Convert Your 3D Mesh/Model XYZ Files to 3MF

Our free and fast tool will convert most 3D mesh or XYZ (Point Cloud) model files to a standard 3MF (3D Manufacturing 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 XYZ files; up to 25 files at a time can be converted.

To convert your XYZ file, click the Upload button above and select the file to convert. Once selected, the file will be converted to a 3MF file and will be ready for download shortly afterwards. For more information about the XYZ to 3MF conversion process, see the conversion information section below.

How to Convert your XYZ to 3MF Online?

Here are two simple steps to convert your XYZ to 3MF.

Upload a XYZ

Click the "Upload a XYZ File" button and select a XYZ to upload. The maximum file size is 100MB.

Download your 3MF

Click the download link once completed to receive your 3MF file.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I convert my XYZ file to 3MF?

First click the "Upload..." button, select your XYZ file to upload. Select any configuration options. When the XYZ to 3MF conversion has completed, you can download your 3MF file straight away.

How long does it take to convert my XYZ to 3MF?

We aim to process all XYZ to 3MF 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 XYZ to 3MF 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 XYZ to 3MF on ImageToStl.com?

Yes, of course! We do not store the XYZ file you submit to us. The resulting 3MF file, once created is deleted 15 minutes after upload and the download link will expire after this time.

Can I convert XYZ to 3MF on Windows, Linux, Android, iOS or Mac OS?

Yes! Our XYZ to 3MF 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 XYZ 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 XYZ files; can I batch convert my XYZ to 3MF?

Yes! Our XYZ tool supports full batch conversions. You can upload up to 25 and XYZ files at a time. Our tool will convert them all as quickly as possible. Once completed, you can either download the 3MF files individually or download them all in a single ZIP file.

Description

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

The XYZ file format was designed to store vertex information only to allow the construction of simple Point Cloud models.

Description

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.

3MF Notes

3MF files support material and color information. If your uploaded model contains color information, our tool will attempt to save this in the 3MF file at the end of the conversion process. Textures are supported and will be included in the final 3MF file.

Supported Features

  • Mesh geometry
  • Face and vertex colors
  • Textures
