3D Workflow

From picture to 3D model

Need a 3D STEP from a flat PNM image? reaConverter vectorizes it, extrudes the shapes to the height you set, and works through a whole folder at once.

  • Each image is vectorized first, then extruded to the height you set in millimetres
  • Works best with logos, signs and line art: a photo has no clean outlines to follow
  • Apply the same height and tracing settings to every image in the batch

reaConverter has been a huge time-saver for our team. We regularly work with CAD models in STEP format, and converting them to images or other file types used to be a hassle. With reaConverter, the process is fast, accurate, and incredibly easy to set up. The batch conversion feature is especially useful when handling large projects. Highly recommended for anyone dealing with STEP files on a regular basis.

Security was our top concern when evaluating file conversion tools. reaConverter’s offline mode and role-based access controls let us lock it down for sensitive environments. No unexpected network calls or bloat — just clean, fast conversions. Even passed our pen-testing scans without a hitch.
