How to Use STL Viewer

Upload Your STL File

Click the "Upload File" button and select your STL file from your computer. Files up to 100 MB are supported — perfect for complex STL models from CAD software and 3D printing workflows.

STL Processing & Rendering

Your STL file will be parsed and rendered with our optimized STL engine. Most files load within seconds, though larger STL models may take longer.

Explore Your STL Model

Use your mouse or touch controls to interact with the rendered STL geometry and examine it from every angle.

Model Controls

Once your STL file loads, you can interact with it using these intuitive controls optimized for STL geometry inspection:

🔄 Rotate STL Model

Mouse: Click and drag to rotate the STL model in any direction
Touch: Use one finger to drag and rotate on mobile devices

🔍 Zoom In/Out

Mouse: Use scroll wheel to zoom in and out for detailed STL inspection
Touch: Pinch with two fingers to zoom on mobile devices
