Create 3D animations with our easy-to-use and free tool. Our tool lets you upload a 3MF (3D Manufacturing Format) 3D model file, and from this, create an animated GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) file that you can then download and share without the need for any complex 3D modeling software.
Our 3MF to GIF animation tool includes options to adjust the camera position within the 3D world, set the resolution of the generated GIF file, and, if your 3MF file contains any animations, allow you to set the animation to play. To get started, please click the Upload button and select your 3MF file.
Here are three simple steps to create an GIF file from a 3MF file.

3MF files are a modern 3D file format designed specifically for use with 3D printable models (additive manufacturing). It was designed to be the successor to the popular legacy STL format (also a common format in 3D printing) to overcome the limitations of that format.
The format of 3MF files is XML-based and compressed with standard Zip file compression, resulting in small, easily transferable files. The format supports 3D meshes along with associated materials and textures, all contained within the Zip file.
If your 3MF file contains textures, these will be included in the conversion process. If a material contains color information, this will be translated where possible.

GIF files have been around since the mid-to-late 1980's and were introduced by CompuServe as a way to compress color images into small file sizes suitable for downloading, at which time most download speeds were limited. The format allows varying-size color palettes of up to 256 colors in total to be defined from a palette of 16 million colors.
Later on, the ability to add animations to the GIF file format was added. GIF files became a popular image file format for the early internet due to their small size, large color palette, and animation capabilities, and they are still popular today.
First click the "Upload..." button, select your 3MF file to upload. Select any configuration options. When the 3MF to GIF conversion has completed, you can download your GIF file straight away.
We aim to process all 3MF to GIF conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds but can be more for larger more complex files so please be patient.
We aim to create the most accurate conversions with our tools. Our tools are under constant development with new features and improvements being added every week.
Yes, of course! We do not store the 3MF file you submit to us. The resulting GIF file, once created is deleted 15 minutes after upload and the download link will expire after this time.
No. All our conversion tools process your 3MF file on our dedicated conversion servers, meaning you can use our tools on low-spec computers, laptops, tablets, and mobile devices and receive your converted GIF file quickly.
Yes! Our 3MF to GIF tool will run on any system with a modern web browser. No specialist software is needed to run any of our conversion tools.
Yes. Although you can use an Ad Blocker, if you like our 3MF conversion tool please consider white-listing our site. When an Ad Blocker is enabled there are some conversion limits on some of our tools and processing/conversion times will be longer.
Yes. When you have converted your 3MF to GIF, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
