Our free and fast tool will convert most 3D mesh or RAR (WinRAR) model files to a standard PLY (Stanford Triangle Format) 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 RAR files; up to 25 files at a time can be converted.
To convert your RAR file, click the Upload button above and select the file to convert. Once selected, the file will be converted to a PLY file and will be ready for download shortly afterwards. For more information about the RAR to PLY conversion process, see the conversion information section below.

The RAR file type has been in active development since the early 1990s and is a popular format for storing and distributing compressed files.
Available originally for DOS, there was also a GUI version for Windows (WinRAR), which is still available today, along with versions for all major platforms and operating systems.

The PLY format is a 3D model format originally developed and released in 1994, with its primary use being to store three-dimensional data from 3D digital scanners. The format known as the Polygon File Format or the Stanford Triangle Format can be either a binary or text-based format.
The file format stores 3D geometric information such as vertices, faces, vertex normals, color, and other custom data. The format is still in use, with many PLY models available to download, and PLY files can be loaded into most popular 3D applications, such as Blender.
PLY files support per-vertex color information. If your uploaded model contains color information, our tool will attempt to save this in the PLY file at the end of the conversion process.
The PLY file generated by our tool will be in the binary little endian format.
We aim to process all RAR to PLY 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 RAR file you submit to us. The resulting PLY 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 RAR 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 PLY file quickly.
Yes! Our RAR to PLY 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 RAR 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 RAR to PLY, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
