BLEND to 3DM - 3-Step BLEND Conversion To Any Format

Convert BLEND to 3DM

BLEND to 3DM Conversion

A straightforward guide to help you effortlessly convert BLEND to 3DM in 3 easy steps:

  1. Download & Install:

    Convert your BLEND files to 3DM format seamlessly using Autoconverter - simply install and launch the software on your system.

  2. Import BLEND File:

    Either click Open... to browse for your .blend file, or drag and drop it anywhere in the application window.

  3. Export to 3DM Format:

    Use Save As... to specify both location and filename (with .3dm extension) for your exported file.

Having technical issues with BLEND to 3DM conversion? Our troubleshooting guides fix BLEND files conversion problems:

BLEND Blender File

The native file format for Blender, the open-source 3D creation suite, is engineered to store and transfer complex 3D assets - including models, animations, materials, and scene data. As an all-in-one solution, it powers everything from photorealistic renders to interactive animations while maintaining Blender’s flexible, non-destructive workflow.

Key Features of BLEND

  • All-in-One Storage:

    BLEND files save everything - models, animations, textures, lighting, and scene setups in one file.

  • Wide Compatibility:

    Works perfectly across Windows, Mac, and Linux. Exports to FBX, OBJ, STL, and more.

  • Smart Compression:

    The BLEND format uses gzip to shrink file sizes while keeping all your project data intact.

  • Always Upgradable:

    Older BLEND files stay compatible with newer Blender versions.

BLEND File Conversion

Our Autoconverter and Automesher Application support importing BLEND files for conversion to CAD formats like DWG (AutoCAD, BricsCAD, ZWCAD). This lets you use Blender-created 3D models in your preferred CAD environment.

Note: Currently, we support BLEND files import only (not export to BLEND format). All conversions preserve model geometry, layers, and object structure.

3DM Rhinoceros 3D File

The native file format for Rhinoceros 3D (Rhino), a powerful and versatile NURBS-based 3D modeling software. As Rhino’s default format, 3DM is designed to store precise mathematical representations of curves, surfaces, and solids, making it ideal for high-accuracy modeling across industries.

Supported Geometry Types

Known for its precision and versatility, the 3DM format supports a comprehensive range of geometric data types, making it ideal for both organic freeform modeling and technical CAD applications, including:

  • NURBS Surfaces:

    Enables mathematically precise, smooth, and editable surfaces essential for high-end industrial and automotive design.

  • Polygonal Meshes:

    Stores tessellated geometry for 3D printing, rendering, and simulation.

  • SubD (Subdivision Surfaces):

    Allows for flexible, organic modeling with editable subdivision geometry.

  • Instance References:

    Lightweight object copies (not duplicates) that reference a single source, saving memory and ensuring synchronized updates.

3DM File Conversion

Our software solutions enable seamless conversion between 3DM and other major CAD formats (e.g., STEP, IGES, OBJ, DWG, STL). Autoconverter exports only polygonal meshes (STL, OBJ, etc.), suitable for 3D printing and real-time rendering, while Autoshaper preserves NURBS geometry, ensuring superior accuracy for CAD, CAM, and engineering workflows. Both converters can save 3DM files in legacy formats (Rhino 2.X - 7.X) or the latest Rhino 8.X version, ensuring smooth collaboration across different software environments.
