To Export the Current Drawing to an Step File (AutoCAD Mechanical…

1. At the Command prompt, enter STEPOUT.
2. In the STEPOUT Translation dialog box, in the Files of type box, select *. ste,*. stp, or *. step.
3. In the File Name box, specify the name of the STEP file.
4. Click Save.

AutoCAD Mechanical supports a dedicated command to translate STEP files into the DWG format. Find and select the STEP file you want to import, or enter the name of the STEP file at File Name. Click Open.

STEP – The New Normal Though IGES has been around longer, the information-rich STEP file could very well take over as the leading industry standard. STEP files contain all the same CAD information as IGES, as well as more robust 3D part data such as material properties, dimensional tolerances, and more.

How do I open an STEP file? You can open a STEP file in a variety of CAD programs, including Autodesk Fusion 360 (cross-platform), IMSI TurboCAD (Windows, Mac), FreeCAD (cross-platform), and Dassault Systemes CATIA (Windows, Linux).

You can open IGS files with various desktop CAD programs, such as Autodesk Fusion 360 (Windows), Dassault Systemes CATIA (multiplatform), Nemetschek VectorWorks (multiplatform), and CADEX CAD Exchanger (macOS).

Parasolid file format is native for Parasolid geometrical kernel. Today it is widely used in a range of applications, including SolidWorks, SolidEdge, NX, Microstation, Ansys, Abaqus and others. Parasolid is also used to provide precise geometrical definitions of parts in JT files (as XT B-Rep data segments).

DWG

STEP files tend to be solid models, where IGES files are more often surface models, which could have gaps and missing faces. STEP is a mature file format, it has been available for over 20 years with continual development and wide adoption between CAD vendors.

To set the Parasolid export options:

1. Open the SOLIDWORKS document that you want to export as a Parasolid file.
2. Click File > Save As. The Save As dialog box appears.
3. Set Save as type to Parasolid (*. x_t) or Parasolid Binary (*.
4. Select from the following options: Option.
5. Click OK, then click Save to export the document.

An X_T file is a model part file created by Parasolid, a CAD geometric modeling program. It contains 3D model data such as geometry, topology, and color. The X_T files are saved in text format and can be exported and imported using a variety of other CAD programs.

The best option on the market for viewing various types of CAD files is the Autodesk Viewer tool. The viewer is free to use and runs in your web browser (no install required).

Parasolid is a geometric modeling kernel originally developed by Shape Data Limited, now owned by Siemens PLM Software (formerly UGS Corp.), that can be licensed by other companies for use in their 3D computer graphics software products.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. A geometric modeling kernel is a 3D solid modeling software component used in computer-aided design packages. Available modelling kernels include: ACIS is developed and licensed by Spatial Corporation of Dassault Systèmes.

Since that time, Werner Meyer is a very active developer of FreeCAD. In 2005, after one year of struggle, I decided to rip of the OpenCascade document framework and replace it with an own implementation. So, at the end, we only use the CAD kernel of OpenCascade and not the rest of its Framework.
