What is a IGS file?
IGS is the commonly used file extension for IGES files. It contains the same data structure used in engineering and CAD applications for transferring detailed geometric designs across platforms.
IGS files can store information about curves, surfaces, and 3D solids, and are accepted by a wide range of CAD systems, especially for interoperability between older software packages.
How to open IGS files
IGS files are interchangeable with IGES and can be opened using the same software, including Fusion 360, CATIA, and other professional CAD platforms.
Use AnyConv to convert IGS files to STEP or STL if you need more universal compatibility with 3D printing or modeling tools.

What is a STL file?
STL (Stereolithography) is one of the most common 3D file formats used for 3D printing. It describes the surface geometry of a 3D object without including color, texture, or other attributes.
STL files are supported by virtually all 3D printers and modeling software. They are lightweight and easy to process, making them the go-to choice for rapid prototyping and additive manufacturing.
How to open STL files
STL files can be opened in most 3D modeling and slicing programs such as Blender, Cura, TinkerCAD, and Fusion 360. They are essential for 3D printing workflows.
Use AnyConv to convert STL files to formats like OBJ or STEP for further editing or integration with CAD systems.
