Our free and fast tool will convert most IGES (Initial Graphics Exchange Specification) CAD files to a standard BLEND (Blender) 3D model file that can then be edited further in most popular 3D editing packages such as Blender or 3D printed without any further processing. Our conversion tool can also batch convert multiple IGES files; up to 25 files at a time can be converted.
To convert your IGES file, click the Upload button above and select the file to convert. Once selected, the file will be converted to a BLEND file and will be ready for download shortly afterwards. For more information about the IGES to BLEND conversion process, see the conversion information section below.

IGES is an open file format used within CAD applications as a means of saving data in a format that can be opened and edited in other CAD applications. Its roots can be traced back to the mid-1970s, when it was used by the United States Air Force.
The format itself is a human-readable text-based format and contains data that can represent many different CAD elements, such as points, lines, arcs, and much more. IGES files can be opened with many modern CAD applications, such as FreeCAD.

The BLEND file type is the native 3D graphics file format of the 3D modeling application Blender. Originally released in 1994, Blender has grown over the years and is one of the most popular 3D applications available.
BLEND files store 3D content such as 3D geometry, vertices, faces, normals, animations, materials, and much more. Blender is free and open-source, contains many features you would expect in a high-end 3D editing application, and is available for most current operating systems.
If your original model file contains texture images and other texture-related data, these will be included in the final BLEND file.
Our tool will save all Blender files that can be opened with version 4.2 of Blender.
We aim to process all IGES to BLEND conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds but can be more for larger more complex files so please be patient.
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.
Yes, of course! We do not store the IGES file you submit to us. The resulting BLEND file, once created is deleted 15 minutes after upload and the download link will expire after this time.
No. All our conversion tools process your IGES file on our dedicated conversion servers, meaning you can use our tools on low-spec computers, laptops, tablets, and mobile devices and receive your converted BLEND file quickly.
Yes! Our IGES to BLEND tool will run on any system with a modern web browser. No specialist software is needed to run any of our conversion tools.
Yes. Although you can use an Ad Blocker, if you like our IGES 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.
Yes. When you have converted your IGES to BLEND, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
