3D cad files from Eagle layout

autodeskguest
autodeskguest over 16 years ago

Does anyone know how to generate CAD 3D files (like STEP files or something)

from a board layout?

 

I have been using Eagle 3D, and it works great(!), but it only generates POV

files that I cannot use in our Pro/Engineer mechanics CAD system.

 

Best regards

Soren

    did not work. It gives me an error message first "no board-outline on

    layer 50 found" then about the ULP: Negative array index used.

     

    Has anyone else tried to make Mechanics CAD files from Eagle files?

    Hi,

    you see what you get image Draw your board-outline on layer 50. The ulp

    needs this to convert it to a idf/idb file. This files you can read by a

    cad-software like solid works ....

     

    best regards ggcode

     

    also search in the forum, there are many thraeds with 3d ....
