Convert Stereolithography CAD data to AutoCAD drawing.
We have found 11 software records in our database eligible for .stl to .dwg file format conversion.
Almost every 3D modeling / CAD tool supports STL format nowadays, so stl to dwg conversion should be doable in pretty much anything. However, some programs only generate 2D view of the 3D model, perhaps from its slice or from sides. This means to every program may be suitable for your needs.

The tables with software actions are a good pointer for what a certain program does with various file types and often may give users a good hint how to perform certain file conversion, for example the above-mentioned stl to dwg. However, it is not perfect and sometimes can show results which are not really usable because of how certain programs work with files and the possible conversion is thus actually not possible at all.

STL
Files with stl extension can be mainly found as stereolithography files for 3D printers. Used in many CAD programs as output format for models and prototypes that could be printed in stereolithography devices.
DWG
A dwg file extension is used for common CAD file format, originally used by AutoCAD. A DWG is a proprietary format and can only be created in AutoCAD. Other CAD programs can usually import it, but not create its proprietary form. It's because of this, that DWGs are often exported to DXF interchange format, so they can be seamlessly used in other CAD programs.

Found 3 different conversion types using the same filename extensions.
It seems that drw to dwg conversion is typically related to attempts to transform vector data saved in one of the many known .drw files (vector drawings) to a .dwg file from AutoCAD.
It is likely that you can achieve this in several programs, but the success depends on the support for the particular type of .drw files you need to convert to DWG format.
