conversion of file types.

Anonymous — Mon, 02 Apr 2018 19:52:56 GMT

I have to send an assembly out to be 3-D modeled and they told me that it has to be one of these:

DAE, OBJ, STL, X3D, X3DB, X3DV, WRL

I have never dealt with any of these. All my files are Inventor based. Can I convert Inventor files to these?

Thanks for any help

Open your assembly, then select File, Export, CAD Format and select the type of file you want to export. You can get STL and OBJ from this menu.

Hello MshutekPRG5X,
As jhackney1972 mentioned, Inventor can export OBJ and STL format only unfortunately.
DEA and WRL seem to be able to be exported by 3ds MAX.
Thanks,
