Convert AutoCAD to GLTF Files

AutoCAD to GLTF Conversion

Quick, clean, and easy - export AutoCAD drawings to GLTF in just three simple steps:

1. Download & Install:

   Export GLTF files directly from AutoCAD drawings using our Automesher Application - simply install the plugin and restart your CAD session.

2. Execute GLTF Export:

   Launch the export process by typing AmExportMesh in the command line. Then, select the desired 3D entities (Polyface Mesh, Polygon Mesh, 3D Solid, 3D Face, or other 3D drawing entities) from your AutoCAD model space.

3. Save as GLTF File:

   In the save dialog, set the file type to GLTF (*.gltf), choose your save location, enter a filename, and click Save to complete the export.

DWG AutoCAD Drawing

Autodesk's AutoCAD is a leading software program in the field of Computer Aided Design (CAD). It is renowned for its support of the native DWG drawing format. Widely used by architects, engineers, and designers, AutoCAD enables precise 2D drafting and 3D modeling. Its powerful tools streamline the creation of technical drawings, floor plans, and construction documentation.

Key Features of AutoCAD

• 2D Drafting & 3D Modeling:

  Create precise technical drawings and realistic 3D models with a comprehensive set of tools.

• Customization & Automation:

  Use AutoLISP, scripts, and ObjectARX (AutoCAD’s advanced API) to build custom applications and automate workflows.

• Native DWG Support:

  Work seamlessly with AutoCAD’s proprietary DWG format, ensuring optimal performance, compatibility, and data integrity.

• Dynamic Blocks:

  Create intelligent, reusable blocks with adjustable properties.

With support for popular 3D formats like STL, SKP, and OBJ, as well as GIS standards including SHP and KML, these tools allow you to incorporate real-world geospatial information and complex 3D models into your CAD environment. Don't limit your AutoCAD designs - expand your possibilities with our Automesher & Automapki applications!

GLB Graphics Language Transmission File

A file format developed and maintained by the Khronos Group organization, a consortium of industry leaders that creates open standards for graphics, media, and parallel computing. It is designed to facilitate the efficient storage and exchange of 3D models.

Key Features of GLTF/GLB

• GLTF Versions:

  There are two versions of the GLTF file format that are available:

  • GLTF 1.0:

    Supports basic geometry, simple materials with textures, basic skeletal animations with joint hierarchies, scenes with a single root node and a hierarchy of child nodes, etc.

  • GLTF 2.0:

    Supports more features, such as PBR (Physically Based Rendering) materials, Draco compression, advanced skeletal animations, skinning, morph targets, etc.

• ASCII and Binary Modes:

  By default, a GLTF file is saved in ASCII text mode, which is human-readable and easy to edit. To save a GLTF file with all referenced texture images in binary mode, the GLB file extension should be used. This reduces the file size and the number of files.

• Embedded Textures:

  GLTF/GLB files allow for a more streamlined and efficient way to manage 3D assets. By storing textures directly within the file, these formats eliminate the need for separate image files, making the 3D model self-contained and easier to distribute.

GLTF/GLB File Conversion

Autoconverter and Automesher Application allow you to import and export GLTF and GLB files, and convert them into various other 3D file formats. Our products also support the use of Draco compression, which can significantly reduce the size of GLTF and GLB files without compromising visual fidelity.
