  The STL file format has become the standard file format for the Rapid Prototyping industry’s standard for transmission of data. This format approximates the surfaces of a solid model with triangles. The more complex the surface the more triangles produced.

  The industry standard for rapid prototyping is the .STL file, a file extension that stands for STereoLithography. Basically, it’s a file that uses a mesh of triangles to form the shell of your solid object, where each triangle shares common sides and vertices.
