Through Maxwell Studio
The Maxwell Render software package comes with a complete and An independent GUI application called Studio is available for extra flexibility. It is possible to import geometry and .MXS files into Studio, where you can compose your scene, set up lights, cameras, and environment parameters, create and apply materials, and send to render. Studio accepts geometry in the following formats: OBJ, STL, LWO, PLY, XC2, DXF, 3DS, XML, NFF, FBX, Collada, DEM, SDTS
The Studio workflow is mostly recommended to people working with 3D/ CAD applications that do not have a plug-in to directly connect them to Maxwell Render. Even if there is a plug-in available for your application, you can still make use of Studio by importing a MXS scene or geometry, and making further adjustments to your materials / cameras / lights. Or you can merge different .MXS files together into one scene.
There's also another possible workflow using Studio which involves synchronizing many common 3D formats through the Asset Reference Extension Object, allowing for simultaneous work on geometry in your 3d modelling application of choice and materials, lighting and rendering in Studio.
