Convert ZWCAD to 3MF: The Essential References

ZWCAD to 3MF: Resources

Refer to the following resources for additional support on the interoperability and exchange of ZWCAD and 3MF file formats. They will assist you in transitioning from ZWCAD to 3MF files.


ZWCAD Drawing CAD

ZWCAD is a cost-effective alternative to AutoCAD, developed and continuously supported by the ZWSOFT company in China. The latest release of ZWCAD is equipped to handle the most recent DWG file format, aligning with the latest AutoCAD release. With our Automesher Application and Automapki Application plugins for ZWCAD, you can seamlessly import and export from various external 3D and GIS file formats directly into ZWCAD drawing model space. Leveraging the ObjectZRX customization technology from ZWSOFT, we can efficiently integrate with the ZWCAD environment to facilitate smooth translations for your 3D and GIS file formats.


3MF File 3MF

The 3MF (3D Manufacturing Format) is an open-source XML file format developed by the 3MF Consortium. It’s specifically designed to store three-dimensional triangles, along with additional properties such as color, transparency, or texture coordinates, catering to the needs of the 3D printing industry. The 3MF file format is considered a modern alternative to the legacy STL format for 3D printing. Our Autoconverter software and Automesher Application are capable of reading from and writing to the 3MF files, leveraging the open-source lib3mf library provided by the 3MF Consortium. However, please be aware that group hierarchies are not supported for 3MF files.
