Group Description

A `.XMT_BIN` file is most commonly interpreted as a Parasolid binary transmit object containing solid and surface geometry directly from the Parasolid kernel, enabling cleaner transfers between Parasolid-based CAD systems by packaging the true model definition into a compact binary exchange file that can’t be understood in a text editor.

In common CAD workflows, Parasolid transmit data is packaged in two extension sets—text forms like `.x_t` or `.xmt_txt` and binary forms like `.x_b` or `.xmt_bin`—where `.x_b` is now standard but `.xmt_bin` still appears, and to open it you import into a Parasolid-supporting CAD/CAE tool; if that tool lists just `.x_b`, renaming `.xmt_bin` to `. If you have any questions regarding wherever and how to use XMT_BIN file description, you can get hold of us at our web site. x_b` usually lets it load successfully because both extensions point to the same binary Parasolid format.

With an `.xmt_bin` file, the essential action is loading its Parasolid-based solid and surface geometry into CAD or CAE applications, enabling you to examine the part, check measurements, generate drawings, or extend modeling inside Parasolid-supporting CAD, while also allowing import into simulation tools like ANSYS Workbench for meshing and physics analysis.

If Parasolid isn’t well supported on the receiving end—because their tool doesn’t fully support Parasolid—you can export to universal formats such as STEP AP214 for solid geometry or legacy IGES routes for surface-heavy models, or to mesh types like STL when needed, understanding that meshes lose true CAD fidelity; you can also import the geometry to run healing/repair operations before re-exporting, and an `.xmt_bin` is useful diagnostically to test whether issues persist after translation, helping pinpoint modeling vs. conversion faults.

The two simplest ways to open an `.xmt_bin` file are either importing it directly as a Parasolid file in software that already supports Parasolid or renaming it to a more commonly accepted Parasolid-binary extension when the file picker is being strict, with the first method using File → Open/Import and selecting Parasolid to load the solid/surface model properly, and the second method involving copying and renaming the file to `.x_b` so programs that hide `.xmt_bin` still accept it as the same binary Parasolid format.
