A free way to do it is to download alibre, is a lot of resources for a translation tool, but is free and can open sat file and then you can export as step and open it on rhino

Other way that is not free but this one i think is the best way to go about translators is to get a copy of ViaCAD for about 100 US maybe less on ebay or any other stores like amazon, is like rhino but uses .SAT files. open and save again as iges or step and then open on rhino

cheers
