Free Online DAE Converter

This is our free-to-use DAE file conversion tool that can be used to convert your DAE file into any number of other 3D model formats. Our DAE converter will extract the 3D model geometry contained within your file and accurately convert it to the desired format without any loss of detail. Our DAE converter also has a batch processing mode whereby you may upload up to a maximum of 20 files to be converted in one go.

Select File(s)

Drag and drop your files here to upload or click the button above.
A maximum of 20 files can be converted at once.

Please note: Your DAE file file, when uploaded to our server, will be deleted 15 minutes after upload. Please download your converted DAE file file before this time.
Our DAE conversion tool supports converting to the following file types: 3MF, BLEND, FBX, GIF, GLB, MP4, OBJ, PLY, SKP, STL, VID, WEBP

Our DAE converter will extract the vertices, faces, and other geometric data that forms the structure of your 3D model and convert it to the requested format. If the selected format supports external texture files, these can be uploaded along with your DAE model file, and these will be processed accordingly.

DAE file information

Full Name	COLLADA - Collaborative Design Activity
Extension	DAE
Type	3D Model
Mime Type	text/xml
Format	Text

The Khronos Group created the DAE file, a 3D model file format. The format is an XML text-based format, storing the 3D model information in a standardized XML structure, ensuring it is easy to add additional features without introducing compatibility issues.

Many 3D editing applications support the importing and exporting of DAE files, including the popular 3D editor Blender.

Mesh Geometry

DAE files support mesh geometry along with various types of surface definitions, from simple triangles to full polygon meshes. It has support for face and vertex normals and texture coordinates too. Mesh elements defined within the XML structure can be shared between multiple 3D objects within the final rendered scene.

Materials

DAE files support mesh geometry and various types of surface definitions, ranging from simple triangles to full polygon meshes. It also supports face and vertex normals, as well as texture coordinates. Multiple 3D objects within the final rendered scene can share mesh elements defined within the XML structure.

DAE Converter Capabilities

As materials containing texture and color information are both supported by the DAE format, our tool will do its best to include these materials, including any texture files, in the converted file.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it free to use the DAE file conversion tools?

Yes, there is no cost to using our conversion tools.

Are there any DAE file conversion limits?

At this time, we do not have any usage limits other than the maximum of 20 file uploads per conversion run.

How long do I need to wait for my converted file to be completed?

The size of your DAE file will affect processing times, so please allow for this. For smaller files of around 5MB, our tools will aim to have it completed within a few seconds.

How is my DAE file converted, whats involved?

When you upload your file to our site, we use a set of bespoke conversion components to, as accurately as possible, convert your file to the requested format. When the conversion is complete you will see a download link with which to retrieve your converted file.

Is the DAE format suitable for 3D printing?

No. Most 3D printing slicer software will not support the DAE format. It is recommended to convert your DAE file to the STL format if you wish to 3D print it.
