DWG to STL
Please find below the list of our other useful resources related to the DWG and STL interoperability and exchange that can help you with the DWG to STL conversion.
- Working with STL Files in AutoCAD
- Import STEP, STL, OBJ, 3DM, SKP and other 3D files in AutoCAD
- Import and export STL, OBJ, 3DS, PLY, 3DM, SKP, IGES and STEP files
- Convert Polyface Mesh to Solid in AutoCAD
- Export OBJ, STL, 3DM, SKP, PLY and other 3D files in AutoCAD
DWG File
DWG (AutoCAD Drawing) binary file format was developed by Autodesk company for AutoCAD, but it is also supported by the other software packages, such as ZWCAD, BricsCAD, and IntelliCAD. Therefore, DWG files are the standard now in the overall CAD industry. You can use our Automesher Application and Automapki Application with AutoCAD, Bricscad, and ZWCAD to seamlessly convert DWG drawing entities into various file formats. This enables you to easily share your AutoCAD designs across different platforms and applications.
STL File
STL (STereoLithography) is a file format developed by 3D Systems company, the world leader in the 3D printing industry. STL files contain triangular mesh only, without face color, texture, transparency and named groups data. While it is possible to assign RGB color value for each individual vertex, Autoconverter our STL file converter doesn't support this STL file extension. You can save STL files in binary or ASCII text file format, with the preference for the former one due to significant STL file size reduction. The triangles in STL files are always defined in millimeters therefore our STL converters will make the necessary unit conversion if required.
