Convert GLTF to AMF via Python

Render GLTF as AMF without any 3D modeling and rendering software.

How to Convert GLTF to AMF Using Python

In order to convert GLTF to AMF, we’ll use

Aspose.3D for Python via .NET

API which is a feature-rich, powerful and easy to use document manipulation and conversion API for Python. Open

NuGet

package manager, search for Aspose.3D and install. You may also use the following command from the Package Manager Console.

Command line
pip install aspose-3d

Steps to Convert GLTF to AMF via Python

Python programmers can easily load & convert GLTF files to AMF in just a few lines of code.

Load GLTF file via the from_file of Scene class
Create an instance of AmfSaveOptions
Set AMF specific properties for advanced conversion
Call the Scene.save method
Pass the output path with AMF file extension & object of AmfSaveOptions
Check resultant AMF file at specified path

System Requirements

Before running the Python conversion code, make sure that you have the following prerequisites.

Microsoft Windows or Linux based OS.
Python 3.5 or later.
Aspose.3D for Python referenced in your project.

A 3D File Processing Library to manipulate 3D files without any modeling and rendering software. The 3D API supports Discreet3DS, WavefrontOBJ, FBX (ASCII, Binary), STL (ASCII, Binary), Universal3D, Collada, glTF, GLB, PLY, DirectX, Google Draco file formats and more. Developers can create, read, convert, modify and control the substance of 3D document formats easily.

GLTF What is GLTF File Format?

glTF (GL Transmission Format) is a 3D file format that stores 3D model information in JSON format. The use of JSON minimizes both the size of 3D assets and the runtime processing needed to unpack and use those assets. It was adopted for the efficient transmission and loading of 3D scenes and models by applications. glTF was developed by the Khronos Group 3D Formats Working Group and is also described as JPEG of 3D by its creators. The format defines an extensible, common publishing format for 3D content tools and services that streamlines authoring workflows and enables interoperable use of content across the industry. The intention behind the creation of glTF file format was to define an extensible, common publishing format for 3D content tools and services that should streamline authoring workflows and enable interoperable use of content across the industry. It minimizes runtime processing by applications using WebGL and other APIs.

amf What is amf File Format?

Additive Manufacturing file format (AMF) defines open standards for objects description in order to be utilized by additive manufacturing processes such as 3D Printing. CAD programs use the AMF file format by making use of the information such as geometry, color and material of the objects. AMF is different than STL format as the lateral does not support color, materials, lattices, and constellations.
