Here are 3 simple steps to convert your STL file using our fast and free STL file converter tool.
Extension | STL |
Full Name | Standard Triangle Language |
Type | 3D Model |
Mime Type | application/vnd.ms-pki.stl |
Format | Text |
Opens With | Blender, MeshLab, CAD Assistant, DAZ Studio |
The STL file format has its roots in the 1980's and is the native file format for 3D Systems stereolithography CAD software. The format defines a triangulated mesh with vertices and faces and is a popular format for sharing 3D printable model files.
There were several formats that attempted to extend the STL format namely SolidView and VisCAM whose formats included limited 15-bit color information for each mesh face which is often ignored by most modern 3D software. The STL format can be either Text or Binary, our tools will support both formats.
STL Converter Capabilities
Our STL converter can both convert from and to STL files and our developers are working to improve our STL conversion tools in future versions.When converting 3D Model/Mesh files using our [ey] converter we will attempt to convert color materials into a suitable format for use in the converted file.
Our STL conversion tool can convert most 3D geometry including mesh vertices and faces with no loss of detail. Any color materials contained within the 3D model file will be converted where possible.
No, due to the different methods of assigning textures to a 3D model textures are not currently supported. If your STL model contains textures or references to external texture files, these will be ignored.
Yes! Our STL conversion tools are 100% free to use.
No, you can convert as many files as you wish. We do not impose any conversion limits on our STL conversion tools.
We aim to process all STL conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds however this can be longer for certain files and significantly longer for some larger file formats, so please be patient.
Once your STL file has been uploaded and we know the file format you wish to convert it to our bespoke conversion software will convert your STL and make it available for you to download with a unique download Url.
Yes, of course it is! Your STL, once converted is deleted 1 hour after upload and the download link will expire after this time.
Yes! Our STL conversion tools will run on any system with a modern web browser.
