If you open the settings of the csv reader, you can set the datatype of the x and y attributes to x-coordinate and y-coordinate.

FME will automatically create a point geometry out of x and y in that case.

Then you can write the features with point geometry to a DWG writer.

Thank you for a quite clear answer; it seems simple, but as Im new to FME.... I'll try this path; it should resolve what I need.
