MCX (MICRO CADAM-X/6000 Model Data File) is a file extension associated with the CNC Software for PC-based modeling and drafting. MCX is a CAD/CAM file format used by the CADAM software package, which is a drawing and design application for Windows. This program is used primarily for 3D industrial modeling, architectural design and engineering drawings.
File Contents and Usage
MCX files are computer aided drawing files which may include text, geometry, sketches, annotations and other data. When opened by CADAM, these files may be accessed to view complex diagrams and drawings. They may also be used to generate 3D images, to create interactive documents and to perform parametric analyses. MCX files have an interactive layer attribute which can be employed to modify designs interactively in the form of editable objects.
Similar File Extensions
The MCX file format shares similar features to other CAD/CAM file extensions such as: .dwg, .dwt, .dxf, .nc1, .asn and .stl.
I. .dwg
II. .dwt
III. .dxf
IV. .nc1
V. .asn
VI. .stl
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .MCX) 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 .MCX 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 .MCX 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 .MCX 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 .MCX extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .MCX file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .MCX 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 .MCX file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .MCX file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .MCX file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
