The 3DM document files are related to Rhino 3D. 3DM file is an OpenNURBS 3D Model. The openNURBS Initiative provides CAD, CAM, CAE, and computer graphics software developers the tools to accurately transfer 3-D geometry between applications. It seems there's no direct way to import.3DM files. However, according to this tutorial you can export from Rhino as.LWO (Lightwave) or.3DS (3D Studio). Both can be imported to Blender.STL export is also an option, I suppose. Importing to Rhino from Blender should be easier using same formats. Rhino 3D models for download, files in 3dm with low poly, animated, rigged, game, and VR options. If you do not have a cad program, and want to simply view a cad file, use this link and follow the prompts, or watch the video for a short how to.

Explore frequent use casesWhat is Rhino format?
Rhinoceros (typically abbreviated Rhino, or Rhino3D) is a commercial 3D computer graphics and computer-aided design (CAD) application software. Rhinoceros geometry is based on the NURBS mathematical model, which focuses on producing mathematically precise representation of curves and freeform surfaces in computer graphics (as opposed to polygon mesh-based applications).Rhinoceros is used in processes of computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), rapid prototyping, 3D printing and reverse engineering in industries including architecture, industrial design (e.g. automotive design, watercraft design), product design (e.g. jewelry design) as well as for multimedia and graphic design.The Rhinoceros file format (.3DM) is useful for the exchange of NURBS geometry. The Rhino developers started the openNURBS Initiative to provide computer graphics software developers the tools to accurately transfer 3-D geometry between applications. An open-source toolkit, openNURBS includes the 3DM file format specification, documentation, C++ source code libraries and .NET 2.0 assemblies to read and write the file format, on supported platforms (Windows, Windows x64, Mac, and Linux).

Naturally, other applications may also use the .3dm file extension. Even harmful programs can create .3dm files. Be especially cautious with .3dm files coming from an unknown source!
Can't open a .3dm file?
When you double-click a file to open it, Windows examines the filename extension. If Windows recognizes the filename extension, it opens the file in the program that is associated with that filename extension. When Windows does not recognize a filename extension, you receive the following message:
Windows can't open this file:
example.3dm
To open this file, Windows needs to know what program you want to use to open it. Windows can go online to look it up automatically, or you can manually select one from a list of programs that are installed on your computer.
To avoid this error, you need to set the file association correctly.
- Open Control Panel > Control Panel Home > Default Programs > Set Associations.
- Select a file type in the list and click Change Program.
The .3dm file extension is often given incorrectly!
