How to convert Vectorworks (.vwx) to BricsCAD?


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.

     

Vectorworks

Vectorworks is a computer-aided design (CAD) and Building Information Modeling (BIM) software program developed by Nemetschek Vectorworks that is used for drafting, technical drawing and 3D modeling. Vectorworks offers 2D, 3D, production management, and presentation capabilities for all phases of the design process.

Vectorworks exports to various 3D file formats with varying degrees of integrity. There are several "best conversion" methods from Vectorworks which will retain the geometry, part naming, assembly hierarchy, materials and texture map associations.

Based on real tests of complex Vectorworks models, you can export the model from Vectorworks using the Cinema-4D .c4d, COLLADA .dae, FilmBox .fbx and/or DWF-3D .dwf file formats. Please make sure to choose the correct Vectorworks export radio button option to retain the class structure (so that the part naming and assembly hierarchy is exported).

     

BricsCAD

BricsCAD is a software application for CAD, developed by Bricsys nv. It comes in several variations such as Lite, Pro, BIM, Mechanical and Ultimate.

Exportable file formats from BricsCAD (using the Communicator plugin) to Okino software are STEP, IGES, CATIA v5 and ACIS SAT.

The primary file format from Okino software to BricsCAD (using the Communicator plugin) is the JT file format.
