Can I convert IGES to STL in bulk for free?

Yes. Free users can batch-convert multiple files. Simply drag all your IGES files into the converter at once. PRO users get higher batch limits and priority processing.

What's the difference between IGES and STL?

IGES Exchange is initial graphics exchange specification for cad data sharing. STL 3D Mesh is stereolithography format — the universal standard for 3d printing. Key difference: IGES Exchange excels at early CAD interchange standard with wide legacy support, while STL 3D Mesh offers accepted by every 3D printer and slicing software worldwide.

How does the IGES to STL conversion work technically?

Xonvert uses WebAssembly-compiled libraries to decode your IGES file in-browser, process the cad data, and re-encode it as STL. All processing happens on your device's CPU.

What happens to my files after conversion?

Nothing — your files exist only in your browser's memory during conversion. Once you close the page, all data is cleared. No files are stored anywhere.

IGES Exchange is Initial Graphics Exchange Specification for CAD data sharing. It is primarily used for legacy CAD exchange and older engineering data migration. ASCII-based format originally developed by NIST and DoD

Will the conversion strip my EXIF or metadata?

Xonvert preserves metadata (EXIF, XMP, ID3, etc.) when the target STL format supports it. You can optionally strip metadata in the settings for smaller, cleaner output files.

Does the conversion preserve metadata?

Xonvert preserves compatible metadata fields when converting between formats. Some format-specific metadata may not carry over if the target format doesn't support it.
