Yes, there are some versions of SketchUp model shapes, that you can import. I know it is difficult to read a manual or to use search tool of a forum. But please do it! If you run then into a problem, then you can ask a detailed question.

Jory, Thanks for your reply. I'm doing it for my final year thesis. If using SketchUp to build the 3D model, then import into Flexsim to conduct simulation, I think of several problems may encounter. Does the file size matter? Like if the file size exceeds certain GB, it cant import to Flexsim. Any limitations on import SketchUp into Flexsim? Thank you so much

Potential technical limitations aside, you'd probably want to avoid using a multi-gigabyte 3D model for real time rendering in any software, FlexSim included.
