ZWCAD to 3DM Conversion

With our custom exporter, exporting ZWCAD drawings to 3DM is a breeze in three easy steps:

  1. Download & Install:

    Export 3DM files directly from ZWCAD drawings using Automesher Application - simply install the plugin and restart your CAD session.
  2. Execute 3DM Export:

    Launch the export process by typing AmExportMesh in the command line. Then, select the desired 3D entities (Polyface Mesh, Polygon Mesh, 3D Solid, 3D Face, or other 3D drawing entities) from your ZWCAD model space.
  3. Save as 3DM File:

    In the save dialog, set the file type to 3DM (*.3dm), choose your save location, enter a filename, and click Save to complete the export.

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.
