Hi Raymond,
Follow these steps to convert an object into a tool:
1-Open the 3D file in RoboDK (drag & drop to the main screen, or use File->Open)
2-Drag & dropthe object into the robot item (inside the objects tree). The object will be automatically converted into a tool.
(the procedure is similar to RobotStudio)
You can reconvert any tool into an object by placing it back to a reference frame.
You should be able to import STL, STEP and IGES format without problems.
