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.

GLB Graphics Language Transmission File

A file format developed and maintained by the Khronos Group organization, a consortium of industry leaders that creates open standards for graphics, media, and parallel computing. It is designed to facilitate the efficient storage and exchange of 3D models.

Key Features of GLTF/GLB

  • GLTF Versions:

    There are two versions of the GLTF file format that are available:
    • GLTF 1.0:
      Supports basic geometry, simple materials with textures, basic skeletal animations with joint hierarchies, scenes with a single root node and a hierarchy of child nodes, etc.
    • GLTF 2.0:
      Supports more features, such as PBR (Physically Based Rendering) materials, Draco compression, advanced skeletal animations, skinning, morph targets, etc.

  • ASCII and Binary Modes:

    By default, a GLTF file is saved in ASCII text mode, which is human-readable and easy to edit. To save a GLTF file with all referenced texture images in binary mode, the GLB file extension should be used. This reduces the file size and the number of files.

  • Embedded Textures:

    GLTF/GLB files allow for a more streamlined and efficient way to manage 3D assets. By storing textures directly within the file, these formats eliminate the need for separate image files, making the 3D model self-contained and easier to distribute.

GLTF/GLB File Conversion

Autoconverter and Automesher Application allow you to import and export GLTF and GLB files, and convert them into various other 3D file formats. Our products also support the use of Draco compression, which can significantly reduce the size of GLTF and GLB files without compromising visual fidelity.
