DWG to DGN CONVERSION

Due to our extensive experience with the industry we have a very good understanding of the requirements when converting AutoCad DWG files into standard compatible Bentley Microstation DGN files

Extensive Industry experience enables to provide compatible DWG to DGN CAD file conversion.

What is a DWG to DGN CAD File conversion?

DWG to DGN conversion

The companies produce drawings that include electrical layouts, component drawings & schematics in AutoCAD from Autodesk. Certain industries come with specific standards in regards to CAD file types to be used. The rail industry comes with the mining industry in Australia, which uses Bentley Micro-station as standard CAD Software. It comes with suppliers that provide drawing in Microstation file format, called DGN.

AutoCAD has, in recent years, added an export function within the software to Export to DGN. Also, Bentley Microstation can open DWG files and save them as DGN files. Based on this, there should be no problem then. It is not that simple when you need to adhere to CAD Standards set out by the industry. The files need to be referenced in a certain way, like Xref for AutoCAD, and there should be specific levels used like layers for AutoCad.

How can we assist with DWG to DGN Conversion?

DWG to DGN Format Conversion provides AutoCAD (DWG) to MicroStation (DGN) conversion. It enables access and edits DWG files in DGN format. The conversion of files from DWG to DGN format ensures compatibility between various CAD systems. We follow CAD standards and provides error-free CAD conversions.

Usually, the drawing requires a CAD Conversion with 2D Drawings of electrical or mechanical layouts, component drawings or schematics. Firstly, we would obtain the relevant CAD Standard and establish a contact person within network rail or LUL whom we can work with. As these projects are often multiple drawings. We worked on projects by converting 10 drawings to 1000+. Our experts use best CAD programs to convert dwg and help customer grow globally.

Usually, the following work can be required

Clean out existing DWG Files (remove redundant layers, blocks etc.)
Assign new Levels within Micro-station
Reference and fill out new Title block
Check all Reference Files
Check Model Origins

To assure the standards, we would work directly with Network Rail or LUL that is most preferred.

Send us your DWG files that convert them to DGN files or vice versa. We convert CAD files from any version of DWG, AutoCAD 2000, AutoCAD 2006, AutoCAD 2005, AutoCAD 2004, AutoCAD 2002, AutoCAD 2000i, AutoCAD 2007 and older versions) To any version of DGN (V7 and V8 MX). Our methodology retains the layers and levels during the conversion from DGN to DWG.

How much does a DWG to DGN CAD Conversion cost?

It depends on the quality of the existing DWG files, and far they differ from the required CAD Standard. We usually produce a sample file which then gets signed. Based on that sample file, we establish an average per file price. We use to carry out small projects as well as conversion from +1000 files.

How secure are is our information with Drafting Australia?

Especially for work such as CAD Conversion, many companies seek to outsource the work to countries such as India as this seems cheaper in the first instance. We add that we, as a company policy, do not outsource our work. All our work is carried out in Australian based offices with our dedicated servers.
