I exported the step entity model in the non-sequence of zemax, which cannot be opened in catia

and, the step entity model exported by catia cannot be opened in zemax

Is it the model export problem or the software problem?

Zemax is not compatible with CATIA. Maybe you should assemble the model into a three-dimensional model structure. Of course, you can try it by speos, because your optical system can be imported from zemax to speos, and then you can analyse its  optical performance. 

Best wishes!
