You can use our STP to BLEND conversion tool to quickly and easily convert your 3D model files for free. You may upload up to 20 files at one time, and our batch STP to BLEND converter will process each 3D model and present you with a download link for each file once completed.
Or drag and drop your files here to upload.
A maximum of 20 files can be uploaded at once.
Our 3D model STP to BLEND tool will load your STP file and, where supported, attempt to extract all the relevant 3D features, such as geometry, textures, and animations. To access the 3D conversion configuration options, click the button when you have selected your files. The current options support the ability to voxelize your 3D model and more.
Here are two simple steps to convert your STP to BLEND using our fast and free STP converter tool.
First, click the "Upload..." button and select your STP file to upload. Your STP file will be uploaded to our servers. When the STP to BLEND conversion has completed, you can download your BLEND file right away.
We aim to process all STP to BLEND conversions as quickly as possible; this usually takes around 5 seconds; however, this can be longer for certain files, so please be patient.
We aim to provide the best conversion experience. Our tools are under constant review and development, with new features being added every week.
In order to successfully convert an STP formatted file to the BLEND 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.
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 BLEND converters have been hand-optimized for speed making our STP converters the fastest available.
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 BLEND file format. Part of this process ensures checking the capabilities of the BLEND format and removing any data that cannot be represented.
At this point, the STP to Blender conversion tool will have the 3D model in a state that is ready to be transferred to the Blender BLEND format. Our tool creates the BLEND file, ensuring all the model data is present and is formatted to match the BLEND file specification to ensure the file can be opened in Blender and other editors that are capable of editing BLEND files.

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 modelling 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 modelling 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 BLEND file extension is the native 3D modelling file format of the ever-popular Blender 3D modelling software. The Blender format originally came into existence in late 1994 and has since evolved into the advanced 3D format we have today.
The format stores complex 3D mesh data along with textures, animations, lighting, and other information related to 3D scene rendering. The format is popular among those creating 3D videogame graphics and animation sequences due to its advanced features and ease of use.
Along with Blender, BLEND files can also be imported into other popular 3D editing software. The open-source nature of the format allows third-party plugins and scripts to be created to run within the Blender editing environment and extend the format's capabilities.
BLEND Converter Capabilities
When converting your STP to BLEND, our tool will attempt to accurately convert any colour or material information.
Your STP file will be converted to a BLEND 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 BLEND support colour material information, our tool will also attempt to convert the colour information.
