SolidWorks General Table Template Format | Dassault Systemes | Vector Image Files |
The SLDDRT (SolidWorks Sheet File) file type is used as a document format native to the SolidWorks design suite software. It is a computer-aided design (CAD) file developed by Dassault Systèmes. A SLDDRT document contains two-dimensional “sheet metal” models, which are typically prepared for forming and manufacturing operations.
File Structure
A SLDDRT document is written in text-based ASCII format, and contains data that describes the geometry, dimensions and properties of the modeled objects. The object data is extensively cross-referenced and organized with accompanying instructions that direct the SolidWorks engine. Additionally, related technical instructions and graphic objects may be enclosed within the file depending on user specifications.
Similar File Types
The CAD documents in SolidWorks have a range of common file types, including .SLDPRT, .SLDASM, and .SLDDRW. While these files are all specific to the SolidWorks software, some third party programs may support the platform through use of an import plug-in. For example, many Autodesk applications have an available plugin which enables users to read and manipulate SLDDRT documents within their own design suites.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .SLDDRT) 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 .SLDDRT 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 .SLDDRT 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 .SLDDRT 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 .SLDDRT extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .SLDDRT file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .SLDDRT 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 .SLDDRT file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .SLDDRT file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .SLDDRT file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
