BLEND Blender 3D (BLEND) Project File

The BLEND file is the native project format for Blender, the powerful open-source 3D modeling, animation, and rendering suite. Designed to store complete 3D scenes, BLEND files encapsulate models, textures, materials, lighting, animations, and scene settings - enabling a flexible, non-destructive workflow for artists, game developers, and 3D designers worldwide.

Key Features of BLEND Files

  • Comprehensive Project Storage: BLEND files consolidate models, rigs, textures, simulations, lighting setups, animations, and more into a single, manageable file.
  • Cross-Platform Compatibility: Fully supported across Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems with seamless interoperability.
  • Efficient File Compression: BLEND files utilize integrated gzip compression to minimize storage size while retaining all 3D project data.
  • Backward and Forward Compatibility: Blender ensures older BLEND files remain accessible and upgradeable in newer software versions, preserving your project history.
  • Multi-Format Export: Export from Blender to formats like FBX, OBJ, STL, GLTF, and more for enhanced versatility and pipeline integration.

Convert BLEND Files to CAD Formats

With our Autoconverter and Automesher Application, you can easily import BLEND files and convert them into various 3D file formats, including DWG, SKP, STEP, and FBX. This enables smooth transitions of your Blender-created 3D models into professional CAD workflows while maintaining geometry, object hierarchies, and layer structures.

Note: Our software currently supports importing BLEND files for conversion. Direct export to the BLEND format is not available. We ensure your 3D geometry and organizational data are preserved during the conversion process.


GLB GLTF and GLB 3D File Format

The GLTF (GL Transmission Format) and GLB file types are modern open standards developed by the Khronos Group for efficient storage, transmission, and rendering of 3D models. Designed for the web, gaming, VR/AR, and real-time applications, these formats enable compact, high-performance 3D asset workflows across platforms.

Key Features of GLTF and GLB Files

  • GLTF Versions:
    • GLTF 1.0: Supports basic geometry, textures, simple materials, and skeletal animations with joint hierarchies.
    • GLTF 2.0: Adds advanced features like PBR (Physically Based Rendering) materials, Draco compression, morph targets, skinning, and enhanced animation capabilities.
  • ASCII vs Binary: GLTF files are human-readable (JSON format), while GLB files combine 3D data, textures, and materials into a compact, binary format for faster loading and easier distribution.
  • Embedded Textures: Both GLTF and GLB can embed textures directly, creating self-contained 3D assets ideal for web and mobile applications.

Convert GLTF and GLB Files

With Autoconverter and Automesher Application, you can easily import, export, and convert GLTF and GLB files to formats like OBJ, FBX, STL, and more. Our software supports Draco compression, enabling significantly smaller file sizes while preserving the quality and performance of your 3D assets.
