3DM to IGES
Please find below the list of our other useful resources related to 3DM and IGES interoperability and exchange that could help you with the 3DM to IGES conversion.

3DM Rhino File
3DM (Rhino) file format for Rhinoceros software allows you to store your 3D model as smooth NURBS surfaces, triangular meshes, points or just curves. Using our Autoconverter software you can save only 3DM polygonal meshes with triangular faces, while the Autoshaper product allows you to store NURBS solids or shells which represent your model in the most accurate way. Our 3DM file converters allow you also to save Rhino files with the required 3DM file version, starting from the Rhino 2.X to the most recent Rhino 8.X file version.
IGES File
IGES (Initial Graphics Exchange Specification) is the initial file format for the data exchange between different systems e.g. CAD, CAM or CAE. As the geometry data are stored in a text file format, you will get bigger file sizes when exporting triangular meshes with thousands of faces using Autoconverter software. The IGES file format supports color per assembly, but without the alpha component, therefore any transparency setting will be lost in the IGES file.
