DWG 2D/3D CAD Drawing

A proprietary binary file format developed by Autodesk for storing 2D and 3D CAD (Computer-Aided Design) data, including vector graphics, metadata, and geometric models. As the native file format for AutoCAD, DWG is the industry-standard for engineering, architecture, and construction design due to its precision, versatility, and widespread compatibility.

Standout Features of DWG

• Compatibility:

  DWG drawings are compatible with other software packages, such as ZWCAD, Bricscad, and IntelliCAD, which also support the DWG format. This makes DWG files the industry-standard in CAD.

• High-Precision Vector-Based Design:

  DWG files store vector-based data, 2D drawings, and 3D models, along with metadata, making them highly versatile. Ideal for technical drawings and designs requiring extreme accuracy, such as engineering blueprints and architectural plans.

• Support for Blocks:

  DWG format supports for "blocks", which are reusable design elements like symbols or templates, which help improve efficiency, maintain consistency across designs, and reduce file size by reusing common components without duplicating DWG data.

DWG Drawing Converters

DWG drawings can be easily converted into various 3D and GIS file formats, such as OBJ, STL, DXF, KML, and KMZ, using our add-ons - Automesher Application and Automapki Application. This allows you to seamlessly share your AutoCAD DWG drawings across different platforms and applications. Convert DWG to SKP, KML, STL and more - try our converters with a free trial today!

USD Universal Scene Description

Developed by Pixar, is a robust framework for the interchange and collaborative editing of 3D graphics data. It has become essential in the computer graphics industry due to its comprehensive ecosystem that supports large-scale projects.

Key Features of USD/USDZ
