OBJ Export for Inventor is a Wavefront OBJ file export add-in for Inventor®. This add-in gives Inventor the ability to export 3D solid and surface data from a Inventor part and assembly document to meshes in an OBJ file.
 

OBJ Export for Inventor tessellates the solid bodies in an Inventor part or assembly document into individual triangular meshes. These meshes are then exported to an OBJ file as mesh objects. The OBJ file can then be imported into a variety of CAD applications.
 

OBJ Export for Inventor is very easy to use. OBJ Import for Inventor adds new commands to Inventor. It also adds a ribbon bar to the Inventor user interface called "Add-Ins" containing these new commands.

The OBJ File Format

The OBJ file format is a geometry definition file format first developed by Wavefront Technologies for its Advanced Visualizer animation package. The file format is open and has been adopted by other 3D graphics application vendors, making it a universally accepted geometry file format. The OBJ file format is a simple data format that represents 3D geometry alone - namely, the position of each vertex, the texture coordinate associated with a vertex, the normal at each vertex, and the faces that make each polygon.
