Our free and fast tool will convert most IGS (Initial Graphics Exchange Specification) CAD files to a standard ABC (Alembic) 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 IGS files; up to 25 files at a time can be converted.
To convert your IGS file, click the Upload button above and select the file to convert. Once selected, the file will be converted to a ABC file and will be ready for download shortly afterwards. For more information about the IGS to ABC conversion process, see the conversion information section below.

IGS 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. IGS files can be opened with many modern CAD applications, such as FreeCAD.

The ABC (Alembic) file format is a graphics format containing 3D content that was originally developed by Sony Pictures Imageworks and Industrial Light & Magic and released in 2011. The aim of the ABC format is to enable the efficient interchange of 3D assets between different working entities.
The format can contain a variety of 3D object formats, including polygon meshes, NURBS, parametric curves, and more. The files can be opened by many 3D graphics applications, including the popular open-source Blender application.
First click the "Upload..." button, select your IGS file to upload. Select any configuration options. When the IGS to ABC conversion has completed, you can download your ABC file straight away.
We aim to process all IGS to ABC 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 IGS file you submit to us. The resulting ABC 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 IGS 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 ABC file quickly.
Yes! Our IGS to ABC 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 IGS 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 IGS to ABC, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
