When you’re working with CAD drawings in different formats, it can be a challenge to keep everything compatible and accurate. At our team, we specialise in MicroStation conversion, giving you clean, ready-to-use drawings when you need them most.

Why Choose MicroStation Conversion?

If you use MicroStation or receive drawings created in that software, converting them into a format compatible with other platforms (or vice versa) is a smart move. With our MicroStation conversion service, you benefit from:

  • Seamless CAD format conversion, for example, from DGN to DWG or DXF and back.
    Preservation of important elements like layers, text, dimensions, and blocks.

  • Efficient workflows for multi-file or batch projects, saving you time and cost.

  • A partner who understands the technical demands of engineering, civil, structural, mechanical or architectural drafting.

What Our MicroStation Conversion Service Includes

Our conversion process covers a full range of tasks. When you hand over your original MicroStation files (or other CAD formats), our dedicated team takes care of:

  • File validation: We check the input data quality before conversion begins.

  • Layer & attribute handling: Text is separated onto proper layers, dimensions stay intact, blocks and standard components are maintained.

  • Multi-format support: Whether your drawings are in MicroStation’s DGN format or you need DWG/DXF output, we accommodate your requirements.
    Batch conversion services: Got dozens or hundreds of drawings? We scale up to handle large jobs without compromising accuracy.

  • Quality checks: At every stage, we carry out checks to ensure the output meets your standards.

Advantages for Your Project

By relying on our MicroStation conversion, you’ll enjoy real benefits:

  • Improved compatibility: Converting MicroStation files into widely used formats like DWG or DXF opens up collaboration with teams using different CAD software.

  • Time savings: Avoid redrawing from scratch—our process converts existing data efficiently so you can focus on design, not rework.

  • Cost control: When files are converted accurately and quickly, you lower the risk of extra hours spent on correction or conversion delays.

  • Standardisation: By converting drawings into consistent formats with standard layers and entities, your project data becomes easier to manage and share.
    Future-proofing: Whether you’re archiving drawings or preparing documentation for different systems, converted CAD files help maintain your project’s integrity over time.

Industries We Serve

Our MicroStation conversion services are well-suited across many sectors:

  • Architectural & civil: Plans, site layouts, elevations and as-built drawings converted for seamless review and collaboration.

  • Mechanical & structural: CAD files from machine shops, fabrication plants or construction projects brought into editable formats.

  • Electrical & utilities: Single-line diagrams, schematics, equipment layouts — all handled with care during conversion.
    Mining, oil & gas, infrastructure: Complex drawings from large projects converted between systems for better data exchange and integration.

How to Get Started

Ready to convert your MicroStation files? Here’s how we make it simple:

  1. Send us your drawings (DGN, DWG, DXF, or other formats) along with any layering, block, or drafting standards you use.

  2. We review the files and provide a clear quote and turnaround estimate.

  3. Our team executes the conversion process, with continual checks on layer integrity, text recognition, dimension accuracy, and formatting.

  4. You receive the converted drawings in your required format, ready for use in your design, drafting, or project workflows.

  5. Need support? We’re here for follow-up tweaks or modifications to ensure the drawings meet your final needs.

Why Work With Us?

We combine deep CAD conversion experience with a client-focused process. Our team understands how important drawing accuracy and clarity are to your project’s success. From initial upload to final delivery, we keep the workflow smooth, the file handling professional and the result ready to plug into your design or construction project.
