OBJ to SAT
Please find below the list of our other useful resources related to OBJ and SAT interoperability and exchange that could help you with the OBJ to SAT conversion.
OBJ File
OBJ (Alias Wavefront Object) is a text-based file format for 3D geometry objects which is very popular and widely supported by many 3D software programs. The OBJ file format is capable of storing named group objects, surface materials with transparent colors and texture images, and quads or triangles as geometry primitives. However, our Autoconverter software will simplify every OBJ quad primitive with two triangles as only triangular facets are supported during the OBJ file conversion. It's important to mention that due to a textual format OBJ files will always be much bigger than the binary files, e.g. 3DS (3D Studio) or SKP (SketchUp).
SAT ACIS File
SAT (Standard ACIS Text) is an ASCII file format to store 3D model geometry that precisely describes the real objects, developed and maintained up till now by the Spatial company. The SAT file format is supported by the majority of 3D modeling and CAD software and can be used to successfully exchange 3D data between different systems, e.g. AutoCAD & Solidworks. Our Autoconverter and Automesher Application software allow you to convert mesh based geometry to a true solid shape saved in the SAT file.
