Convert Your 3D Mesh/Model OBJ Files to XYZ

Our free and fast tool will convert most 3D mesh or OBJ (Wavefront) model files to a standard XYZ (Point Cloud) file that can then be edited further in most popular 3D editing packages such as Blender or 3D printed without any further processing. Our conversion tool can also batch convert multiple OBJ files, up to 25 files at a time can be converted.

To convert your OBJ file click the Upload button above and select the file to convert. Once selected, the file will be converted to a XYZ file and will ready for download shortly afterwards. For more information about the OBJ to XYZ conversion process see the conversion information section below for more information.

How to Convert your OBJ to XYZ Online?

Here are 2 simple steps to convert your OBJ to XYZ.

Upload a OBJ

Download your XYZ

Click the download link once completed to receive your XYZ file.

FAQ

How can I convert my OBJ file to XYZ?

First click the "Upload..." button, select your OBJ file to upload. Select any configuration options. When the OBJ to XYZ conversion has completed, you can download your XYZ file straight away.

How long does it take to convert my OBJ to XYZ?

We aim to process all OBJ to XYZ conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds but can be more for larger more complex files so please be patient.

How accurate is the OBJ to XYZ conversion?

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.

Is it safe to convert my OBJ to XYZ on ImageToStl.com?

Yes, of course! We do not store the OBJ file you submit to us. The resulting XYZ file, once created is deleted 15 minutes after upload and the download link will expire after this time.

Can I convert OBJ to XYZ on Windows, Linux, Android, iOS or Mac OS?

Yes! Our OBJ to XYZ tool will run on any system with a modern web browser. No specialist software is needed to run any of our conversion tools.

What if I am using an Ad Blocker, will that affect things?

Yes. Although you can use an Ad Blocker, if you like our OBJ 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.

I have several OBJ files, can I batch convert my OBJ to XYZ?

Yes! Our OBJ tool supports full batch conversions. You can upload up to 25 OBJ files at a time. Our tool will convert them all as quickly as possible. Once completed, you can either download the XYZ files individually or download them all in a single Zip file.

File format information for OBJ to XYZ

ExtensionOBJ
Full NameWavefront
Type3D Model
Mime Typetext/plain
FormatText
Open WithMeshLab, CAD Assistant, DAZ Studio

Description

The OBJ file format originally created by Wavefront Technologies and later adopted by many other 3D software vendors is a simple text-based file format for describing 3D model/geometry. This data can include Vertices, Faces, Normals, Texture Coordinates and references to external Texture files.

As the format is text-based it is relatively straight-forward to parse by 3D modelling applications. A downside of the text-based format is the files can be rather large compared to similar binary formats such as STL and compressed files such as 3MF.

OBJ Notes

Currently our tool does not support importing materials or color information from your OBJ file.

Supported Features

  • Mesh geometry

Unsupported Features

  • Textures
  • Material colors
ExtensionXYZ
Full NamePoint Cloud
Type3D Model/Point Cloud
Mime Typetext/plain
FormatText
Open WithMeshLab

Description

The XYZ is a 3D file format used for representing 3D Point Clouds. The format contains only positional information (X, Y, Z coordinates) for the individual points. The format is often used for digital elevation modelling of terrain for later processing in 3D modelling applications.

As the format only contains positional information a common task is to convert this into a fully surfaced 3D model using methods such as Alpha Shapes or Delaunay Triangulation. The format can also be viewed without further processing in its raw format.

XYZ Notes

Only vertex information will be saved to the XYZ Point Cloud file generated by our tool, all other information such as faces and material colors will be discarded in the final file due to this information not being supported.

When creating a preview of the XYZ file our tool will render the Point Cloud as individual squares.

Supported Features

  • Mesh vertex data
