EASM File

Anonymous — Sun, 12 Feb 2017 09:04:09 GMT

I am trying to upload an EASM file in Fusion. This opens my web browser and a "conversion page" comes up. There is an icon on the left that indicates that something is happening (spinning circle thingy). But after many hours nothing happens. Tried it a few times and never works. The actual object is not complex.

Hi @Anonymous

Unfortunately Fusion doesn't support that file format.

The following file types can be imported into Fusion 360:

Autodesk Alias (*.wire)
AutoCAD DWG Files (*.dwg)
Autodesk Fusion 360 Archive Files (*.f3d)
Autodesk Fusion 360 Toolpath Archive Files (*.cam360)
Autodesk Inventor Files (*.ipt, *.iam)
CATIA V5 Files (*.CATProduct, *.CATPart)
DXF Files (*.dxf)
FBX (*.fbx)
IGES (*ige, *iges, *igs)
NX (*prt)
OBJ (*.obj)
Parasolid Binary Files (*.x_b)
Parasolid Text Files (*.x_t)
Pro/ENGINEER and Creo Parametric Files (*.asm, *.prt)
Pro/ENGINEER Granite Files (*.g)
Pro/ENGINEER Neutral Files(*.neu)
Rhino Files (*.3dm)
SAT/SMT Files (*.sab, *.sat, *.smb, *.smt)
SolidWorks Files (*.prt, *.asm, *.sldprt, *.sldasm)
STEP Files (*.ste, *.step, *.stp)
STL Files (*.stl)
SketchUp Files (*.skp)

Regards,

Josef

Can you request *.sldasm and *.sldprt files from the source, or *.STEP file?

Yes - but just wanted to know why Fusion tries to open the file and gets stuck

Can you open the file in SolidWorks? (Hint: The correct answer is - no. The file is created as a viewer file, not a geometry file.)

Do you have prior experience with *.easm files?

Ok Thanks - no i do not use solidworks. I just received the file which I could effectively see with the viewer but not open in Fusion.
