PRT file stores a component of a 3D CAD object drawing. PRT files can contains lines, surfaces, textures, dimension, and descriptions. PRT project component files can be assembled to recreate the complete project and that saved as an assembly file with .ASM extension.
Files with .CATPART extension contain 3D CAD/CAM/CAE model parts and structured data associated with them. CATPART files are saved in a proprietary format developed by CATIA. CATPART files constitute a larger project or a functional element of such project created using CATIA V5.
After converting the file to the new format, you will be able to use other programs to support it. Keep in mind, however, that the PRT file after converting to CATPART may differ slightly from the original. The most important information should be kept, but if you want the file after conversion from PRT to CATPART to be the same, you have to do this carefully and choose the proper application from the list below.
There is no guarantee, of course, that the conversion will come up to all your expectations, but it will certainly help you. If, after all, the effect of converting PRT to CATPART does not meet your expectations, you can simply try to find on the Internet a different version of your file in PRT format, properly converted to a CATPART file by someone else. If this fails, use the information provided in the further part of the website.
If after converting the file PRT the desired result was not achieved, you can try to change the format of PRT file to other than CATPART. On our website you will find more information on the following conversion options
Unfortunately, if after performing the two previously described steps (trying to find your PRT file converted by someone else, and the attempt to convert it to CATPART on your own) you still have a problem with your file, then there are only a few solutions left. You can once again try to find and install an application that can open the PRT file in its original format (without conversion to CATPART file). Such a solution will be difficult to implement, but it certainly will give the best result.
