❓ How can I convert files from 3MF to STL?

First you need to add file for conversion: drag and drop your 3MF file or click the "Choose File" button. Then click the "Convert" button. When 3MF to STL conversion is completed, you can download your STL file.
⏱️ How long does it take to convert 3MF to STL?

Mesh conversion is pretty fast. You can change 3MF to STL in a few seconds.
🛡️ Is it safe to convert 3MF to STL on AnyConv?

Of course! We delete uploaded files immediately, and converted ones after 1 hour. No one has access to your files. File conversion (including 3MF to STL) is absolutely safe.
💻 Can I convert 3MF to STL on Mac OS or Linux?

Yes, you can use AnyConv on any operating system that has a web browser. Our 3MF to STL converter works online and does not require software installation.

Information about 3MF and STL file formats

🔸 File format	3MF	STL
🔸 Full name	3D Manufacturing Format	Stereolithography File Format
🔸 File extension	.3mf	.stl
🔸 MIME type	application/vnd.ms-package.3dmanufacturing-3dmodel+xml, application/vnd.ms-printing.printticket+xml, model/3mf	model/stl, model/x.stl-ascii, model/x.stl-binary
🔸 Developed by	3MF Consortium	3D Systems
🔸 Type of format
🔸 Description	3D Manufacturing Format or 3MF is an open-source file format standard developed and published by the 3MF Consortium. 3MF is an XML-based data format designed for using additive manufacturing, including information about materials, colors, and other information that cannot be represented in the STL format.	STL is a file format native to the stereolithography CAD software created by 3D Systems. Many other software packages support this file format. It is widely used for rapid prototyping, 3D printing, and computer-aided manufacturing. STL files describe only the surface geometry of a three-dimensional object without representing color, texture, or other common CAD model attributes. The STL format specifies both ASCII and binary representations. Binary files are more common since they are more compact.
🔸 Technical details	Today, CAD software-related companies such as Autodesk, Dassault Systèmes, and Netfabb are part of the 3MF Consortium. Other firms in the 3MF Consortium are Microsoft, SLM, and HP, while Shapeways are also included to give insight from a 3D Printing background. In addition, other key players in the 3D printing and additive manufacturing business, such as Materialise, 3D Systems, Siemens PLM Software, and Stratasys, have recently joined the consortium. To facilitate the adoption, 3MF Consortium has also published a C++ implementation of the 3MF file format.	An STL file describes a raw, unstructured triangulated surface by the unit normal and vertices (ordered by the right-hand rule) of the triangles using a three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system. All STL coordinates were required to be positive numbers in the original specification, but this restriction is no longer enforced, and negative coordinates are commonly encountered in STL files today. As a result, STL files contain no scale information, and the units are arbitrary.
