ResultTessellated

NURBS surfaces and extrusions are tessellated, existing meshes taken directly and SubD objects meshed from their smooth surface, in millimetres, one object per Rhino object where the 3MF format keeps objects apart. Trimmed boundaries and holes keep their silhouettes.

HowThree steps
  1. Drop your .3dm file above — up to 200 MB without an account.
  2. 3MF is already selected as the output.
  3. Download the .3mf. Without an account, files are deleted within 24 hours; signed in, they are kept until you delete them.

Rhinoceros 3D model file (.3dm)

A 3DM file is a Rhino model. Rhino is a NURBS modeller, dominant in industrial design, jewellery, marine and architecture. A 3DM can mix exact breps, surfaces, meshes and curves on layers; polysurfaces and extrusions convert exactly, and mesh objects come along: as meshes in a mesh format, rebuilt as true surfaces in a solid one.

A designer works in Rhino and engineering or manufacturing needs the shape in a format their system reads.

3D Manufacturing Format file (.3mf)

3MF was designed to replace STL for 3D printing. It records units, colour and material, keeps multiple objects separate, and is compressed. Bambu Studio, PrusaSlicer, Cura and Windows all read it. The shape is still a triangle mesh.

You are printing and want units, colour and part structure to survive the handover.

Questions6 answered
Is the 3DM to 3MF converter free?
Yes. 5 conversions a day with no account and no card. A free account raises the limit and adds 25 credits.
Do I need Rhino installed?
No. The 3DM file is read in the browser with nothing installed and no Rhino licence.
How accurate is the 3MF mesh?
The Rhino geometry is triangulated into a 3MF mesh. NURBS surfaces and extrusions are tessellated, existing meshes taken directly and SubD objects meshed from their smooth surface, in millimetres, one object per Rhino object where the 3MF format keeps objects apart. Trimmed boundaries and holes keep their silhouettes.
How big a file can I convert?
To a mesh format like STL: 300 MB with a free account, 200 MB without one. To STEP, Parasolid or SLDPRT: 140 MB, because rebuilding a solid takes about twice the memory of writing a mesh. Maker and Studio convert up to 830 MB and 380 MB — a large conversion on a paid plan gets the server to itself.
Is it safe to upload my 3DM file?
Files travel encrypted and are processed by machine on our own servers — no third parties, no ads or trackers, no AI training.
Is my 3DM file deleted after converting?
Without an account, the upload and the result are deleted within 24 hours. With an account, both stay in your files until you delete them; deleted files leave our servers within 24 hours.
Beyond convertingSame file, four workspaces

Keep the part open: fill it with a lattice, check it with FEA, texture a surface, or slice it into cut-ready sheets. These workspaces are in early access — create an account, then apply from inside the app.
