How to Convert DWG to BLEND❓

Say goodbye to complicated exports - Exporting DWG drawings to BLEND takes just 3 easy steps:

  1. 📐 Convert DWG to FBX with Automesher

    In DWG editor, export your DWG entities to the intermediate FBX file format using our Automesher Application, just follow our step-by-step DWG to FBX tutorial.

  2. 🐒 Import converted FBX into Blender

    Open Blender, go to File → Import and select the FBX created from your DWG drawing.

  3. 💾 Save DWG drawing as .blend

    After adjusting scale/orientation, go to File → Save As in Blender. Your DWG drawing is now preserved in a native .blend project.

DWG What is a DWG File? (AutoCAD 2D/3D CAD Drawing Explained)

The DWG file format is a proprietary binary format developed by Autodesk for storing 2D drawings and 3D models in CAD (Computer-Aided Design) workflows. As the native format for AutoCAD, DWG files are widely recognized as the industry standard across architecture, engineering, and construction sectors for their precision, flexibility, and cross-platform compatibility.

Key Features of DWG Files

  • Broad Compatibility: DWG files work seamlessly with popular CAD programs like AutoCAD, BricsCAD, ZWCAD, and IntelliCAD, ensuring easy sharing and collaboration across different software environments.
  • High-Precision Vector Data: DWG files store exact vector-based 2D graphics, 3D models, and rich metadata, making them ideal for detailed blueprints, architectural designs, and complex engineering projects.
  • Efficient Use of Blocks: DWG drawings support reusable "blocks" - predefined components like symbols or templates - that help streamline design workflows, ensure consistency, and reduce file sizes.

DWG File Conversion Made Simple

Looking to convert DWG files into popular 3D or GIS formats like OBJ, STL, DXF, KML, or KMZ? Our tools, Automesher Application and Automapki Application, enable fast, accurate DWG conversions while preserving design details.

BLEND Blender 3D (BLEND) Project File

The BLEND file is the native project format for Blender, the powerful open-source 3D modeling, animation, and rendering suite. Designed to store complete 3D scenes, BLEND files encapsulate models, textures, materials, lighting, animations, and scene settings - enabling a flexible, non-destructive workflow for artists, game developers, and 3D designers worldwide.

Key Features of BLEND Files

  • Comprehensive Project Storage: BLEND files consolidate models, rigs, textures, simulations, lighting setups, animations, and more into a single, manageable file.
  • Cross-Platform Compatibility: Fully supported across Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems with seamless interoperability.
  • Efficient File Compression: BLEND files utilize integrated gzip compression to minimize storage size while retaining all 3D project data.
  • Backward and Forward Compatibility: Blender ensures older BLEND files remain accessible and upgradeable in newer software versions, preserving your project history.
  • Multi-Format Export: Export from Blender to formats like FBX, OBJ, STL, GLTF, and more for enhanced versatility and pipeline integration.

Convert BLEND Files to CAD Formats

With our Autoconverter and Automesher Application, you can easily import BLEND files and convert them into various 3D file formats, including DWG, SKP, STEP, and FBX. This enables smooth transitions of your Blender-created 3D models into professional CAD workflows while maintaining geometry, object hierarchies, and layer structures.

Note: Our software currently supports importing BLEND files for conversion. Direct export to the BLEND format is not available. We ensure your 3D geometry and organizational data are preserved during the conversion process.
