Rhinoceros 3D File
The native file format for Rhinoceros 3D (Rhino), a powerful and versatile NURBS-based 3D modeling software. As Rhino’s default format, 3DM is designed to store precise mathematical representations of curves, surfaces, and solids, making it ideal for high-accuracy modeling across industries.
Supported Geometry Types
Known for its precision and versatility, the 3DM format supports a comprehensive range of geometric data types, making it ideal for both organic freeform modeling and technical CAD applications, including:
- NURBS Surfaces: Enables mathematically precise, smooth, and editable surfaces essential for high-end industrial and automotive design.
- Polygonal Meshes: Stores tessellated geometry for 3D printing, rendering, and simulation.
- SubD (Subdivision Surfaces): Allows for flexible, organic modeling with editable subdivision geometry.
- Instance References: Lightweight object copies (not duplicates) that reference a single source, saving memory and ensuring synchronized updates.
3DM File Conversion
Our software solutions enable seamless conversion between 3DM and other major CAD formats (e.g., STEP, IGES, OBJ, DWG, STL). Autoconverter exports only polygonal meshes (STL, OBJ, etc.), suitable for 3D printing and real-time rendering, while Autoshaper preserves NURBS geometry, ensuring superior accuracy for CAD, CAM, and engineering workflows. Both converters can save 3DM files in legacy formats (Rhino 2.X - 7.X) or the latest Rhino 8.X version, ensuring smooth collaboration across different software environments.
Joint Photographic Experts Group Image
This file format is a widely used method for compressing digital images, particularly photographs and other images with continuous color variations. Unlike BMP, which stores every pixel without modification, JPEG uses a lossy compression technique that discards some data to achieve smaller file sizes.
Key Characteristics of JPEG or JPG
- Smaller File Sizes: JPG compression significantly reduces file size compared to BMP, making it efficient for storage, transmission, and web sharing.
- Adjustable Compression: You can control the level of compression, allowing a trade-off between file size and image quality based on your needs.
- Good Visual Quality: While discarding some data, JPEG often maintains visually acceptable image quality for most photos and web graphics.
- Lossy Compression: Discarded data cannot be recovered, leading to potential loss of image detail and quality, especially in areas with high-frequency information like sharp edges or textures.
JPEG/JPG to 3D Conversion
Autoconverter and Automesher Application enable you to work with JPEG images and multiple 3D formats. These powerful tools convert JPEG files into 3D formats including STL, DWG, SKP, 3MF, and more, while also supporting other popular image formats. Ready to transform your JPG images into 3D models?
