3MF to GLB Converter
Drop a .3mf file, the zipped, XML-based 3D Manufacturing Format used by modern slicers and CAD tools, and this tool unpacks it and parses the mesh data with three.js's 3MF loader. It then re-exports the result as a binary .glb file for the web, AR or game engines. Everything runs locally, so the model is never uploaded.

How it works
- 1
Drop or select a .3mf file.
- 2
The tool unpacks the zipped 3MF package and parses its mesh with three.js.
- 3
The mesh is re-exported as a single binary .glb file.
- 4
Preview the model and download the .glb.
A printing format, repurposed for the web
3MF modernizes STL for 3D printing with color, materials and a proper container format, but printer slicers remain its main audience. Converting to GLB opens the same model up to web viewers, AR previews and game engines.
Powered by three.js, right in the page
This tool uses three.js's own 3MF loader to unpack and parse the package and its GLTFExporter to write the GLB, loaded on demand via a dynamic import so the rest of the site stays fast for everyone else.
Frequently asked questions
What is a 3MF file?
3MF (3D Manufacturing Format) is a modern, zipped XML format designed to replace STL for 3D printing, able to carry color, materials and metadata alongside geometry in one package.
Why convert 3MF to GLB?
3MF is aimed at slicers and printers, not browsers or game engines; GLB packages the same mesh (plus any colors it carries) into the compact binary format those tools expect.
Are multiple objects or build items in the 3MF handled?
Yes, every mesh in the 3MF package is parsed and included in the exported scene.
Is my model uploaded anywhere?
No. Unpacking and conversion happen in your browser, so the file never leaves your device.
