About Innerscene Universal 3D Viewer
Innerscene Universal 3D Viewer is a free tool for opening CAD and mesh files directly in your web browser, with nothing to install. It reads 17+ formats, including SketchUp (.skp), AutoCAD (.dwg, .dxf), STEP, Rhino (.3dm), glTF/GLB, OBJ, STL, FBX, PLY, 3DS, 3MF, COLLADA, VRML, and X3D, so you no longer need a separate app for each file a collaborator sends.
Files are parsed and rendered locally in your browser and are not uploaded by default, which keeps proprietary and NDA work on your own machine. You can inspect layers, switch render modes, take measurements, and convert geometry to STL, OBJ, GLB, or PDF. Share links preserve the camera, lighting, and layer state, and a one line iframe snippet embeds the viewer in any page.
Built by Innerscene, a maker of artificial skylights, to open the many formats architects, engineers, and vendors kept sending. Free to use, no account required.

ADA 3D STL Viewer
The STL Viewer is FREE software for the visualization of STL or OBJ meshes created in packages such as 3D Studio Max, MAYA, and Z Brush, modeled in CAD systems, or generated from 3D digitalization of physical objects. With its simplified user interface, fast rendering, and ability to handle even big volumes of data the STL Viewer is an ideal tool for examining polygonal meshes. STL file format is a common format for 3D digitizing, rapid prototyping, animation, and 3D data archiving software. If you receive triangular mesh data containing CAD models, scan data, or 3D designs you can quickly see it in the viewer. You may also find it useful if you are a company or person providing such data to your customers and need a visualization tool to give away with it. Loading polygonal meshes in STL and OBJ file formats. Quickly resetting the object in default views, front, back, left, right, top and bottom.

CAD Assistant
Open Cascade CAD Assistant is a powerful offline 3D CAD viewer and converter with simple and intuitive interface, free for both personal and commercial use. Originally developed as a testbed and showcase for the Open CASCADE Technology on mobile platforms, the solution has been appreciated as fast and handy 3D viewer by thousands of end-users on mobiles and desktops worldwide. CAD Assistant brings the power of open technologies to the hands of engineers working with 3D data. CAD Assistant is based on open source libraries (Open CASCADE Technology, Qt, FreeType, FreeImage, etc.) and employs open formats for CAD and mesh data (STEP, IFC, IGES, BREP, glTF, JT, PLY, STL, OBJ, 3DM). It also supports a set of other file formats like DXF, SAT (ACIS), XT (Parasolid). Viewing mesh models with associated data is an additional functionality included in CAD Assistant. Mesh can be read from files in PLY format.
