3DM Import for Alibre Design - Rhinoceros 3DM file import add-on for Alibre Design

3DM Import for Alibre Design
is a Rhinoceros (.3dm) file import add-on for Alibre Design®. This add-on gives Alibre Design the ability to import mesh data from 3DM files.

3DM Import for Alibre Design reads polygon mesh stored in 3DM files and imports it into Alibre Design. A polygon mesh in a 3DM file is comprised of a set of triangular/quad faces. 3DM Import for Alibre Design creates trimmed planar surfaces for each triangle/quad and knits them together to create a solid body.

3DM Import for Alibre Design is very easy to use as it adds new commands to Alibre Design. It also adds a submenu to the Alibre Design menu called "3DMImport" containing these new commands.

The 3DM File Format

The 3DM (3D Model) file format is the native file format of Rhinoceros, the NURBS modeling software from Robert McNeel & Associates. The OpenNURBS Initiative was founded by Robert McNeel & Associates in January 2000, with the sole purpose of providing CAD, CAM, CAE and computer graphics software users reliable methods for transferring 3D geometry between applications via the 3DM file format. TerrainCAD, our terrain generation, editing and modeling software, also uses the 3DM file format as its native file format.
