What is a .IPT file?
IPT is a single-part 3D model from Autodesk Inventor. Created and opened by Inventor.
- Did you know
- Autodesk launched Inventor in 1999 as its parametric mechanical-design tool.
- An IPT stores not just the finished solid but the full feature history and parameters, so the model can be re-edited by changing a dimension.
- Inventor part files keep precise boundary-representation geometry and can also be opened and edited in Autodesk Fusion 360.
- What Analyser reads
- Identify CAD files and read header metadata: AutoCAD DWG (DXF now opens as a 2D drawing preview - see Diagrams), SolidWorks (SLDPRT, SLDASM, plus .sldreg Settings Wizard backups - release year, settings groups and the saved registry keys - and SOLIDWORKS Visualize .svap appearances and .svpj projects, opened as the ZIP packages they are), Fusion 360 (F3D), Inventor (IPT, IAM), Rhino (3DM) and Grasshopper (GH, GHX), SketchUp (SKP), 3ds Max, Cinema 4D, Houdini, ZBrush, Maya, CATIA, Eagle, and KiCad.
- Depth of analysis
- .IPT is an identification-grade format: Analyser recognises it from its bytes and decodes the header metadata it carries, rather than opening it in a full viewer. Formats that do get a full viewer are marked "Full" on the formats page.
- Open a .IPT file
- Drag a .IPT file onto the Analyser home page (or tap to pick one). It is identified entirely in your browser - nothing is uploaded, there is no account, and it works offline once installed.
