About MTB files
The .MTB file extension is heavily fragmented across different industries. Most commonly, it functions as a sheet metal material data file for AutoForm engineering software or as a binary motion tracker data log for Xsens devices using MT Manager. You will also encounter .MTB files as game mods in Rolling Line, where they are actually standard .ZIP archives in disguise. Similarly, MultiTimer exports its board data as .MTB files using standard .XML formatting. The main challenge with .MTB files is their proprietary nature. Engineering and motion-tracking files are closed binary formats. You cannot open them in a standard text editor. They require specific, highly expensive proprietary software like AutoForm to read or export the data. This creates a severe lock-in effect where sharing material properties or motion data with clients who lack these licenses is nearly impossible. Ideally, you should export these files to open formats like .CSV for motion data or standard .XML for configuration settings to ensure accessibility. Because standard converters fail on proprietary binaries, you need specialized tools. We can inspect the file, and if our analysis detects a supported underlying format like .ZIP or .XML, viewing or extraction is absolutely possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your MTB file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

The MTB Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our MTB converter.
