Anyone who knows a way to convert STEP-files (.stp) using FME? I cannot find a reader for this format, closest one is IFC I guess. The format is ASCII-based so maybe there is some workaround using other readers/transformers?

Hello @atle_hoidalen,
I have never to work with this format ( stp ), but I did search on the Web and I saw that this file is open in Catia Software. Is that right?
There is a Idea here in Knowledge Base to read in future. You can vote in this link below:
I hope this helps you.
Thanks,
Danilo

Yes, you are probably correct. But it is also used as an exchange format for 3D-models between many softwares. I will vote up the suggestion for implementing a Catia reader in FME. :)
+1 for this. Not specifically CATIA, but most parasolid engineering products. Solidworks, Autodesk Inventor, ProEngineer, Autodeks Fusion etc. I am interested in this for the reason of impending model-based definition workflows in the AEC context. (FILE_SCHEMA (('AP242_MANAGED_MODEL_BASED_3D_ENGINEERING_MIM_LF { 1 0 10303 442 1 1 4 }'));
ENDSEC;).. https://www.plm.automation.siemens.com/global/en/products/mechanical-design/model-based.html just imagine that!

Hi everyone,
We’re currently considering adding Rhino and STEP as supported formats and would like to gather some feedback. Specifically, for those who have voted for the STEP format, does Rhino 3DM ever come up on your radar? Do you have any insights to share about its importance to your workflow?
To clarify, we may eventually implement both formats, but as we plan our short-term roadmap, we need to prioritize.
