We just fixed downloads: every STL now comes straight from fast, reliable storage, saved under its own name, we're making 10,000 STL files and dozens of new tools, so things might break. We'll fix them ASAP.

STEP to PLY Converter StarForge 3D Modeling Software

Compare CAD Design With 3D Scans

Quality engineers who compare a 3D scan with the design model often work in CloudCompare or MeshLab, which read Stanford's Polygon File Format. The STEP to PLY Converter meshes an ISO 10303 STEP part into triangles and saves PLY in the browser, free, with no upload. The nominal CAD shape then sits beside scan data in a format both programs handle. Exact surfaces become facets during the change. For 3D printing, the part can also leave as a 3D Print STL File in StarForge 3D Modeling Software.
