Type | 3D Model |
Mime Type | application/octet-stream |
Format | Binary |
Opens With | Blender |
The BLEND file extension is the native 3D modelling file format of the ever-popular Blender 3D modelling software. The Blender format originally came into existence in late 1994 and has since evolved into the advanced 3D format we have today.
The format stores complex 3D mesh data along with textures, animations, lighting, and other information related to 3D scene rendering. The format is popular among those creating 3D videogame graphics and animation sequences due to its advanced features and ease of use.
Along with Blender, BLEND files can also be imported into other popular 3D editing software. The open-source nature of the format allows third-party plugins and scripts to be created to run within the Blender editing environment and extend the format's capabilities.

When converting 3D Model/Mesh files using our BLEND converter we will attempt to convert color materials into a suitable format for use in the converted file.
Extension | 3MF |
Full Name | 3D Manufacturing Format |
Type | 3D Model |
Mime Type | application/vnd.ms-package.3dmanufacturing-3dmodel+xml |
Format | Binary |
The 3MF file format was created as a standard storage medium for 3D models for use within the area of 3D printing. A 3MF file will contain 3D model data stored within an XML-formatted document with additional assets such as image previews and material data. These files are wrapped up within a compressed ZIP file (using the 3MF extension).
The 3MF format was created in response to the constraints of the STL format, which is the most popular format for storing 3D printable models. Unlike the STL format, which can only store triangular information, the 3MF format can store mesh geometry along with material, units of measurement, and other relevant 3D printing information that is impossible to store within an STL file.
Storing the 3D data within a ZIP file container ensures the file size is kept to a minimum while making it easily extendable in the future. 3MF files are widely supported by 3D printing slicer software and are a common export option within 3D editing software.
3MF Converter Capabilities
When converting your BLEND to 3MF our tool will attempt to accurately convert any color/material information.
Your BLEND file will be converted to a 3MF file using our unified 3D model and mesh conversion tool. Our BLEND 3D tool performs accurate conversions of 3D elements such as vertices, faces, normals and relevant material information. As both BLEND and 3MF support color material information our tool will also attempt to convert the color information too.
First click the "Upload..." button, select your BLEND file to upload. Your BLEND file will be uploaded to our servers. When the BLEND to 3MF conversion has completed, you can download your 3MF file straight away.
We aim to process all BLEND to 3MF conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds however this can be longer for certain files, so please be patient.
We aim to provide the best conversion experience. Our tools are under constant review and development with new features being added every week.
