FAQ
PRT to STL Conversion
What are PRT files?
PRT is a file extension used by several unrelated formats. Most often it is a part file of a CAD program, a drawing or a 3D model of one component, created in Siemens NX, CADKEY, MegaCAD, or ProCAD. It can also be a print file with commands for a printer or plotter, or a raster picture in CMYK colors prepared for printing. Programs from different developers cannot open each other's PRT files, so it is important to know which program created the file.
What are STL files?
STL is the proprietary format for a computer-aided design (CAD) program developed by 3D Systems. STL is an acronym for Stereolitography, which is a type of technology used for creating prototypes or patterns through 3D printing. An STL file contains a surface representation of such a model, without detailed specifications of aspects such as colours. STL files can only be opened with a limited number of programs.
