AMF File - Additive Manufacturing File Format for 3D Printing
The Additive Manufacturing File Format (AMF) is a modern XML-based standard specifically designed for 3D printing and digital fabrication. As the official successor to STL, the AMF format enables improved print accuracy, material definition, and advanced printing capabilities for the next generation of additive manufacturing workflows.
Key Features of AMF Files
- Multi-Material & Color Support: Enhance 3D prints with detailed color, gradient textures, and multiple materials for realistic prototypes and final products.
- Efficient Geometry Reuse: Save space and improve speed by referencing repeated geometry instead of duplicating mesh data.
- Compression Ready: Supports ZIP-compressed AMF files to reduce file sizes while preserving model fidelity and print quality.
Convert AMF Files to STL, OBJ, 3MF, and More
Convert AMF to STL, OBJ, DAE, 3MF, and SKP using our powerful tools: Autoconverter and Automesher Application. These solutions use the open-source Asset Import Library (Assimp) to ensure wide compatibility and robust support for 3D file formats. Whether you are prototyping or producing final parts, our AMF file converters deliver the reliability you need for modern 3D printing and CAD workflows.
Rhinoceros 3D (3DM) File Format
The 3DM file format is the native format for Rhinoceros 3D (Rhino), a leading NURBS-based 3D modeling software used across industries like architecture, engineering, and industrial design. 3DM files accurately store mathematical representations of curves, surfaces, solids, and meshes, making them essential for precision 3D modeling and CAD workflows.
Key Features of 3DM Files
- NURBS Geometry: Supports precise, smooth surfaces critical for advanced design and engineering projects.
- Polygonal Meshes: Stores tessellated 3D models ideal for rendering, simulation, and 3D printing workflows.
- SubD Surfaces: Allows flexible, editable subdivision modeling for organic shapes and complex surfaces.
- Instance References: Saves memory by creating linked object instances, optimizing large and detailed models.
Convert 3DM Files Seamlessly
Autoconverter and Autoshaper simplify 3DM file conversion to popular formats like STEP, IGES, OBJ, STL, and DWG. Automate the export of 3DM polygon meshes for 3D printing, or preserve NURBS data for engineering-grade CAD models. Save files in legacy (Rhino 2.X - 7.X) or latest Rhino 8.X formats to ensure compatibility across all project environments.
