POV-Ray Triangles File
A minimalist ASCII format that stores 3D geometry as plain lists of triangle vertices (X,Y,Z coordinates), without material, color, or topological data. Designed for simplicity, RAW files represent models through raw triangle meshes - ideal for computational workflows where only vertex positions matter - but lack the support for textures or hierarchies.
Key Features of RAW
- File Simplicity: Plain text human-readable format with no headers or metadata.
- Data Content: Stores only vertex coordinates (X Y Z per line).
- Geometry Type: Exclusively represents triangle mesh vertices.
- Small Size: Minimal file overhead due to bare-bones structure.
RAW File Conversion
Automesher Application and Autoconverter software are capable of reading and importing RAW files through the use of the Open Asset Import Library, enabling seamless conversion of triangle-based RAW files into a variety of other formats such as STL, OBJ, DAE, SKP, STEP, and more. Try our reliable RAW converters to export your RAW files into modern formats today!
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.
