PLY 3D Format PLY Converter
The Polygon (PLY) file format, also known as the Stanford Triangle Format, is a 3D file format developed by Stanford University to store 3D scan data. It’s useful for storing detailed 3D mesh data from photogrammetry or scans, storing per-vertex information such as colours, transparency, texture coordinates and surface normals. The data can be stored in an ASCII or binary format, making the file flexible and easy to use; just choose the binary format for smaller file sizes and quicker loading, and the ASCII format for human readability and easy editing.
PLY files can be opened by software applications like Blender, MeshLab, Autodesk Meshmixer, and other 3D printing tools. They can also be run on macOS, Windows and Linux, making PLY a flexible format. Just keep in mind that PLY files have no native animation support, so if you need to store animation data, you may want to look for a different file format.

3MF 3D Format 3MF Converter
The 3D Manufacturing Format (3MF) is an XML-based file that stores information useful for 3D printing. It was developed and established by the 3MF Consortium with the goal of efficiently storing 3D printing data to be used across many different pieces of software. As 3D printing has become more effective and prevalent, a more standardised file type was necessary. Although the STL file format is more widely used among legacy and hobbyist users, 3MF is quickly becoming the industry choice for modern use cases.
If you just want to view the file, Windows has a built-in app called Windows 3D Builder that will do the trick. If you want to edit a file before you print it, 3MF can be used with software such as Microsoft 3D Builder, Autodesk Fusion 360, and SOLIDWORKS.
