Which Shapr3D export formats can I use?

Use a format supported by both Shapr3D and Glossi. GLB, OBJ, STEP, IGES, STL, and USDZ are available in both systems. The available Shapr3D formats depend on your plan, so test a representative product and inspect scale, color data, and part organization after import.

Does Shapr3D design history transfer to Glossi?

No. Standard interchange files do not carry Shapr3D design history, constraints, or feature steps. Confirm scale, part names, material regions, and product-critical details after import.

File-based workflow

Create product renders and video from Shapr3D.

Q: How do I create product renders from Shapr3D?

Export the approved product from Shapr3D, upload it to Glossi, check scale and part organization, direct materials and lighting, save the required views, then render the image set.

Q: How do I make product videos from Shapr3D?

Bring the approved Shapr3D model into Glossi, prepare the product and scene, add product or camera motion, then render channel-ready clips from the same setup used for stills.

Approve the product in Shapr3D, then bring the model into Glossi. Direct materials, lighting, views, colorways, and motion from one live browser studio.

Shapr3D to Glossi

Bring an approved Shapr3D model into Glossi.Create renders and video from the same setup.

Shapr3D stays the product-design source. Glossi becomes the live studio where the team builds and reuses the visual setup.

01EXPORT

Choose the model the team needs.

Export the approved product or assembly from Shapr3D in a supported format.

02CHECK

Confirm the useful product structure.

Inspect scale, part names, selectable regions, and product-critical geometry after import.

03DIRECT

Set materials and lighting live.

Build the final surface treatment, backdrop, light, and composition while the scene responds.

04REUSE

Save views and build every format.

Keep approved cameras ready for stills, colorways, motion, and channel crops.

What you can make

Create the images and motion each channel needs.

Build the full output set around one prepared product instead of recreating the scene for each request.

Saved view

PRODUCT RENDERS

Render every approved angle

Save the front, side, detail, and hero cameras the team uses most.

COLORWAYS

Create controlled product options

Apply approved finishes while the scene and camera stay fixed.

Product turn

PRODUCT VIDEO

Add product or camera motion

Make product turns and directed clips from the same scene used for stills.

Render product pages, paid social, marketplaces, and campaign placements at the right ratio.

File workflow

Choose the export around the product data you need.

SUPPORTED OPTIONS

Start with GLB, OBJ, or STEP.

Shapr3D can export these formats along with 3MF, IGES, STL, USDZ, Parasolid, and its native format. Available formats depend on your Shapr3D plan. Choose a format Glossi supports based on the geometry, color data, and part organization the production team needs.

AFTER IMPORT

Check the product before you build the scene.

Confirm scale and orientation.
Check the part separation needed for material selection.
Review product-critical geometry and color data.
Rebuild final materials and lighting in Glossi where needed.

Questions

Create Shapr3D renders and video in Glossi.

Is there a native Glossi plug-in for Shapr3D?

No. Shapr3D to Glossi is a file-based workflow. Export a supported 3D file from Shapr3D, then upload it to your Glossi workspace.

How do I create product renders from Shapr3D?

Export the approved product from Shapr3D and upload it to Glossi. Check scale and part organization, set final materials and lighting, save the views you need, then render the image set.

How do I make product videos from Shapr3D?

Bring the approved model into Glossi, prepare the product and scene, then add product or camera motion. You can render clips from the same setup used for the still-image set.

Which Shapr3D export format should I use?

Choose a Glossi-supported format based on the geometry, color data, and part organization you need. GLB, OBJ, and STEP are practical options to test with a representative model. Inspect the result before using the path across a full product line.

Will Shapr3D materials look exactly the same in Glossi?

Do not assume that they will. Inspect the imported model, then set or refine product-critical materials and lighting in Glossi. Shapr3D’s official documentation does not promise that every Visualization material transfers through every 3D export.

Does Shapr3D design history transfer?

No. Standard interchange files do not carry Shapr3D design history, constraints, or feature steps. Keep Shapr3D as the design source and use Glossi for the production setup around the approved model.

Bring one Shapr3D model into the studio.

Use a representative product to confirm the file path, product structure, materials, and outputs your team needs.
