What is CATPART file?
CATPART file extensions indicate CAD files created specifically with CATIA V5, a type of Computer Aided Design (CAD) software from Dassault Systèmes. This CAD software is used for the design and creation of virtual 3D models as well as their production in industry fields like aerospace engineering, shipbuilding, and architecture. The software is comprised of multiple components that work together for a more comprehensive approach to creating complex 3D models. [ ⏩ ] CATPART file extension
How to convert the file from 3DMAP to CATPART?
To successfully convert the 3DMAP file to CATPART, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.3DMAP). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case CATPART (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than CATPART).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. 3DMAP to CATPART. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting 3DMAP files to CATPART files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension CATPART, while before this step we had the 3DMAP file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new CATPART file, or not.
