File conversion help please

[studysession]

Hi -

I am using TurboCAD Pro 14. I have a lot of Solid Cam file with a SLDPRT file extension. How do I convert these to DWG or DXF files? Is there a free program to download and do this with? If so, what program?

Thanks -
SS

SLDPRT is a SolidWorks extension.
To Open you will need a program to accept this type.
SW will open and BobCadV21. Not sure what others.
From there you will be able to save as DWG or DXF.

Are there any free programs that wil convert these to formats I can use?

Study,

Like KIWI said, the SLDPRT file is a SolidWorks file. But also note that it is most likely a 3D Solid object file where DXF is a 2D drawing like file output. Are you looking for 3D like IGES or for 2D machining?

In a format hat Mach3 can handle so 2D or 3D machining. Just don't want to purchasesomething expensive to just convrt files. So was hopng there was something free out there.

Thanks
