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

The OpenSCAD file format, or SCAD, is the native file format of the popular free CAD software OpenSCAD used for creating 3D CAD models. The SCAD software is still in active development, with new features being added with each version.
SCAD files are text-based files containing scripts that allow the designer to describe the CAD model programmatically. SCAD files are then compiled to produce the final 3D render.
SCAD files, when imported, will be converted to 3D geometry comprising vertices and faces. If the SCAD file contains color information, this will be converted where possible.

The FBX format by AutoDesk was originally developed by Kaydara in the 1990s as a means to store 2D or 3D content with motion data. It has evolved over the years to become a widely used format by 3D modeling applications such as Blender, 3D Studio Max, and others due to its 3D animation capabilities.
The format is used to contain 3D models, which include vertices, faces, and other 3D geometry along with animation data. The format is proprietary; however, there is a publicly available API to use for development purposes. The file contents can be either text or binary, and work has been carried out by the Blender Foundation to document the format.
If your original model file contains texture images and other texture-related data, these will be included in the final FBX file.
First click the "Upload..." button, select your SCAD file to upload. Select any configuration options. When the SCAD to FBX conversion has completed, you can download your FBX file straight away.
We aim to process all SCAD to FBX 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 SCAD file you submit to us. The resulting FBX 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 SCAD 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 FBX file quickly.
Yes! Our SCAD to FBX 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 SCAD 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 SCAD to FBX, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
