Finding the natives

3D Design Volume Model
1

Hello everyone,

I work in a design office for the company WIMOVE (we do home automation, check out our website www.wimove.fr).

I would like to have a young "padawan" from an engineering school or a BTS in internship.

My question, I would like to know, if it works under another software than us (Inventor 2014), could I recover a drawing AND its associated native?
Like if he works with Solidwork, he creates a cube with this drawing. If he saves them in .step (for the cube) and DXF or DWG (for his drawing), will I be able to make the link between the plan and the room? (in order to make changes).

Thank you in advance.

Hello

STEP or DXF files are neutral interchange formats. They are therefore autonomous and not associative with the native file (3D or plan).

This solution does not work to recover from the native of another software under inventor. For this you should rather try to find a conversion software. But you can't necessarily transform just any format into another and most often it pays off. it is not even certain that it retains the link between 3D and 2D.

Hello, I don't think it's possible to recover the 2. The only solution I see is DXF or DWG 3D, see here: http://www.mycadblog.fr/transformer-fichier-solidworks-en-dwg-ou-dxf-3d/ Then in DraftSight, you can create sheets for drawing: you retrieve all the information in Inventor.

ok I'll test that!

Thank you

Hello via this link of the Datakit converter log I think there is a walkthrough a try is possible for this contact @ Felix member of lynkoa

There are also paid options where you can take over the creation trees

Thank you very much for your answers.

So I know where I stand if I have an intern.

Good luck and thank you again.

I like the motorization system you make
