We aim to provide the best conversion experience. Our tools are under constant review and development, with new features being added every week.

How does converting STP to WRL work?

In order to successfully convert an STP formatted file to the WRL format, our converter tools will perform several initial checks to ensure the file provided is indeed an STP file. There are many files out there where the file type extension does not match the data contained within the file. Along with these file type checks, our tools will do additional checks to ensure the file is correctly formatted to match the provided file type. There are many tools out there that do not always create STP files to the exact specification.

Take your STP file

The STP file format is a text-based format, meaning its contents are human-readable, making STP files straightforward to edit in simple text editors. Within this text-based format are the core elements that make up the 3D model, including points, lines, edges, faces, and more. To ensure efficient conversions, our tool will check all data that is contained within the STP file and remove any information that is duplicated. STP files are notoriously slow to process, even on high-end computer systems, which is why our STP to WRL converters have been hand-optimized for speed making our STP converters the fastest available.

Convert the data from STP to WRL

Now that the data from the STP file has been processed, our tool can apply any conversion specified options, such as enabling Voxel mode, and with these applied, prepare the data to be converted to the final WRL file format. Part of this process ensures checking the capabilities of the WRL format and removing any data that cannot be represented.

Save to the WRL format

At this point, the STP to WRL conversion tool will have the 3D model in a state that is ready to be transferred to the WRL format. Our tool creates the WRL file, ensuring all the model data is present and is formatted to match the WRL file specification to ensure the file opens in compatible WRL file editors.

STP files are a 3D file format used to store complex 3D object definitions in a standard format to facilitate data transfer between compatible 3D modeling and CAD (Computer Aided Design) applications. In addition to storing 3D object data, the STP format can store additional information such as materials, tolerances, and other relevant data.

The STP format was first released in the early 1990's, has become a standard for 3D object storage, and is used in automotive, electronics, and other industries. STP files can be opened in most modern CAD applications and can be imported into many 3D modeling applications too.

The file content is ASCII text-based and conforms to the ISO-10303-21 standard. The 3D object contained within the STP file is described using a combination of points, lines, and edges. Due to the format being ASCII text, complex objects can lead to large file sizes. In addition to large file sizes, some complex STP files can take a long time to open within editing applications, even on a high-spec, modern computer.

The WRL (or VRML) file format is used to store 3D models and their environments in a simple-to-edit, plain text format. The WRL format has been around since the 1990s and has gained widespread support as a convenient 3D graphics format.

The 3D data is stored within the file in a hierarchical format, allowing 3D objects to be grouped and manipulated together. The format also allows 3D objects to be assigned unique IDs, allowing them to be referenced elsewhere in the same document, allowing the same 3D model to be used multiple times while only defining its vertices, faces, and other 3D data once.

While the format still enjoys support within many 3D editing applications, the WRL format has been officially superseded by the XML-based X3D format, which comes with more features and, with its use of the standard XML format, more support amongst 3D modeling applications.

WRL Converter Capabilities

When converting your STP to WRL, our tool will attempt to accurately convert any color or material information.

Information for converting from STP to WRL

Your STP file will be converted to a WRL file using our unified 3D model and mesh conversion tool. Our STP 3D tool performs accurate conversions of 3D elements such as vertices, faces, normals, and relevant material information. As both STP and WRL support color material information, our tool will also attempt to convert the color information.
