Here are 2 simple steps to convert your PLY to XYZ using our fast and free PLY converter tool.
| Extension | PLY |
| Full Name | Stanford Triangle Format |
| Type | 3D Model/Point Cloud |
| Mime Type | application/octet-stream |
| Format | Text |
| Opens With | Blender, MeshLab |
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 and also 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.

When converting 3D Model/Mesh files using our [ey] converter we will attempt to convert color materials into a suitable format for use in the converted file.
| Extension | XYZ |
| Full Name | Point Cloud |
| Type | 3D Model/Point Cloud |
| Mime Type | text/plain |
| Format | Text |
| Opens With | MeshLab |
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 Converter Capabilities
When converting your PLY to XYZ our tool will attempt to accurately convert any color/material information.
Your PLY file will be converted to a XYZ file using our unified 3D model and mesh conversion tool. Our PLY 3D tool performs accurate conversions of 3D elements such as vertices, faces, normals and relevant material information. As both PLY and XYZ support color material information our tool will also attempt to convert the color information too.
First click the "Upload..." button, select your PLY file to upload. Your PLY file will be uploaded to our servers. When the PLY to XYZ conversion has completed, you can download your XYZ file straight away.
We aim to process all PLY to XYZ conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds however this can be longer for certain files, so please be patient.
Our PLY conversion tool can convert most Point Cloud vertex data to the XYZ format without any loss of detail.
