The PRT file extension is a 3D assembly that is used by several engineering CAD programs like Unigraphics NX. It stands for “Part” and can generally be thought of as an assembly of multiple shapes that can be manipulated in order to create a 3D object. PRT files are made up of data about the shapes in the assembly, which can include planes, surfaces, curves, and points.
Using PRT Files
PRT files can be used for several purposes and depending on the software used, they may have different functionality. Typically, PRT files contain parts and components for mechanical designs such as automobiles or machines. They are also commonly used in aerospace and robotics technology. PRT files can also be used to create products like bags, shoes, furniture pieces and many commercial products. To open or create PRT files it is necessary to use Unigraphics NX, or any software capable of viewing or manipulating 3D assemblies such as SolidWorks, Autodesk Inventor, CATIA, and Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire.
Similar File Extensions
Similar file extensions include: .DVX, .IGS, .CGR, .IGES, .STL, .PAR, .PEC.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .PRT) 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 .PRT 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 .PRT 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 .PRT 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 .PRT extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .PRT file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .PRT 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 .PRT file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .PRT file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .PRT file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
