DAE to 3DM: Resources

Enclosed is a comprehensive list of resources related to the interoperability and exchange between DAE and 3DM files. These resources will prove invaluable in facilitating the conversion from DAE to 3DM files.


Collada DAE File DAE

The DAE (Collada) file extension, an acronym for Digital Asset Exchange, is the primary file format used for exchanging digital assets such as textures, mesh geometries, and texture images across various 3D software products. The DAE format has the ability to store reusable geometry component instances, multiple texture images with corresponding texture coordinates, color transparency, and named groups hierarchy. Our DAE file converters, Autoconverter and Autoshaper, utilize the OpenCOLLADA open framework, facilitating seamless processing of your DAE files. This framework empowers us to read and write to the Collada DAE file format in an efficient and user-friendly manner.


Rhino 3DM File 3DM

The 3DM (Rhino) is a native file format for Rhinoceros software, which allows for the storage of a variety of 3D geometry data types, including smooth NURBS surfaces, triangular meshes, points, and curves. However, our Autoconverter software exports and saves only polygonal meshes in the 3DM files. In contrast, our Autoshaper product enables the export of NURBS solids, providing a precise representation of your 3D model. These invaluable 3DM file converters also offer the flexibility to save Rhino files in various 3DM file versions, ranging from Rhino 2.X to the most recent Rhino 8.X version.
