STEP to OBJ

Convert your STEP file to OBJ, right in the browser.

Model workspaceSTEP / STP → OBJ

Your model goes here.

Choose your file or try the original sample below. No installation or sign-up.

01 / HOW IT WORKS

Open, inspect, then use your result.

  1. 01

    Open your file

    Choose, drop or paste your STEP file. All three input methods use the same local checks.

  2. 02

    Look from every angle

    Orbit, zoom and switch between standard views. Read the dimensions and object count beside the model.

  3. 03

    Download the converted file

    After conversion, download OBJ + MTL (ZIP). Open the result in your destination software and check the units before use.

02 / TRY IT YOURSELF

A real file. A result you can check.

This original four-hole plate measures 80 × 50 × 8 mm. The sample uses the input format for this page. Use the default unit and axis settings to reproduce those dimensions.

Original public sample. Your uploads are never added to this gallery.

03 / FORMAT & USE

STEP to OBJ

Move a STEP solid model into a polygon modelling workflow. The imported preview mesh is exported as OBJ with a companion MTL file in a ZIP archive, using millimetres and Y up.

What this viewer supports

OBJ export uses the imported preview mesh, so curved faces are approximated. The MTL describes generated display materials; it does not restore STEP colours or the original feature tree.

STEP and STP solid models up to 32 MiB and 2,000 solids. The converted geometry must also fit a 16 MiB internal limit, so file size alone does not guarantee a model will open. Complex models may exceed the time or memory budget.

04 / QUESTIONS

Know your input. Understand your output.

Why is the OBJ download a ZIP file?

The archive keeps model.obj and model.mtl together. Extract both into the same folder, then import model.obj using millimetres and Y up.

Do I need an account or credits?

No. These tools are free and run in your browser. No account, subscription or credits are required.

Is my model uploaded?

No. Your selected file is read and processed in this browser. The page downloads its CAD engine and public samples, but does not upload your model. Refreshing or leaving the page clears the current file from the tool.

How are units and orientation handled?

The overall bounds come from the imported solid geometry and are shown in millimetres. They are not point-to-point measurements or drawing tolerances. If the declared units are unknown, check a known dimension before relying on the result.

Can I paste a file from my computer?

Copy a file in your file manager, then paste here. Your browser must expose the clipboard as a file; a copied path or text will not open a model.
