About QVT files

The .QVT file is primarily a CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine) part program file created by Quality Vision International (QVI). These files store automated measurement routines, spatial coordinates, and inspection parameters used by metrology equipment to verify manufactured parts. A secondary, rarer use is the QlikView Theme File used by QlikView, a Business Intelligence (BI) software by QlikTech International, to store dashboard styling and UI configurations. The main disadvantage of the .QVT format is its highly proprietary nature. CMM files are locked to specialized metrology software like QVT Viewer, which is expensive and not widely accessible. They cannot be opened natively by web browsers, standard text editors, or mobile devices. Similarly, QlikView themes are useless outside the BI environment. Users often need to convert these files to share inspection results with clients or stakeholders who do not have the original software installed. The best target formats for CMM data are standard CSV for coordinate data or PDF for static inspection reports, though this export usually requires the original QVI software. Standard online converters fail with .QVT files because the format is closed and undocumented. This file format is difficult to open or convert for this exact reason. Emphasize that often only the original software can properly read or export the data. convert.guru can still identify the file format, inspect the file, and show text or internal content. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.

Convert.Guru analyzes your QVT file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted QMX, MP4 and VID files.

The QVT 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 QVT converter.
