Free Online VOX to STL Converter

The VOX file format is a 3D format designed for the storage of Voxel-styled 3D graphics. Voxels, or volumetric pixels, made famous by the popular videogame Minecraft, are the 3D equivalent of a 2D bitmap pixel.

Individual voxels are stored within the VOX file and, when combined, can form complex 3D objects. The information stored will include the 3D coordinate of each voxel, along with other display properties and metadata.

VOX files can be opened with specialist 3D viewing software, or you can use our range of VOX file converters to process VOX files into other 3D formats, such as OBJ.

When converting 3D model or mesh files using our VOX converter, we will attempt to convert color materials into a suitable format for use in the converted file.

The STL, or Standard Triangle Language, file format has been around since the '80s and is supported by most modern 3D modeling applications. In particular, the STL format has become something of a standard format within the area of 3D printing, despite the rise of more modern formats such as 3MF.

STL files come in two flavors: binary or text format. The text format is human-readable, making it easy to perform manual edits, but can lead to very large file sizes. As you can imagine, the binary format is much more compact and represents the majority of the STL files you are likely to encounter.

The format itself is very simple; the 3D model is represented by a sequential list of triangles, with each triangle defined with 3 points consisting of their X, Y, and Z positions, along with an additional vector that contains the face normal (the direction the face is pointing). There is an additional attribute block for each triangle; however, this is largely unused and thus unsupported.
