file converter

[tgriffin61]

I need to convert an Esprit drawing file with a .esp extension to Mastercam x2

[Superman]

I dug up a list that Esprit suports, try only the common converters to translate.

Can you export the Esprit drawing into another format that Mastercam can be read ?

 

It depends on what is in your drawing as to the method you should use. Check your help pages as to what the limitations that each converter has before we really confuse you here.

 

eg STEP, STL, X_T, Iges are good for things that have volume ( solids, surfaces, etc)

where DXF, DWG are good for 2D, 3D wire-frames and such.

I'm assuming that a customer supplied you an esprit file and you dont have esprit and you want to read it into mcam??

 

I have esprit solidwire platinum, if you send me the file, maybe I can convert it in esprit to a dwg or something mcam will read.
