How to convert PTC Creo/View (ProductView,.pvs,.pvz,.ol) to SketchUp (.skp,.skb)?

PolyTrans|CAD+DCC performs mathematically precise CAD, DCC/Animation, GIS and BIM 3D file conversions into all key downstream 3D packages and file formats. Okino software is used and trusted throughout the world by many tens of thousands of 3D professionals in mission & production critical environments, backed by respectable personal support directly from our core development team.

PTC Creo/View

ProductView, now Creo Elements/View, is a 3D visualization tool developed by PTC. PTC is also known for their other software packages such as Creo Elements/Pro (previously known as Pro/Engineer) and Creo Elements/Direct (previously known as CoCreate).

For over 3 decades Okino has been a primary conversion partner of PTC, especially for our core business focussing on the conversion of PTC's native ProE/Creo (ASM and PRT) and ProductView (PVS, PVZ, OL) files.

Okino licenses the real and actual ProE/Creo runtime toolkits from PTC directly and hence provides the functionality to import native ProductView .PVS, .PVZ and .OL files.

SketchUp

SketchUp is a popular 3D design product originally developed by @Last Software and now owned by Trimble, Inc. It uses the .skp and .skb file extensions.

Okino recognized the growing popularity of SketchUp (well before it was purchased by Google and then Trimble) and as such we worked directly with the original SketchUp developer to create the first set of independent, professional and fully compliant SketchUp 3D converters outside of the SketchUp program itself.
