- Description
- It is a 3D model file format developed by Stanford Computer Graphics Laboratory. PLY is mainly used to describe objects in a collection of polygons.
- 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.
