Import 3D files from SketchUp Pro

Hi all! Im wondering if anyone tryed to import 3D files from SketchUp pro to robotstudio. I looked in the knowledge center for sketchup and the program support 3ds files export, but i would like to be sure it works before i buy the program. Or if anyone have a good tip of a cheap 3D program to draw stuff for import in RS. Thank you in advance :) //dave

  • I have not tried to import anything from Sketchup myself.

    There seems to be an 8 hour trial of Sketchup Pro, so you should be able to try it out before you buy it.


  • Ok thanks, I missed the trial info i would try that.

     I found another program DesignSpark 3D-cad(free ware). I downloaded the program and exported some 3D parts to .stl files and imported the files in robotstudio, and it worked =).

    But maybe SketchUp Pro is better to draw 3 models in, other than a freeware program, i would try this out.
