How to convert asm to igs file

Individual parts and even whole assembly models can be most likely exported and saved in the IGES format and this should also apply to models from Solid Edge assembly files (.asm). Such asm to igs conversion can be done either with some CAD / 3D modeling software or with a dedicated conversion program.

Understanding ASM and IGS file formats

The ASM file format is primarily associated with assembly files used in CAD (Computer-Aided Design) software, such as PTC Creo or SolidWorks. These files contain information about the assembly of different parts in a 3D model, including the relationships and constraints between them.

On the other hand, the IGS file format, also known as IGES (Initial Graphics Exchange Specification), is a widely-used standard for exchanging 3D models between different CAD systems. IGS files store information about the geometry, topology, and structure of 3D models, making them ideal for sharing and collaboration across different platforms.

How to convert ASM to IGS

Converting an ASM file to an IGS file involves exporting the assembly data into a format that can be universally understood by various CAD software. This process ensures that the 3D model's geometry and structure are preserved during the conversion.

Best software for ASM to IGS conversion

One of the best software options for converting ASM files to IGS is PTC Creo. This software provides robust tools for handling complex assemblies and exporting them into different formats, including IGS.

To convert an ASM file to IGS using PTC Creo, follow these steps:

  • Open the ASM file in PTC Creo.
  • Go to the File menu and select Export.
  • Choose IGES as the export format.
  • Specify the desired export settings and click OK to save the IGS file.

Another reliable option is SolidWorks, which also supports ASM to IGS conversion. The process is similar, involving opening the ASM file and using the FileSave As option to select the IGS format.
