OBJ What is an OBJ File? (Alias Wavefront Object Explained)

The OBJ file format is a widely used open standard for storing and exchanging 3D geometry, originally developed by Wavefront Technologies. Unlike binary formats, OBJ files use a human-readable text format, making them highly compatible across 3D modeling, animation, and rendering software.

Key Features and Benefits of OBJ Files

  • Multiple Named Objects: OBJ files can contain multiple 3D objects within a single file, each organized with individual names, ideal for complex 3D scenes and asset management.
  • Surface Materials and Textures: OBJ files support detailed surface definitions, including transparent materials and texture mapping, enabling realistic 3D model rendering.
  • Quad and Triangle Support: Geometry in OBJ files can include both quads and triangles. During OBJ file conversion, quads are automatically divided into triangles to ensure compatibility with applications that only support triangular meshes.
  • File Size Considerations: As a text-based format, OBJ files tend to be larger than binary formats like SKP or 3DS, which can impact loading speeds and storage requirements for complex models.

For AutoCAD users, our Automesher Application enables direct import and export of OBJ files within your CAD environment, ensuring seamless integration with your workflow.


SAT SAT File – Standard ACIS Text Format (.sat)

SAT files are ASCII-based 3D modeling files created using the ACIS geometric modeling kernel, developed by Spatial. Widely used in CAD applications, SAT (Standard ACIS Text) files store exact geometry and parametric data for solid modeling. This format enables accurate data exchange between leading CAD software such as AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Fusion 360, and Revit.

Key Features of SAT Files

  • High-Precision Geometry: Encodes accurate B-Rep (Boundary Representation) data using NURBS surfaces and curves.
  • CAD Interoperability: Supports seamless cross-platform exchange between AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Rhino, Revit, and other CAD tools.
  • Feature-Rich Modeling: Retains advanced design elements like fillets, lofts, extrusions, blends, and Boolean operations.
  • Readable Format: Human-readable ASCII text file that simplifies debugging and version control in collaborative workflows.

Convert to and from SAT Files

Using our powerful Autoconverter software, you can easily convert SAT files from popular 3D formats like STEP, IGES, STL, OBJ, and more. Whether you are preparing models for precision CAD editing or transforming mesh-based data into solid geometry, our SAT converter ensures reliable, high-quality results across platforms.
