What is an IPT file?

Autodesk Inventor Part File

AutoDesk Inventor is a 3D design and modeling system developed to provide support for designing and creating mechanical prototypes and trial models. It offers both visualization and simulation of products that can greatly help the manufacturers and model creators to conceptualize what they are making.

Projects created in Inventor are saved in IPT files, where IPT stands for Inventor Part File. An IPT file contains information for creating a single part of the mechanical prototype. In other words, Inventor part files are used to construct the bits and pieces, in a detailed and sophisticated manner, of one single structure or model per file.

After these bits and pieces are finished, they are ready to be assembled into a prototype product. A full product is stored in an IAM file, where IAM stands for Inventor Assembly, that references multiple IPT files.
