Our free and fast tool will convert your 3D PCD (Point Cloud Library) model files to a standard SKP (SketchUp) file that can then be edited further in most popular 3D editing packages or 3D printed without any further processing. Our conversion tool can also batch convert multiple PCD files; up to 200 files at a time can be converted.
To convert your PCD file, click the Upload button above and select the file to convert. Once selected, the file will be converted to a SKP file and will be ready for download shortly afterwards. For more information about the PCD to SKP conversion process, see the conversion information section below.

PCD files are a Point Cloud 3D format created to enable high-speed loading and saving of Point Cloud data to either a text-based format or a compressed binary format.
The format can be either text-based or binary. In the text format, point coordinates are stored on a single line with an option color value. The file contains a header section that defines the data fields that are present in both text and binary formats.

The SKP 3D file format is the native file format used by SketchUp. The SketchUp application, which was released back in 2000 and is still going strong today, allows users to create detailed 3D graphics models.
SketchUp is popular amongst architectural designers, game developers, and other professionals and hobbyist users. The SKP format can be opened with the SketchUp application.
Any model converted to the SKP format will be stored in a triangulated mesh format.
Many 3D file conversion websites use the same off-the-shelf components to convert files, these often lack features and full PCD file compatibility. Our bespoke file conversion tools offer full PCD file compatibility and have been developed in-house by a team of developers, some of whom have over 30 years of experience working with 3D graphics file formats, meaning our tools will convert your PCD file quickly and accurately with maximum compatibility.
Yes! Our PCD tool supports full batch conversions. You can upload up to 200 PCD files at a time. Our tool will convert them all as quickly as possible. Once completed, you can either download the SKP files individually or download them all in a single ZIP file.
First click the "Upload..." button, and select your PCD file to upload. You can also drag and drop your file onto the tool. Once your file is selected, you can set any configuration options. When the PCD to SKP conversion has completed, you can download your SKP file straight away.
We aim to process all PCD to SKP 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 PCD file you submit to us. The resulting SKP file, once created, is stored for 4 hours after upload; after this time it is deleted, and the short-term download link will stop working. You can create a long-term download Url with most tools that will ensure the file is retained for 24 hours, allowing you to download the file when convenient. Our tools also come with a Delete button, allowing you to delete the file immediately.
No. All our conversion tools process your PCD 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 SKP file quickly.
Yes! Our PCD to SKP 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 PCD conversion tool please consider white-listing our website. When an Ad Blocker is enabled there are some conversion limits and some settings may not be available when using our tools. Processing/conversion and download times will also be longer.
Yes. When you have converted your PCD to SKP, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
