Turn an STP CAD model into a 3MF mesh. Curved surfaces are meshed finely enough to stay smooth, and the part keeps its real size and orientation.

What is STP?
STEP stores exact CAD geometry: true planes, cylinders, cones and freeform surfaces joined into solids. It is the standard way to move parts between CAD systems such as SolidWorks, Fusion 360, Inventor, CATIA and FreeCAD.

ISO 10303 (Standard for the Exchange of Product Data)
3MF is the modern 3D printing format from the 3MF Consortium. Unlike STL it records units, colours and multiple objects in one compressed file, and it is the native project format of Bambu Studio and PrusaSlicer.

STP stores exact surfaces; 3MF needs triangles. We mesh each surface with a deviation of 0.05% of the part's size, which keeps holes and fillets smooth for printing and rendering.
Dimensions stay in the units of the original file, usually millimetres.
