STP (STP) - STEP AP203/AP214 - ISO 10303 standard for parametric 3D CAD exchange (alternative .step extension). Best for cad data exchange, engineering part models, manufacturing data transfer.
IGS (IGS) - IGES - Initial Graphics Exchange Specification (alternative .iges extension). Ideal for legacy cad data migration, aerospace engineering drawings.
Yes, GoConvertFile offers free conversion of STP to IGS for files up to 100MB. No registration required.
Most STP to IGS conversions complete within seconds for standard-sized files. Larger files may take longer depending on the conversion complexity.
IGS is ideal for legacy cad data migration, aerospace engineering drawings. IGES - Initial Graphics Exchange Specification (alternative .iges extension)
Yes, converting STP to IGS uses lossy compression, which reduces file size by discarding some visual data. Set quality to 85-95% for a good balance of quality and file size.
IGS files are typically 50-80% smaller than STP files because IGS uses efficient lossy compression. The exact reduction depends on quality settings.
STEP AP203/AP214 — stored as model/step — uses lossless encoding to handle cad data exchange, engineering part models, manufacturing data transfer. Typical file sizes: varies by content.
IGS files are built around lossy compression. Designed for legacy cad data migration, aerospace engineering drawings, they use the model/iges MIME type and typically range from varies by content.
Reach for STP when your priority is cad data exchange, engineering part models, manufacturing data transfer — its uncompromising quality ensures every detail is preserved.
Reach for IGS when your priority is legacy cad data migration, aerospace engineering drawings — its efficient compression makes sharing fast and storage minimal.
