Our free and fast tool will convert your 3D WRL (Virtual Reality Modeling Language) model files to a standard DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) file that can then be edited further in most popular 3D editing packages or 3D printed without any further processing. Our conversion tool can also batch convert multiple WRL files; up to 200 files at a time can be converted.
To convert your WRL file, click the Upload button above and select the file to convert. Once selected, the file will be converted to a DXF file and will be ready for download shortly afterwards. For more information about the WRL to DXF conversion process, see the conversion information section below.

The WRL file format is a 3D-based model format originally created in the 1990's that was aimed at website usage. The format is text-based and contains 3D geometry data such as vertices, faces, simple shapes, material information, and more.
This format, when launched, was hoped to become a standard 3D format; however, due to the large file sizes, it didn't see wide adoption, although it is a supported format within some CAD software applications. It was later superseded by the X3D file format, which shares most of the functionality of WRL files.
If your WRL file contains textures, these will be ignored. If a material contains color information, this will be translated where possible.

The DXF file format was first introduced in 1982 as part of Autodesk's AutoCAD software. DXF files were intended at the time to allow data interchange between AutoCAD and other CAD-related applications. The format has evolved over the years, with the most recent version coming in 2007.
DXF files can contain either text or binary content describing blocks, entities, objects, and other information using a "tagging" system. The DXF format is still popular today and can be opened with most popular CAD applications.
Many 3D file conversion websites use the same off-the-shelf components to convert files, these often lack features and full WRL file compatibility. Our bespoke file conversion tools offer full WRL 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 WRL file quickly and accurately with maximum compatibility.
First click the "Upload..." button, and select your WRL file to upload. You can also drag and drop your file onto the tool. Once your file is selected, you can set any configuration options. When the WRL to DXF conversion has completed, you can download your DXF file straight away.
We aim to process all WRL to DXF 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 WRL file you submit to us. The resulting DXF file, once created, is stored for 4 hours 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 WRL 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 DXF file quickly.
Yes! Our WRL to DXF 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 WRL conversion tool please consider white-listing our website. When an Ad Blocker is enabled there are some conversion limits and some settings may not be available when using our tools. Processing/conversion and download times will also be longer.
Yes. When you have converted your WRL to DXF, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
