STEP is the standard exchange format for CAD models from SolidWorks, Fusion 360, Onshape and FreeCAD. Slicers need a triangle mesh instead. This converter tessellates the CAD solid with OpenCASCADE and saves it as STL in millimetres, ready for Cura, PrusaSlicer or Bambu Studio.

Why convert STEP to STL?

  • 3D print parts designed in CAD or downloaded from supplier catalogues
  • Open CAD models in mesh tools like Blender or Meshmixer
  • Share a part with someone who has no CAD software

What to know

  • Curved surfaces are approximated with triangles, so very fine curves may look faceted.
  • Both .step and .stp files are accepted. Assemblies are merged into one mesh.
