An example is that the 2D profiles of aluminum extrusion are often provided in DXF format. These can be imported and extruded to create the length of extrusion that is needed in a design. * STEP files are useful for interchanging model data with other CAD and analysis systems, such as FreeCAD. Many parts such as screws have STEP files available, which can be imported and used in CadQuery assemblies.
