Convert XYZ to AMF Online
Convert XYZ to AMF in seconds. XYZ is a minimal plain-text point-cloud format; AMF's strength is this: carries color/material data beyond plain STL geometry. No software installation required — everything runs in your browser.

Why Convert XYZ to AMF?
XYZ's limitation: no structure, color, or metadata beyond raw coordinates. AMF's strength: carries color/material data beyond plain STL geometry — it doesn't share that constraint.
AMF is an XML-based additive-manufacturing format, built around 3D printing with color and material metadata, an early alternative to 3MF. Converting from XYZ — built around the simplest possible point-cloud export — just coordinates instead — closes that gap.
The short version: XYZ is optimized for the simplest possible point-cloud export — just coordinates, AMF is optimized for 3D printing with color and material metadata, an early alternative to 3MF, and this converter exists for the moment those two needs don't line up.
How to Convert XYZ to AMF
- Upload your XYZ file.
- MiConvert converts it to AMF, aiming to preserve what makes AMF useful: carries color/material data beyond plain STL geometry.
- Download the converted AMF file.
- Use it directly with some legacy 3D-printing tools.
Key Conversion Features
- Keeps the parts of your file that matter for 3D printing with color and material metadata, an early alternative to 3MF intact, even though the source was built for the simplest possible point-cloud export — just coordinates
- Built to handle the real-world quirks of files meant for the simplest possible point-cloud export — just coordinates, not just a textbook version of the format
- Produces output ready for some legacy 3D-printing tools, picking up right where laser scanners and point-cloud tools left off
- Fast turnaround, typically under a minute per file
- No local software installation required for either side — not laser scanners and point-cloud tools, not some legacy 3D-printing tools — everything runs in the cloud

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a file size limit for this conversion?
Free conversions handle files up to 50MB; registered accounts get up to 100MB.
How long does the conversion take?
Most conversions finish in 10-30 seconds. Larger or more complex files can take up to a minute.
Why does AMF exist as a separate format instead of everyone just using XYZ?
Because they're built for different jobs — XYZ is aimed at the simplest possible point-cloud export — just coordinates, while AMF is aimed at 3D printing with color and material metadata, an early alternative to 3MF. Neither format is "better," they just fit different parts of a workflow.
Can I convert the file back from AMF to XYZ afterward?
Only what AMF actually carries can come back — anything specific to XYZ's role in the simplest possible point-cloud export — just coordinates that didn't survive the original conversion won't reappear.
Is this conversion free?
Yes — free for files up to 50MB, with a 100MB limit for registered accounts, no subscription required.
