To convert 3MF (.3mf) to 3DM (.3dm), drop the file below and download the result, in the browser with nothing installed. The 3DM file you get back carries a mesh, not NURBS surfaces.

The 3MF geometry is written into the 3DM file as a triangle mesh, one named Rhino object for each object in the file, in millimetres, which Rhino opens, measures and exports normally.
For editable NURBS surfaces in Rhino, convert to STEP instead.
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.
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.
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.
