Reset your 3D model's pivot to the bounding box center and align to the origin, making it easier for 3D printing, CAD, and game engines.

This tool automatically resets the pivot point of a 3D model, moving it to the center of the bounding box and aligning to the world origin. No need for desktop software like Blender or Maya. After processing, the model's positioning and rotation become predictable in slicers, CAD programs, and game engines. Supports STL, GLB, OBJ, and more. All operations run locally in your browser, no files uploaded.
In 3D printing and game engines, the pivot point determines how the model rotates, scales, and positions. Resetting it to the bounding box center makes these operations more intuitive. This is an online alternative to manually adjusting in Blender or Maya, saving you time.
No. Only the pivot point changes; the model's geometry, materials, textures, and other details remain unchanged. Only the spatial reference point is affected.
Supports importing STL, GLB, OBJ, and other common formats. After automatically resetting the pivot, you can export as STL or GLB, keeping or switching between formats.
The 3D preview simultaneously displays a semi-transparent original coordinate frame at (0, 0, 0) and an interactive target pivot Gizmo. You can drag the Gizmo with smart snapping to bounding box reference points and mesh surface features, or enter exact X/Y/Z values and presets in the sidebar.
For static models, the result is exact and safe. For rigged or animated files, the pivot offset is baked into the geometry rather than the scene transform, so it may affect animations. Always check the exported result in your target software before relying on it.
Files often store the pivot (origin) far from the geometry. Software places the model by that pivot, so the part appears offset. Resetting the pivot centers the geometry on the world origin, making placement predictable in slicers, CAD, and game engines.
Geometric CenterInstantly snap the pivot to standard geometric references on the model.
Drag the interactive Any3D translation gizmo in the 3D viewport along axes or planes, or input precise X, Y, Z world coordinates.
onAutomatically snap the pivot to key bounding box centers, face midpoints, and corners. Hold Alt while dragging to temporarily disable snapping.
offEnable precision snapping to geometry vertices, edge midpoints, and triangle face centers (vertices/edges/faces).
onRender magenta alignment guide lines traversing the model to indicate active snapping reference planes.
Modify root nodeChoose how the transform is applied to the model: by modifying vertices (baked into geometry data) or by modifying the root node transform. Modifying vertices rewrites all vertex coordinates and applies consistently to every export format; modifying the root node keeps the original vertex coordinates, which is friendlier to animated, skinned, or geometry-sensitive workflows. Root node transform is the recommended default.
