import ansys file

I'm trying to export models from ansys to z88aurora.
I have read the tutorial "Beispiel_Import_ANSYS_Vierkantrohr-Schalen" in the web:
http://fem-helden.de/beispiel-ansys-imp ... s-schalen/
In this tutorial I have seen that the author uses a file .ans
Does anyone know how the model is obtained in that type of file in ansys?
I tested with different export commands, obtaining cbd, igs, log ... but not with the structure used in the tutorial like .ans
Thank you very much for your contribution.

Dear emartin,

the ANSYS-Importer was developed to import files made with Pro/ENGINEER (Creo) or Pro/MECHANICA (Creo Simulate) in ANSYS PREP7-Format (*.ans).
You must only use one body and one element type, compatible element types are: Tetrahedrons, plates, shells and tori.
Files exported from ANSYS workbench might not work at all due to this restriction. You would have to write your own converter for example with Perl (works fine once you worked yourself into the ANSYS file reference).

Kind regards,
SHautsch
