We would like to know the resolution of 3D STEP Model of PCB Library Expert software?

For example the default molding resolution would be as 10E-6 mm and how we can calculate it?

You need to get a Free Trial License and test it out.

Please see the "Samples" link at the top of this page:
http://www.pcblibraries.com/Products/FPX/3D-STEP.asp

...or look for the yellow "SEE SAMPLE FILES" link at the link above. Both will get you the same sample file with actual 3D STEP output from the Library Expert. The samples cover a variety of different component families.

We have already PCB Library Expert licence and we used it to generate the footprint and mCAD but we can't detect the resolution of mCAD.

Could you please help us to know the resolution of mCAD?

I'm not sure what you mean by mCAD? Is this a specific tool or are you referring to, or a mechanical tool in general? If its the latter, which specific CAD tool are you using? Which translator did you buy a FPX license for?

mCAD is the 3D Model which we are generating using PCB Libraries Liecence in STEP. We would like to know the resolution of generated 3D Model by PCB libraries.
