BricsCAD to PLY Conversion

Exporting BricsCAD drawings to PLY has never been this smooth - follow our 3-step guide:

  1. Install Automesher Application

    Export PLY mesh files directly from BricsCAD drawings using Automesher Application - simply install the plugin and restart your CAD software.

  2. Execute PLY Export

    Enter AmExportMesh in the command line. Then, select the 3D entities (e.g., Polyface Mesh, Polygon Mesh, 3D Solid, or 3D Face) from your BricsCAD model space that you want to export.

  3. Save as PLY Mesh File

    Select PLY (*.ply) as file type, choose the destination folder and file name, then click Save to complete the export.

CAD BricsCAD Drawing - DWG File Format and Conversion

BricsCAD by Bricsys is a leading CAD software platform known for its powerful drafting, modeling, and automation capabilities. It provides a cost-effective alternative to traditional CAD solutions, offering full native compatibility with the latest DWG file format. Designed for professionals in architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC industries), BricsCAD combines familiar workflows with advanced technologies such as AI-driven drawing assistance and 3D direct modeling tools.

Key Features of BricsCAD Software

  • Full DWG Compatibility: Native support for the latest DWG versions ensures seamless collaboration with AutoCAD and other industry-standard CAD applications.
  • AI-Powered Drawing Automation: Accelerate design workflows with BricsCAD Shape and AI-based machine learning tools for smarter, faster drafting.
  • Direct 3D Modeling: Push-pull intuitive editing tools allow for rapid conceptual design, 3D modeling, and solid editing without complex commands.
  • Customization and Automation: Extend BricsCAD functionality using LISP routines, C++, .NET APIs, and ObjectBRX programming interfaces.

BricsCAD Drawing Conversion and Data Integration

Expand your BricsCAD capabilities with Automesher Application and Automapki Application add-ons. These tools enable direct import and export of 3D models and geospatial data in industry-standard formats:

  • 3D Model Support: Import and export STL, SKP (SketchUp), OBJ, and other popular 3D model formats directly into BricsCAD.
  • GIS Data Integration: Work with SHP (ESRI Shapefiles), KML (Google Earth files), and more to integrate geographic information into your CAD drawings.

Supercharge your workflow with Automesher and Automapki - the essential BricsCAD plug-ins for connecting 3D modeling and geospatial data, ensuring your designs are more powerful, flexible, and globally compatible.


PLY Polygon File

A a simple and flexible file format to store 3D mesh data. It supports vertices, faces (triangles/polygons), colors, normals, and custom properties. PLY is also known as the Stanford Triangle Format as it was developed at Stanford University in the early 1990s. It still remains a popular choice for storing 3D geometry.

Key Features of PLY

  • Flexible Structure: Supports vertices, faces (triangles/polygons), edges, and custom data.
  • Properties: Can store RGB colors, normals, texture coordinates, transparency, and user-defined attributes.
  • ASCII & Binary Formats: PLY files can be saved in ASCII (readable) or binary (compact) form.
