SketchUp File
A versatile 3D modeling format, native for SketchUp, initially developed by Google and now actively maintained by Trimble. Known for its efficiency and ease of use, SKP files are widely utilized in architecture, interior design, engineering, and product development.
Key Benefits and Features
3D Model Data:
SKP files support reusable geometry components, named mesh groups, and textured materials, enabling efficient modeling workflows. The ability to reuse components can significantly speed up the design process, making SKP files a valuable asset in both architectural and product design workflows.Version Compatibility:
Different SKP file versions have different requirements for conversion. For example, SKP file version 16 and above need Win64 build, while earlier versions can use Win32 build. It is important for users to be aware of these SKP version-specific requirements to ensure seamless SketchUp file sharing and collaboration.Scalability:
Whether you're designing a small furniture piece or an extensive urban landscape, SKP files efficiently handle models of varying complexity and scale. SketchUp's optimization ensures smooth performance even for large, detailed 3D scenes.
SKP File Conversion
SKP files can be saved and converted across multiple versions, from SketchUp 3 to SketchUp 2025, with the help of our Autoconverter, a powerful tool ensuring high accuracy and efficiency. Autoconverter allows users to convert SKP files between different versions, facilitating collaboration across various SketchUp versions and ensuring that designs can be accessed and modified regardless of the specific version used by different team members.

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.
