Convert Your 3D Mesh/Model GLB Files to OBJ

Our free and fast tool will convert most 3D mesh or GLB (Graphics Language Transmission Format) model files to a standard OBJ (Wavefront) file that can then be edited further in most popular 3D editing packages such as Blender or 3D printed without any further processing.

To convert your GLB file click the Upload button above and select the file to convert. Once selected, the file will be converted to a OBJ file and will ready for download shortly afterwards. For more information about the GLB to OBJ conversion process see the conversion information section below for more information.

FAQ

How can I convert my GLB file to OBJ?

First click the "Upload..." button, select your GLB file to upload. Select any configuration options. When the GLB to OBJ conversion has completed, you can download your OBJ file straight away.

How long does it take to convert my GLB to OBJ?

We aim to process all GLB to OBJ conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds but can be more for larger more complex files so please be patient.

How accurate is the GLB to OBJ conversion?

We aim to create the most accurate conversions with our tools. Our tools are under constant development with new features and improvements being added every week.

Is it safe to convert my GLB to OBJ on ImageToStl.com?

Yes, of course! We do not store the GLB file you submit to us. The resulting OBJ file, once created is deleted 15 minutes after upload and the download link will expire after this time.

Can I convert GLB to OBJ on Windows, Linux, Android, iOS or Mac OS?

Yes! Our GLB to OBJ tool will run on any system with a modern web browser. No specialist software is needed to run any of our conversion tools.

What if I am using an Ad Blocker, will that affect things?

Yes. Although you can use an Ad Blocker, if you like our GLB conversion tool please consider white-listing our site. When an Ad Blocker is enabled there are some conversion limits on some of our tools and processing/conversion times will be longer.

File format information for GLB to OBJ

ExtensionGLB
Full NameGraphics Language Transmission Format
Type3D Model
Mime Typemodel/gltf-binary
FormatBinary
Open WithBlender, MeshLab

Description

The GLB file format which can also have the GLTF file extension depending on whether the content is binary or text/Json is a 3D file format used to describe 3D worlds and as such contains geometric data such as vertices, faces, normals, animations and other 3D scene related data.

The format, described by its creators as the "JPEG of 3D", has gained in popularity and is supported by a wide range of 3D modelling applications such as Blender and MeshLab. The GLB format is an open standard which is maintained by the Khronos Group.

GLB Notes

If your GLB file contains textures, these will be ignored. If a material contains color information this will be translated where possible.

Supported Features

  • V2.0 and above files only
  • Mesh geometry
  • Mesh material colors

Unsupported Features

  • Textures
  • Animations
ExtensionOBJ
Full NameWavefront
Type3D Model
Mime Typetext/plain

Open WithMeshLab, CAD Assistant, DAZ Studio

Description

The OBJ file format originally created by Wavefront Technologies and later adopted by many other 3D software vendors is a simple text-based file format for describing 3D model/geometry. This data can include Vertices, Faces, Normals, Texture Coordinates and references to external Texture files.

As the format is text-based it is relatively straight-forward to parse by 3D modelling applications. A downside of the text-based format is the files can be rather large compared to similar binary formats such as STL and compressed files such as 3MF.

OBJ Notes

Our tool does not currently support saving material or color information for OBJ files.

Supported Features

  • Mesh geometry

Unsupported Features

  • Textures
  • Material colors
