FBX to IGES: Resources
Refer to the following list for additional resources concerning the interoperability and exchange between FBX and IGES file formats. They will aid you in transitioning from FBX to IGES files.

Filmbox FBX File
FBX (Filmbox) is a proprietary file format initially developed by Kaydara and now owned by Autodesk, a leading company in 3D software products. The FBX file format can store transparent colors, texture images, reusable geometry components, assembly structures, and even model animation data. However, our FBX conversion software, Autoconverter and Autoshaper, currently do not support animation frames. To read and write Filmbox FBX files in the most efficient way, we utilize the official FBX SDK provided by Autodesk.
IGES File
The IGES (Initial Graphics Exchange Specification) file format serves as the foundational format for data exchange between various systems, including CAD, CAM, and CAE. Since IGES geometry data is stored in a text format, exporting triangular meshes with thousands or millions of faces using our Autoconverter software may result in larger file sizes. It’s important to note that while the IGES format supports color per assembly, it does not include an alpha component. Consequently, any transparency settings will be lost when saving your stunning 3D design in the IGES format.
