PNG Portable Network Graphics Image

It's a type of raster image file format that uses lossless compression. This means that the image quality is preserved even when the file size is reduced. PNG files also support transparency, which allows images to have irregular shapes or backgrounds that blend with the web page. However, PNG files do not support animation, unlike GIF files.

Key Features of PNG

  • Space-Saving Efficiency:

    PNG’s compressed format delivers smaller files than uncompressed alternatives (e.g., BMP), accelerating webpage loads without sacrificing quality.

  • Lossless Compression:

    Using the same DEFLATE algorithm as ZIP files, PNG’s lossless compression retains crisp details - ideal for repeated edits or archiving.

  • Diverse Imagery:

    Where JPEG struggles with artifacts in text/logos, PNG excels at rendering solid colors and hard edges flawlessly.

  • Advanced Color Options:

    From full 24-bit RGB (plus 8-bit alpha transparency) to compact 256-color palettes, PNG adapts to both complex photos and simple graphics.

PNG to 3D Converters

Our Autoconverter and Automesher Application software support PNG and other image formats for conversion to various 3D file types including STL, 3DS, FBX, and 3DM. You can easily import PNG files and export them in your preferred 3D format for use in modeling projects.

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.
