Free Online SKP to 3MF Converter

Here is our free to use SKP to 3MF 3D model converter tool that will take your SKP file and convert it to the 3MF format ready for loading into your favourite 3D modeling package. Our 3D model converter supports batch processing of your files and can convert up to 20 SKP files at one time.

Drag and drop your files here to upload or click the button above.
A maximum of 20 files can be converted at once.

Please note: Your SKP file file, when uploaded to our server, will be deleted 15 minutes after upload. Please download your converted SKP file file before this time.

The SKP to 3MF model conversion tool will analyse your SKP file and convert its 3D mesh data including vertices, surfaces and where applicable vector normals and texture coordinates to the 3MF format whilst maintaining the structural accuracy of your original SKP 3D model file.

File information for SKP and 3MF

Full NameSketchUp
ExtensionSKP
Type3D Model
Mime Typeapplication/octet-stream
FormatBinary

A SKP file is the native file format used by the SketchUp 3D modeling application. The SketchUp application started out in 2000 and has been maintained with newer versions featuring improved features ever since.

Other than SketchUp itself, support for opening SKP files within other 3D model editors is limited. There is a C++ API to help developers integrate the format into their own code and build extensions for SketchUp.

Mesh Geometry

The SketchUp SKP format supports mesh geometry composed of vertices and faces. There is also support for texture coordinates and other advanced 3D content.

SKP Converter Capabilities

As materials containing color information is supported by the SKP format, our tool will do its best to include this in the converted file.

The primary purpose of the 3MF format is to store and transmit 3D models for 3D printing. The format is ideally suited to this due to its ability to store not only the 3D model but also additional metadata required for 3D printing an object, such as units of measurement, surface material characteristics, and more.

Mesh Geometry

The 3MF file format is a mesh-based format; more specifically, the mesh is stored as a series of triangles that, when combined, can represent any 3D object. The format can contain many 3D mesh objects in a single file.

3MF Converter Capabilities

As materials containing color information is supported by the SKP and 3MF formats, our tool will do its best to include this in the converted 3MF file.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert my SKP to 3MF?

First, click the "Select File" button and choose your SKP file. We will upload and convert your SKP file. Once the conversion from SKP to 3MF completes, use the provided link to download your 3MF file.

How long does it take to convert my SKP file to 3MF?

We aim to process all SKP to 3MF file conversions as soon as possible; this should take around 5 seconds; however, this may be longer for larger files.

Is the SKP format suitable for 3D printing?

No. Most 3D printing slicer software will not support the SKP format. It is recommended to convert your SKP file to the STL format if you wish to 3D print it.
