Format conversion
glTF to GLB — convert in your browser, free daily allowance
Turn glTF files into GLB without installing desktop software. Open the converter, drop your file, set the output options and download the result. Single files need no account.
Two-step conversion
source -> target
Step 1 — Source
glTF
Drop or select a file: gltf plus buffers and textures. The converter reads the content on your device.
Accepted input: gltf plus buffers and textures
Step 2 — Target
GLB
Set the output options, run the conversion and download the GLB file.
- Units
- Model units (mm, cm, in)
- Orientation
- Y-up for web, Z-up for CAD and CAM
- Quality
- Triangle count or simplification target
The options above are the ones this converter exposes. Defaults are safe for most files; change them when your downstream tool expects specific units or orientation.
What this conversion does
Input
glTF
glTF is a JSON-based 3D runtime format with external buffers and textures.
Output
GLB
GLB is the binary form of glTF, a compact runtime format for web, AR and game engines.
Use this converter when you have a glTF file and the next step needs GLB, for example web viewers, AR and game engines. The conversion is handled by a dedicated tool, so you do not have to install a desktop application to move a single file.
Limitations
- Conversions run in the browser and share the memory your device gives the page. Very large files are better handled on a desktop or with a cloud task.
- Materials and textures survive only in formats that support them. STL carries geometry alone.
Frequently asked questions
Is glTF to GLB free?
Yes. This pair links to a converter that runs in your browser, and single-file conversions use a free daily allowance. No account is required to start, and you can register later for a larger allowance.
Do my files leave my device?
This pair links to a local browser converter, so the file is processed on your device and is not uploaded. Cloud processing, where a tool uses it, is labeled on the tool page and stores results only temporarily.
Can I convert several files at once?
Single-file conversion is available to everyone. Batch conversion is a paid capability, and cloud tasks have their own daily or monthly quotas. The pricing page lists the current limits.
What should I check after converting to GLB?
Open it in a web viewer or engine and check scale, orientation and materials.
