Convert STEP to MB

What is STEP file?

The STEP (.STP) file format is a widely-adopted 3D model standard used by major CAD programs and software packages, such as SOLIDWORKS, and the Autodesk® Inventor® suite. It is designed to accurately represent precise three-dimensional shapes of physical objects, which makes it an ideal format for the transfer and storage of designs between CAD applications and engineering systems.

What is MB file?

MB or .mb is an abbreviation for Maya Binary Project File. The MB File Extension is a 3D animation software developed by Autodesk, Maya. It is generally used to store various binary archives of Maya projects, such as meshes, surfaces, textures, cameras, lights, HDR images, and related information. MB Files may save complex 3D scenes built with polygons, fluids, dynamics objects, NURBS surface shapes, or other 3D animation tools like Maxon Cinema 4D. Maya itself can open these .

How to convert the file from STEP to MB?

To successfully convert the STEP file to MB, 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.STEP). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case MB (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 MB).

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. STEP to MB. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.

Program for converting STEP files to MB 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 MB, while before this step we had the STEP file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new MB file, or not.
