What type of files do you accept?

Last updated: 2026-04-09

Our Instant Quote system accepts STL and OBJ files—these formats are standard across most 3D modeling software and provide the fastest path to production.

For manual inquiries, we support a wide range of 3D CAD file types, including but not limited to:

3dm, 3dxml, 3mf, arc, asm, catpart, catproduct, catshape, cgr, dlv, exp, iam, iges, igs, ipt, jt, mf1, model, neu, par, pkg, ply, prt, psm, pwd, sab, sat, session, sldprt, step, stl, stp, stpz, u3d, unv, vda, vrml, wrl, wrz, x_b, x_t, xas, xmt, xmt_txt, xpr

Our team uses various software tools to translate these into printable formats. While we’re flexible, we strongly recommend submitting STL or OBJ files whenever possible for the fastest and most seamless experience. If you're not sure which format to use, you can always submit an inquiry and we’ll help guide you.
