How can I import STP and IGES files into Bricscad?

Folke Stenman

I regularly receive STP and/or IGS files from customers. How can I convert those to a format read by Bricscad? I can open them in FreeCAd, but I do not find a way to convert them into anything that Bricscad recognizes.

Hello Folke,

Check out www.sycode.com

They have a number of interesting plugins for all CAD systems, including BrcisCAD, and this includes STEP/IGS import/export also.

What I understand is that they are not available on the current release of BricsCAD. You may want to check with them direct and let us know what you find.

Have you tried FreeCAD DXF export?

Folke, Rakesh, All,

Sycode let us know that they intend to update all the BricsCAD plug-ins and that they will strive to deliver them by the end of Q1.

To see all of the available plug-ins for BricsCAD, just search for "Sycode" on the Solution Store.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,

Guy

Good to hear about that, Guy.

Look forward to seeing the SYCODE plugins back in action.

The FreeCAD DXF export only exports a 2D view.
