Convert DWG to DAE - Fast & Accurate Drawing Conversion

DWG to DAE Conversion

Our powerful exporter makes exporting DWG drawings to DAE as easy as 1-2-3:

1. Install Automesher Application

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

2. Execute DAE 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 DWG model space that you want to export.

3. Save as DAE Mesh File

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

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

DAE DAE File Format (COLLADA) - 3D Model Exchange Standard

DAE (Digital Asset Exchange) is a widely supported, XML-based 3D file format designed for seamless interoperability between digital content creation tools. Developed by Sony and maintained by the Khronos Group, the COLLADA standard enables the efficient exchange of complex 3D assets - including mesh geometries, materials, skeletons, and animation data—across different software platforms.

Key Features of DAE/COLLADA Files

• Reusable Geometry: Enables multiple objects to reference the same geometry instance, minimizing file size and improving performance.
• Multi-Texture Support: Supports advanced material properties with multiple texture images and coordinate sets for each mesh face.
• Opacity and Object Grouping: Allows control over transparency and organizes objects into named groups for easier scene editing and manipulation.

Convert DAE Files to Other 3D Formats

With Autoconverter and Autoshaper, you can accurately convert DAE (COLLADA) files to other popular 3D formats such as STL, OBJ, SKP, DWG, 3MF, and more. These tools use the open-source OpenCOLLADA framework to ensure full support for both COLLADA 1.4 and 1.5 specifications. Preserve animations, materials, and scene hierarchy with reliable conversion powered by OpenCOLLADA.

Streamline your 3D pipeline with powerful DAE file conversion tools - ideal for game developers, animators, and CAD professionals working across platforms.
