Here we detail how to convert your SLDPRT file to an GLB file using the export options found within the SolidWorks application. Currently, our converters cannot convert directly from SLDPRT to GLB. However, using the built-in export functions of SolidWorks, we can achieve the conversion.
Firstly, you will need to load your SLDPRT file into SolidWorks and select the export to STEP option. Once you have your file in the STEP format, you can use our STEP to GLB converter to complete the conversion process.
Here are two simple steps to convert your SLDPRT to GLB.
| Extension | SLDPRT |
| Full Name | SolidWorks |
| Type | CAD |
| Mime Type | application/octet-stream |
| Format | Binary |
| Tools | SLDPRT Converters |
The SLDPRT format is the native file format for the SolidWorks CAD application. The development of SolidWorks began in the mid-1990s by Jon Hirschtick and continues to this day.
The file format itself is a proprietary binary format representing the CAD design and all its associated components, which can be exported to many different formats, such as STL and STEP. Applications that can open SLDPRT files are currently limited to the SolidWorks application.
| Extension | GLB |
| Full Name | Graphics Language Transmission Format |
| Type | 3D Model |
| Mime Type | model/gltf-binary |
| Format | Binary |
| Tools | GLB Converters, 3D Model Voxelizer, Create GLB Animation, GLB Asset Extractor, Text to GLB, GLB Viewer |
| Open With | Blender, MeshLab |
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 modeling applications such as Blender and MeshLab. The GLB format is an open standard that is maintained by the Khronos Group.
If your original model file contains texture images and other texture-related data, these will be included in the final GLB file.
We aim to process all SLDPRT to GLB 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 SLDPRT file you submit to us. The resulting GLB 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 SLDPRT 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 GLB file quickly.
Yes! Our SLDPRT to GLB 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 SLDPRT 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 SLDPRT to GLB, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
