This is a great contribution!
I had no problems viewing the model with a VRML viewer (i use Cortona MS internet explorer plugin from parallelgraphics.com) even though a bit slow to turn the model on my overclocked AMD Athlon XP 2400.
I tried importing the model into 3D-Studio and it crashed.
I tried to use another converter and it crashed.
I tried to import the model into blender3d and only part of the model appeared.
I had a look at the file itself and it seems to contain no object-names and no hierarchy information.
You can see lines in the form of
DEF _20BE6D88 which define objects and then
USE _20BE6D88 which place the object in the scene using a given transform.
Can you please save the file in several formats including the original Catia, IGES and anything else your Export-> menu offers. Is there an option to save an animation ? since such a file will definitely have all the right matrix transforms.
