Convert STEP file

STEP to SKP ......

Please find below the list of our other useful resources related to the STEP and SKP interoperability and exchange that can help you with the STEP to SKP conversion.


STP STEP File

STEP (STandardized Exchange of Product) is a very popular file format for the data 3D exchange between different computer systems e.g. CAD, CAM or CAE. As the STEP geometry data are stored in a text form you can expect bigger file sizes when exporting triangular meshes with thousands of faces using the Autoconverter software. However, if your geometry defines manifold solid it will try to create optimized faceted STEP brep representation which should reduce STEP file size by one-third. The STEP file format supports colors per assembly, but without the alpha component, therefore any transparency setting will be lost in the final STEP file.


SKP SKP SketchUp File

SKP (SketchUp) file format for a long period of time was maintained by Google, but currently it is actively developed by Trimble company. The SKP file allows to store reusable geometry component instances, named mesh groups and materials with texture images. It's important to note that the Win32 build is no longer available from the SKP file version 16 onwards. Therefore, it is recommended to use the Win64 build to convert the most recent SketchUp models. With the Autoconverter software you can save SKP files to any file version you require, from the early SKP version 3 to the recent 2022.
