Convert IDW to IAM

What is IDW file?

The IDW file extension is utilized by Autodesk 3D Studio, and stands for Inventor Drawing. It is a vector image type developed by Autodesk for 2D and 3D drawing using the Autodeks Inventor tool. It uses lines, arcs, circles and other geometric shapes to create a drawing. IDW files may contain references to other Inventor documents as well as display something like a color set or line style set. [ ⏩ ] IDW file extension

What is IAM file?

The .IAM is an Inventor Assembly File type, developed by Autodesk. It's associated with Autodesk Inventor, a?parametric 3D product design program for industrial design purpose, released back in 1999. An IAM file represents an assembly design project, containing the details of all components and parts assembled there as well as related data and graphics like 3D objects. Structure An IAM file is usually compiled from individual component files, such as .IDW, .IDD, .IPT, and others. [ ⏩ ] IAM file extension

How to convert the file from IDW to IAM?

To successfully convert the IDW file to IAM, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.IDW). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case IAM (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than IAM).

What is a file conversion?

A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. IDW to IAM. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.

Program for converting IDW files to IAM files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension IAM, while before this step we had the IDW file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new IAM file, or not.
