You can use our VOX to STL 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 VOX to STL 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 VOX to STL tool will load your VOX 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 VOX to STL using our fast and free VOX converter tool.
First, click the "Upload..." button and select your VOX file to upload. Your VOX file will be uploaded to our servers. When the VOX to STL conversion has completed, you can download your STL file right away.
We aim to process all VOX to STL 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 VOX formatted file to the STL format, our converter tools will perform several initial checks to ensure the file provided is indeed an VOX 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 VOX files to the exact specification.
An VOX file is a binary data file containing 3D data that makes up the 3D model, including vertices, faces, texture coordinates, and more. To guarantee efficient conversions, our tool will check all data that is contained within the VOX file and remove any information that is duplicated. This not only ensures the conversion completes more quickly, but also the generated STL file size is smaller.
Now that the data from the VOX 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 STL file format. Part of this process ensures checking the capabilities of the STL format and removing any data that cannot be represented.
At this point, the VOX to STL conversion tool will have the 3D model in a state that is ready to be transferred to the STL format. Our tool creates the STL file, ensuring all the model data is present and is formatted to match the STL file specification to ensure the file opens in compatible STL file editors. To ensure a compact file size, our VOX to STL converter will always save the STL file in a binary format.

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 colour 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 modelling 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 flavours: 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.
STL Converter Capabilities
When converting your VOX to STL, our tool will attempt to accurately convert any colour or material information.
Your VOX file will be converted to a STL file using our unified 3D model and mesh conversion tool. Our VOX 3D tool performs accurate conversions of 3D elements such as vertices, faces, normals, and relevant material information. As both VOX and STL support colour material information, our tool will also attempt to convert the colour information.
