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.
How It Works
AutoCAD MEP to Inventor Conversion Workflow
01
AutoCAD MEP
DWG file Format
Export the AutoCAD MEP Model to BXF file using the BXF Exporter for AutoCAD MEP
02
BIMDeX
BXF file Format
BXF file would carry all the design data information of the model.
03
Inventor
IPT & IAM file Formats
Import the BXF file in Inventor using the BIMDeX Importer to obtain native Inventor Parts and Assemblies
How Is It Different?
AutoCAD MEP to Inventor Conversion Features
Expose AutoCAD MEP platform into the BIM environment with easy transfer of AutoCAD MEP models to Inventor, 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 Inventor 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 Inventor .
Parameters and Materials
Export models with parameter and material information (RGB colors) and maintain the same in Inventor .
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.
