Convert SVG to 3MF
Convert a SVG file to 3MF in your browser. Free, no upload, no sign-up.
Convert SVG files to 3MF directly in your browser. The converter extrudes every filled shape in the SVG to the thickness you choose and writes the resulting solid as 3MF. Nothing is uploaded, there is no file size limit beyond your computer's memory, and the result downloads instantly. 3MF records the unit and can hold several objects with colors, so the model opens in the slicer at the right size without guessing.
How to convert SVG to 3MF
- 1Drop your SVG file
Drag a .svg file onto the box above or click to choose one. Filled paths are extruded; strokes, gradients, text elements that were not converted to outlines, and embedded raster images are ignored. Convert text to paths in your vector editor first.
- 2Set the extrusion depth
Enter how thick the 3D shape should be in millimeters before dropping the file, or change it and reconvert.
- 3Check the preview
The model renders in 3D so you can confirm it loaded correctly. Dimensions, volume and triangle count are shown next to it; open edges are flagged if the mesh is not watertight.
- 4Download the 3MF
Adjust the export options if needed and click download. The exported file declares millimeters as its unit and contains the mesh as a single object.
What is a SVG file?
SVG is the standard 2D vector format. It has no depth, so converting it to a 3D format means extruding the filled shapes into solids of a chosen thickness. This is how logos, text, cookie cutters, keychains and signs are turned into printable models.
Commonly used by: Illustrator, Inkscape, Figma, logo files, laser cutting

What is a 3MF file?
3MF is the modern replacement for STL, published by the 3MF Consortium (Microsoft, Autodesk, HP, Prusa and others). It is a ZIP archive containing XML that stores units, colors, materials, multiple objects and print settings. Slicers such as Bambu Studio and PrusaSlicer use it as their project format.
Commonly used by: Bambu Studio, PrusaSlicer, Cura, Windows 3D Builder, Fusion 360
