X3D Extensible 3D File

An open-source, royalty-free standard developed by the Web3D Consortium. X3D uses XML encoding to represent 3D scenes and models. This versatile format excels in web-based 3D graphics, offering real-time rendering capabilities, animation support, and seamless integration with HTML5. Its extensible design makes it ideal for VR/AR applications, engineering visualizations, and interactive simulations.

Key Features of X3D/X3DB

  • Legacy: Direct successor to VRML with backward compatibility.
  • Web Integration: Designed for HTML5 (X3DOM, Three.js compatibility).
  • Scene Graph: Hierarchical organization of nodes (transformations, groups, etc.).
  • File Structure: XML-based encoding with human-readable/textual representation.

X3D/X3DB File Conversion

Autoconverter and Automesher Application offer full support for X3D file conversion, ensuring smooth interoperability between X3D and major 3D formats like STL, OBJ, SKP, 3DS, and STEP. Using our effective X3D converters you can easily transfer mesh models to and from this web-friendly 3D standard while preserving geometry, materials, and scene hierarchy.


STL What is an STL File? (STereoLithography Format Explained)

The STL file format (short for STereoLithography) was developed by 3D Systems, a pioneer in the 3D printing industry, to simplify rapid prototyping and manufacturing processes. Today, STL files are one of the most common file types used in computer-aided design (CAD), digital fabrication, and additive manufacturing workflows. STL models exclusively represent 3D geometry as a triangular mesh, offering high compatibility and fast processing across various 3D printers and modeling software.

Key Features of the STL Format

  • Lightweight and Simple: An STL file contains only the coordinates of vertices and normal vectors of triangles, making it extremely easy for 3D software and printers to interpret.
  • No Textures or Materials: STL models do not store color, texture, transparency, or material information, resulting in pure geometric representations without extra attributes.
  • Two Storage Methods: STL files are available in two distinct formats:
    • Binary STL: The most popular choice due to its small file size, ideal for faster saving, sharing, and printing.
    • ASCII STL: A human-readable text format that explicitly describes each triangle but produces significantly larger files.
  • No Fixed Units: The STL format does not define units (millimeters, inches, etc.). Most programs assume millimeters by default. Our STL files converter can automatically handle unit adjustments during file conversion if needed.

STL File Conversion Made Easy

Looking to convert STL files into other popular 3D formats? Autoconverter and Automesher Application offer powerful, high-precision STL file conversion to formats like STEP, OBJ, and SKP. These tools allow you to:
