CMB file
Term · Additive manufacturing and 3D printing · MLC-T-ADM-000074
A proprietary file format, standing for Coordinate Machine Binary, used to send build instructions to Stratasys 3D printers. It contains sliced 2D contour data, toolpath information, and machine control commands derived from a 3D CAD model. This binary format is generated by specific slicing software, such as GrabCAD Print or Insight, and is not as widely portable as standard formats like STL or 3MF.
