Free Online GCODE to SKP Converter

Here is our free to use GCODE to SKP 3D model converter tool that will take your GCODE file and convert it to the SKP format ready for loading into your favourite 3D modeling package. Our 3D model converter supports batch processing of your files and can convert up to 20 GCODE files at one time.

Drag and drop your files here to upload or click the button above.
A maximum of 20 files can be converted at once.

Please note: Your GCODE file file, when uploaded to our server, will be deleted 15 minutes after upload. Please download your converted GCODE file file before this time.

The GCODE to SKP model conversion tool will analyse your GCODE file and convert its 3D mesh data including vertices, surfaces and where applicable vector normals and texture coordinates to the SKP format whilst maintaining the structural accuracy of your original GCODE 3D model file.

File information for GCODE and SKP

Full NameG-code
ExtensionGCODE
Type3D Model/Point Cloud
Mime Typetext/plain
FormatText

The GCODE format is a file format mainly associated with 3D printers and CNC machines. These files contain low-level instructions to control these machines; for example, in a 3D printer, these instructions move the print head, adjust the height of the print bed, and control the speed at which the plastic is extruded from the print head.

These GCODE files are created by Slicer software, which takes 3D model files, often in the STL or 3MF format, and converts these models into the low-level instructions present in the GCODE file.

GCODE Converter Capabilities

As the GCODE format currently does not support the use of material colors when used by tool, your converted model will contain only the mesh geometry, material colors will not be transferred to your converted file.

Mime Typeapplication/octet-stream
FormatBinary

A SKP file is the native file format used by the SketchUp 3D modeling application. The SketchUp application started out in 2000 and has been maintained with newer versions featuring improved features ever since.

Other than SketchUp itself, support for opening SKP files within other 3D model editors is limited. There is a C++ API to help developers integrate the format into their own code and build extensions for SketchUp.

Mesh Geometry

The SketchUp SKP format supports mesh geometry composed of vertices and faces. There is also support for texture coordinates and other advanced 3D content.

SKP Converter Capabilities

As the SKP format currently does not support the use of material colors in 3D models when created using our tool, your converted model will contain only the mesh geometry, material colors will not be transferred to your converted SKP file.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert my GCODE to SKP?

First, click the "Select File" button and choose your GCODE file. We will upload and convert your GCODE file. Once the conversion from GCODE to SKP completes, use the provided link to download your SKP file.

How long does it take to convert my GCODE file to SKP?

We aim to process all GCODE to SKP file conversions as soon as possible; this should take around 5 seconds; however, this may be longer for larger files.

Is the GCODE format suitable for 3D printing?

No. Most 3D printing slicer software will not support the GCODE format. It is recommended to convert your GCODE file to the STL format if you wish to 3D print it.
