Standard for the Exchange of Product Model (.stp)

The STP file extension stands for "Standard for the Exchange of Product Model" (STEP) and is used for 3D CAD files. Developed by the ISO in 1984, this format facilitates the exchange of digital models between different CAD systems, enhancing interoperability and collaboration in engineering and manufacturing. STP files store 3D object data in a text format that includes geometric and functional product information, supporting various stages of Product Lifecycle Management (PLM). They are widely adopted in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and industrial design for sharing complex 3D models.

Stereolithography File (.stl)

STL, short for Stereolithography, is a widely used file format in the realm of 3D printing and computer-aided design (CAD). Introduced by 3D Systems in 1987, it represents the surfaces of a 3D object through a collection of triangles, facilitating precise and efficient model creation. Utilized across various industries such as engineering, manufacturing, and healthcare, STL files are critical for prototyping and producing complex geometries. Their simplicity and compatibility with numerous software applications have cemented STL's importance in the digital fabrication landscape.
