OBJ to PNG

Render a Wavefront OBJ to a PNG — with a transparent background, at the angle and resolution you pick. Good for product shots, docs, catalogue thumbnails and asset previews. Free and 100% local.

No model handy?

How it works

  • This is a renderer, not a mesh converter: the OBJ goes in, a raster image comes out. The result is a picture, not geometry.
  • PNG keeps a real alpha channel, so the model can sit on a transparent background and drop cleanly onto any page. WebP does the same; JPG cannot.
  • Pick isometric, front, top or right. The camera frames the model's bounding sphere, so switching angles never changes the scale.
  • An OBJ's colors live in a separate .mtl file, which isn't part of the .obj you drop here — so an untextured OBJ renders in a single shaded material.
  • It reads more than OBJ: drop an STL, GLB, 3MF, PLY, STEP, IGES, FBX or DAE and it renders those too.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert an OBJ to a PNG?
Drop the .obj file above, choose a camera angle and resolution, then hit Download .png. The model is rendered locally in your browser with WebGL — nothing is uploaded.
Can I get a PNG with a transparent background?
Yes — transparent is the default background for PNG. The alpha channel is preserved, so the model can be layered over any color or image afterwards.
Why is my OBJ rendering without its colors or texture?
An OBJ references its materials from a separate .mtl file and its textures from image files next to it. Dropping the .obj alone gives the renderer geometry but no materials, so it uses a single shaded color. Convert to GLB first if you need the textures baked into one file.
Can I turn the PNG back into an OBJ?
Not the same model — a render discards the 3D geometry. The Image to STL tool can build a new heightmap relief from a picture, but it will not reconstruct the original mesh.
Does my OBJ file get uploaded anywhere?
No. There is no server and no upload. The file is parsed and rendered entirely on your device, and nothing is stored.
What resolution can I export?
64 up to 4096 pixels per side, square or custom, with one-click presets at 512², 1024², 2048² and 1920×1080.
