SolidWorks Export Assembly Parts to XT
Batch export all unique parts in the active assembly to Parasolid .x_t format.
Prerequisites
- SolidWorks 2024+ with SwpilotCLI add-in installed
- .NET 8+ Runtime on the system
- Active SolidWorks assembly (.sldasm) must be open
What this Skill does
- Reads all top-level components from the active assembly
- Filters unique
.sldprt files (de-duplicated)
- Opens each part silently, exports to
.x_t, then closes it
- Outputs all
.x_t files to an xt/ subfolder next to the assembly file
- Restores the original assembly as the active document when done
When to use
- Batch export all parts in an assembly to XT format
- Preparing files for downstream CAD/CAM systems that require Parasolid
- For single-part export, use
ExportPartToXt instead
Quick start
dotnet run --project ./sup_tools/swpilotcli-export-assembly-parts-to-xt/scripts/ExportAssemblyPartsToXt/ExportAssemblyPartsToXt.csproj
Expected output:
Active document: MyAssembly.sldasm
Output folder: C:\Projects\MyAssembly\xt
Found unique part files: 5
OK PartA.sldprt -> PartA.x_t
OK PartB.sldprt -> PartB.x_t
...
Summary: exported=5, skipped=0, failed=0
Examples
Export all parts in active assembly
User: 把這個組合件的所有零件轉成 XT
Claude: I'll batch export all parts using this tool.
Check parts first, then export
User: 先查有哪些零件，再批次轉 XT
Claude: I'll use ListAssemblyParts first, then ExportPartToXt for each.
Reference
See API_REFERENCE.md for output schema and return codes.
Notes
- Output directory:
<assembly_dir>/xt/ (auto-created)
- Duplicate filenames get a
_2, _3 suffix automatically
- Parts already open in SolidWorks are not closed after export
- Execution time scales with number of parts
