How to convert XGL (ZGL) to Fusion 360?

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.

XGL

XGL/ZGL is a legacy 3D polygonal mesh file format that had been created by the RealityWave company in the late 1990s. AVEVA purchased RealityWave and integrated the file format into their PDMS products. Some other companies had added XGL/ZGL exporters into their software such as CATIA, MicroStation and Solid Edge.

As explained on the Okino ZGL import converter page, files can be imported from AVEVA PDMS via the ZGL file format and AVEVA's 'rvm2zgl.exe' program. However, in more recent years, you can export DWF-3D files from AVEVA PDMS and import those files directly into Okino software.

Fusion 360

Fusion 360 is a cloud-based CAD, CAM, CAE design software application, developed by Autodesk. It was first introduced in 2013. It has built-in capabilities to do 3D modeling, simulation and documentation. It can manage manufacturing processes such as machining, milling, turning and additive manufacturing. It also has electronic design automation (EDA) features, such as schema design, PCB design and component management.

Converting from Fusion 360 into Okino software can be handled by one of many file formats, such as: Autodesk Inventor .ipt, DXF/DWG, FBX, IGES, OBJ, SAT, SketchUp or STEP AP214. STEP is preferable.

Converting from Okino software into Fusion 360 can be handled in one of many ways, such as: FBX, Rhino .3dm, DXF/DWG (not recommended), Wavefront OBJ and SketchUp SKP.
