Next, reorder the tree so the extrude is before the other two sketches, and repeat the extrusion process with the Top and Right view, clearing the merge result check box: Next, you’ll extrude using the contour selection tool to extrude the areas where there will be material: This will get the 3 views into the correct orientation and location on the correct plane.
CTRL-select a couple sharp corners and click on the Align Sketch button: This will line up the Front and Top, and the Front and Right, but not the Top and Right. You’ll need to use the 2D to 3D toolbar, box select the lines that represent each view and click on the relative view button: If the data is clean, you can use it as is, but if there are many unwanted layers you can choose not to import them:Ĭlick finish and it will bring in all 3 views into one plane in SOLIDWORKS. Make sure you choose Import to a new part: Open the file in SOLIDWORKS, and select the DWG or DXF file. I’ve shown this in a number of my training classes over the years, but I thought it was about time to put it into a blog. There are many ways to convert DWG files into SOLIDWORKS, but I’ll show you my favorite.
