How to Export AutoCAD MEP model to SolidWorks?

The Multi-CAD collaboration is facing multiple challenges. The BIMDeX Data Exchange Ecosystem through its proprietary BXF file format offers a simple yet intuitive solution for the Interoperability challenges.

AutoCAD MEP to SolidWorks data Exporter/Converter is a simple way of data exchange through plug-in/add-on tool which creates native SolidWorks Parts (.sldprt) and Assemblies (.sldasm) from AutoCAD MEP models (.dwg)
Exports your AutoCAD MEP model into a .BXF file using BXF Exporter Plug-in. Which can be Imported in the SolidWorks platform using BXF Importer Plug-in.
There will be no loss in geometry or any other meta data, all the associated properties would be brought in and the RGB colors as well.
The tool supports various industry specific requirements like geometric simplification, parameter data exchange.
It comes with multilingual support (English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, etc.)

Supported Version:

AutoCAD MEP: 2020 - 2023

SolidWorks : 2016 - 2023

AutoCAD MEP to SolidWorks Conversion Features

Expose AutoCAD MEP platform into the BIM environment with easy transfer of AutoCAD MEP models to SolidWorks, other BIM and mechanical software. Control and safe data transfer.

Convert All AutoCAD MEP Geometry With Native Catogories

All your AutoCAD MEP geometries will be exported along with native catogories into SolidWorks models

Layer or Block Specific Export

Export based on your desired layers, block name or group name and group the geometry based on Layer Hierarchy or Layer Name or Object type.

Geometry Selection and Customization

Export models based on Internal Origin or Custom UCS from AutoCAD MEP and Include or Exclude Locked components, Hidden components, Duplicated Components, Attachment and Orphan geometries.

Better Geometry Conversion

Smoothen the edges for meshes and obtain non-triangulated solid geometry. Instantiate the blocks and maintain the hierarchy inside SolidWorks.

Parameters and Materials

Export models with parameter and material information (RGB colors) and maintain the same in SolidWorks.

Easy Operation

Make use of various features to simplify your models with the user-friendly interface combined with easy operation to assist novice and experienced designers alike.
