The IGES file format is a Computer Aided Design (CAD) file format originally developed in the 1980s. With the many CAD applications available at the time, all using their own file format, the IGES format was created to be a standard format to exchange data between CAD applications.

All the common features of CAD files can be represented using the IGES format, including basic elements such as lines, curves, text, and other shapes, along with their visual properties such as their colour and other metadata.

The IGES format has since been superseded by other, more capable formats, such as STEP; however, IGES files can still be opened with some modern CAD applications. We also have tools for converting IGES files to other CAD and 3D model formats.

IGES Converter Capabilities

Currently, our IGES converter can only convert from IGES files, our developers are working to allow converting to IGES files in future versions of our tools.
