What to expect

  • .stp and .step are two extensions for the same ISO 10303 format - use whichever the receiving software expects.
  • Solid geometry (B-rep surfaces and edges) is preserved exactly, but assembly structure, materials, and metadata usually do not carry over.
  • SAT files embed an ACIS version number that older software may reject; converting to STP removes that compatibility dependency entirely.

Frequently asked questions

Is .stp the same as .step?
Yes - both extensions refer to the ISO 10303 STEP format; the file content is identical, only the extension differs.
Will the converted STP open in SolidWorks, CATIA, or Creo?
Yes - STEP is the standard neutral CAD exchange format accepted by all major applications.
Is geometry quality lost when converting SAT to STP?
No - both formats store exact mathematical B-rep geometry, so surfaces and edges are preserved precisely, unlike mesh formats such as STL.
What if my SAT file gives a version error in other software?
SAT embeds an ACIS version number that older tools may reject; exporting to STP removes that dependency since STEP has no such versioning issue.
