Create 3D animations with our easy-to-use and free tool. Our tool lets you upload a AMF (Additive Manufacturing File) 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 AMF 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 AMF file contains any animations, allow you to set the animation to play. To get started, please click the Upload button and select your AMF file.
Here are three simple steps to create an GIF file from a AMF file.
| Extension | AMF |
| Full Name | Additive Manufacturing File |
| Type | 3D Model |
| Mime Type | text/xml |
| Format | Text |
| Tools | AMF Converters, 3D Model Voxelizer, Create AMF Animation, Compress AMF, AMF Asset Extractor, Text to AMF, AMF Viewer |
The AMF, or additive manufacturing file format, is an open standard 3D file format primarily used within additive manufacturing processes such as 3D printing. The initial release version of the file was in 2011, and the format continues to be developed today.
As this is a 3D file format, the contents, which are XML-based, describe one or many 3D objects broken down into solid volumes defined with vertices and triangles. The format has support for color and texture materials.
When converting from AMF files, our tool will try to convert any geometric and color data found in the model file.

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.
Many 3D file conversion websites use the same off-the-shelf components to convert files, these often lack features and full AMF file compatibility. Our bespoke file conversion tools offer full AMF file compatibility and have been developed in-house by a team of developers, some of whom have over 30 years of experience working with 3D graphics file formats, meaning our tools will convert your AMF file quickly and accurately with maximum compatibility.
First click the "Upload..." button, select your AMF file to upload. Select any configuration options. When the AMF to GIF conversion has completed, you can download your GIF file straight away.
We aim to process all AMF 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 AMF file you submit to us. The resulting GIF file, once created, is stored for 1 hour after upload; after this time it is deleted, and the short-term download link will stop working. You can create a long-term download Url with most tools that will ensure the file is retained for 24 hours, allowing you to download the file when convenient. Our tools also come with a Delete button, allowing you to delete the file immediately.
No. All our conversion tools process your AMF 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 AMF 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 AMF 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 AMF to GIF, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
