Convert OBJ to MODEL

What is OBJ file?

The OBJ (OBJ) file extension is used for an ASCII-based file format for 3D geometric models that was developed by Wavefront Technologies. It is one of the oldest and most commonly used 3D file formats today and has been adopted by various digital content creation, visualization, and animation software programs. The OBJ file format stores 3D object data in a plain text format, making it both simple to create and edit and relatively lightweight compared to other 3D file formats. [ ⏩ ] OBJ file extension

What is MODEL file?

MODEL (CAT) is a three-dimensional CAD model file developed and created by Dassault Systemes, which is used in various industries including aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing. This CAD file can be successfully opened and edited by either CATIA, SolidWorks, HDR Express or the KUBot 3D Viewer. The main purpose of a MODEL file is to store objects in three-dimensional form.

How to convert the file from OBJ to MODEL?

To successfully convert the OBJ file to MODEL, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.OBJ). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case MODEL (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than MODEL).

What is a file conversion?

A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. OBJ to MODEL. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.

Program for converting OBJ files to MODEL files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension MODEL, while before this step we had the OBJ file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new MODEL file, or not.
