CAD Exchanger Command Line offers conversion of CAD models across supported formats in background mode. This is especially useful when you need to convert large sets of legacy data.

CAD Exchanger Command Line Interface (CLI) reuses all capabilities of GUI (except visualization) – setting user-defined parameters, merging different files into one, dynamic loading of plug-ins, etc.

Here is an example of using CAD Exchanger from the command prompt:

> CADExchangerConv.exe –i C:\models\nut.igs –e C:\output\nut.sat – converts an IGES file to ACIS

> CADExchangerConv.exe –i C:\models\part1.stp C:\models\part2.stp C:\models\part3.stp –e C:\output\assembly.stp – merges 3 STEP files into single STEP assembly

> CADExchangerConv.exe –i model.sat –e model.stl model.wrl model.step model.igs model.brep – converts SAT file into STL, VRML, STEP, IGES and BRep

Type ‘CADExchangerConv.exe –h’ for usage details.

CAD Exchanger Command Line internally uses CAD Exchanger SDK to perform conversion.
