Convert JT to 3DXML

What is JT file?

The .JT file extension is most commonly associated with the JT Open CAD software, a lightweight 3D modeling program developed by Siemens. This file format is an open source, neutral data format used to store and exchange 3D product models. JT Open CAD files are comprised of three-dimensional models with user attributes, detailed product geometry, and image data. JT Open CAD files are also used to represent product hierarchies and visual configurations. [ ⏩ ] JT file extension

What is 3DXML file?

The 3DXML file extension is associated with a 3D XML format used in various software developed by Dassault Systemes. The 3D XML format is an application of the XML language to 3D objects and it stores the data related to the coordinates, topology, geometry, materials and colors of 3D models. The 3D models are embedded in an XML document. This type of file is used for interchange data between different applications which supports 3D modeling as an integrated part of their functions.

How to convert the file from JT to 3DXML?

To successfully convert the JT file to 3DXML, 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.JT). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case 3DXML (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 3DXML).

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. JT to 3DXML. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.

Program for converting JT files to 3DXML 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 3DXML, while before this step we had the JT file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new 3DXML file, or not.
