Convert IGES to DAE
| File Extension | IGES |
| Full Name | Initial Graphics Exchange Specification Format |
IGES is an extension given to files used by CAD graphics design programs. IGES are files that are a data exchange format between applications. This can be information about 2D graphics and 3D models (shapes, dimensions, properties).
| File Extension | DAE |
| Full Name | Collada 3D Digital Asset Format |
File with a .DAE extension contains a 3D image stored in a format based on the XML COLLADA – COLLAborative Design Activity. Such files are utilised for the purpose of inter-platform exchange of digital data, they are used by many different programs.
What is file format conversion?
File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "IGES") to another (referred to as "DAE"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, IGES file may be incompatible with the software or device we want to use to open or edit it. In such cases, converting the file from format IGES to format DAE becomes essential.
So, how can we perform IGES to DAE file conversion? Fortunately, there are many tools and computer programs available that enable file format conversion. These tools work by reading the data from the file in format IGES and transforming it into format DAE. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of IGES to DAE converters.
Conversion from IGES to DAE
How to convert the IGES file to DAE?
If you have already downloaded one of the converters and installed it on your computer, you can proceed to the appropriate conversion process of IGES to DAE. Handling all the programs is usually very intuitive and is based on the same pattern of conduct. We will briefly discuss a few steps that you always need to go through while changing the format of the IGES file:
- Please indicate on your computer the source file IGES, the format of which you are going to change
- Load the IGES file to the application
- Select the output format of the DAE file (the one that we want to achieve)
- Select the location to save the output file DAE on the disk (the place where the program will save the converted file)
- Confirm conversion
- Wait for a moment
- Enjoy the converted DAE file that can be found in the location selected in step 4

I cannot see the file extensions. What should I do?
File extensions are not normally displayed to users. To change this, go to Control Panel, select Appearance and Personalization and Folder Options. Next, select the View and find the option "Hide extensions for known file types". The option should be deselected (cleared) and confirmed with OK.
