to help you out with the available options. Or if you have an asset your client is happy to pass on to a third party, more than happy to test here as I run both Modo and Power Translators. At least this way you won’t waste any more time learning and testing new tools.
