How to convert prt to dwg file

Generally speaking, .prt files used to store 3D models of components or mechanical parts as well as to exchange these models between CAD applications. If you need to export the data to DWG format, you have to use a program that allows this kind of data translation.

Most of the modern CAD programs should be able to perform prt to dwg conversion, that is at least of the most common .prt files from industry standards (Creo, Solid Edge etc.).

Understanding PRT and DWG file formats

The PRT file format is commonly associated with CAD software, specifically used by PTC Creo, a 3D CAD solution. PRT files contain 3D models and are used for product design and development. On the other hand, the DWG file format is a widely used format for storing 2D and 3D design data. It is the native format for AutoCAD and is supported by many other CAD applications. DWG files are essential for architects, engineers, and designers for sharing and collaborating on design projects.

How to convert PRT to DWG

Converting a PRT file to a DWG file involves using software that can read PRT files and export them as DWG files. This conversion is crucial for sharing designs with users who rely on AutoCAD or other DWG-compatible software.

Best software for PRT to DWG conversion

One of the best software options for converting PRT to DWG is PTC Creo itself, as it natively supports PRT files. To convert a PRT file to DWG in PTC Creo, follow these steps:

  • Open the PRT file in PTC Creo.
  • Go to the File menu.
  • Select Export.
  • Choose DWG as the export format.
  • Save the file to your desired location.

Another option is to use Autodesk Inventor, which can import PRT files and export them as DWG files. The process is similar: import the PRT file, then use the FileExportDWG option to save the file.
