Solidworks conversion 2009+ -> 2008 or less

Hi,

We have a mentor that is proficient in solidworks and we are trying to use it to draw up our robot. Unfortunately many of the parts that we are trying to use are available in solidworks 2009+ only and we only have 2008.

Specifically if it’s possible to just save out the 10-10 profile from 80/20 inc to solidworks 2008 that would be a big help to us.

Here’s a link:

The other formats don’t seem to have the correct “extrusion” type of formatting.

Thanks very much in advance.

FIRST CAD Library has a lot of extrusion profiles under the Extrusion link on the left pane; you should be able to import the STEP part into SolidWorks without any problems.
