Convert BricsCAD to STEP - Efficient & Reliable Drawing Conversion

BricsCAD to STEP Conversion

Take the hassle out of exporting BricsCAD drawings to STEP - it's just three steps away:

1. Install Automesher Application

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

2. Execute STEP 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 STEP File

   Select STEP (*.stp, *.step) 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.

STP STEP File Format (Standard for the Exchange of Product Model Data)

The STEP file format (also known as STP) is a widely recognized ISO standard for exchanging 3D data across different computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), and computer-aided engineering (CAE) systems. Designed for seamless interoperability, STEP files enable accurate, reliable sharing of complex 3D models across industries like engineering, aerospace, and manufacturing.

Key Features and Benefits of STEP Files

• Universal Interoperability: As an ISO-standardized format, STEP files eliminate vendor lock-in, supporting smooth 3D data exchange between major CAD software such as SolidWorks, NX, Creo, CATIA, AutoCAD, and more.
• Broad Software Compatibility: Widely accepted across industries, STEP (.stp, .step) files ensure consistent workflows and simplify collaboration between different design teams and software platforms.
• High Precision and Integrity: Unlike mesh-based formats like SKP, OBJ, or STL, STEP files maintain the exact geometry, dimensions, and topological details of 3D models without introducing mesh distortions or inaccuracies.
• Assembly Color Support: STEP files retain color information at the assembly level, enhancing design visualization. However, they do not support transparency effects (alpha channel), so transparent objects are rendered opaque.

How to Convert and Optimize STEP Files

Large STEP files can be a challenge, especially when dealing with complex or highly detailed models. Our Autoconverter software provides an efficient solution, allowing you to optimize and convert STEP files easily. By using the faceted BREP (Boundary Representation) method, Autoconverter can significantly reduce file sizes - sometimes by up to 30% - without losing critical model fidelity.

Powered by the industry-leading Open Cascade technology stack, Autoconverter ensures full compatibility with the latest STEP standards and offers fast, high-quality STEP to STL, OBJ, SKP, or other 3D file format conversions. Start optimizing and converting your STEP files today with our powerful tools!
