AutoCAD to SKP Conversion

Streamline your export process - AutoCAD drawings to SKP in just 3 simple steps:

  1. Download & Install:

    Export SKP files directly from AutoCAD drawings using our Automesher Application - simply install the plugin and restart your CAD session.
  2. Execute SKP 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 SKP File:

    In the save dialog, set the file type to SKP (*.skp), 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.

SKP SketchUp File

A versatile 3D modeling format, native for SketchUp, initially developed by Google and now actively maintained by Trimble. Known for its efficiency and ease of use, SKP files are widely utilized in architecture, interior design, engineering, and product development.

Key Benefits and Features

  • 3D Model Data:

    SKP files support reusable geometry components, named mesh groups, and textured materials, enabling efficient modeling workflows. The ability to reuse components can significantly speed up the design process, making SKP files a valuable asset in both architectural and product design workflows.
  • Version Compatibility:

    Different SKP file versions have different requirements for conversion. For example, SKP file version 16 and above need Win64 build, while earlier versions can use Win32 build. It is important for users to be aware of these SKP version-specific requirements to ensure seamless SketchUp file sharing and collaboration.
  • Scalability:

    Whether you're designing a small furniture piece or an extensive urban landscape, SKP files efficiently handle models of varying complexity and scale. SketchUp's optimization ensures smooth performance even for large, detailed 3D scenes.

SKP File Conversion

SKP files can be saved and converted across multiple versions, from SketchUp 3 to SketchUp 2025, with the help of our Autoconverter, a powerful tool ensuring high accuracy and efficiency. Autoconverter allows users to convert SKP files between different versions, facilitating collaboration across various SketchUp versions and ensuring that designs can be accessed and modified regardless of the specific version used by different team members.
