Files with .MODEL extension are 3D modeling formats used by CATIA software. CATIA stands for Computer Aided Three Dimensional Interactive Application. It builds molds, dies and composites.
MODEL files were originally developed by Dassault Systèmes for their CATIA software. Versions 4 and below of CATIA save 3D models as .MODEL files. Version 5 saves models as .PART files.
To open a .MODEL file requires Dassault Systemes CATIA software on Windows or Linux systems. To convert to CATIA version 5 .PART format, open the .MODEL file in CATIA version 5 first. Then copy and paste contents into a blank .PART file.
.MODEL is a commonly used 3D modeling format. It can handle IGES, STEP and STL file data from other programs too. The .MODEL format stores geometric data – points, curves, surfaces and solids.
Files with .MODEL extension are most popular in China. They are often used on Windows 10 systems. Most people seeking info on .MODEL files use the Google Chrome browser. The associated developer is Dassault Systèmes.
