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.

IFC Industrial Foundation Classes File

It is an open, ISO-certified standard (ISO 16739) specifically designed for the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry. As a vendor-neutral format, IFC enables seamless data exchange and interoperability between different software applications, eliminating proprietary barriers in collaborative projects.

IFC Format Capabilities

The IFC format can store comprehensive project data for AEC workflows, including but not limited to:

  • Geometry:

    The IFC standard captures detailed 3D representations through multiple entity types including solids, surfaces, curves, and point clouds.

  • Units:

    Each model component specifies its measurement system (meters, inches, degrees, or radians) for precise interpretation.

  • Materials:

    IFC's material system controls visual properties through RGBA values (0-1 range) for accurate color and transparency settings.

  • Instances:

    Through IFC's mapping system, identical geometries can be referenced multiple times, optimizing storage and performance.

  • Structure:

    IFC organizes projects hierarchically using named components with unique identifiers, enabling complex project management.

  • BIM:

    As a BIM-native (Building Information Modeling) format, IFC stores building information like properties, constraints, and relationships alongside geometry.

IFC File Conversion

Autoconverter and Automesher Application support IFC format, allowing you to import and export IFC models seamlessly. You can edit custom properties of IFC geometries and convert them to various 3D file formats. However please note that some IFC-specific features might not be fully supported in other formats and could be lost during conversion.
