The IPT file extension is a 3D part file created by Autodesk Inventor, a 3D mechanical design software used in the CAD industry. The IPT files store the parts of an assembly model, which can include mechanical components such as pipes, tubes, wires, and other forms of parts used for 3D modelling. An IPT file is comprised of a single component, which when included in an assembly will make up a multi-part model. It typically contains the settings for the parameters of each component for use in the assembly, such as the part's dimensions and related measurements.
Similar File Extensions
Other CAD file formats support by Autodesk Inventor include IAM, IDW, IAMX, IPN, IPT, and IPN.
Part Data
IPT files also contain reference geometry as part of its data content. This includes information about the components angles, lines, points, and surfaces that make up the 3D model. Additionally, a limit of 19 versions can be created from the same part. Each new version will save unique changes to the original part file that can later accessed from different assemblies. IPT files may also include other data such as part colour schemes, material information, and related design notes.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .IPT) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .IPT extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .IPT file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .IPT extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .IPT extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .IPT file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .IPT file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .IPT file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .IPT file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .IPT file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
