When transferring 3D models between CAD systems, sometimes the scale of the model may be translated incorrectly. This is caused by the neutral file not supporting units or supporting them in a different way then IronCAD does. Use the IronCAD Part Properties Sizebox to scale the imported model back to the correct size.
