.EXB File Extension

A .EXB file is a CAXA Draft, created by CAXA.

Open with CAXA CAD. Available for Windows.

What is a .EXB file?

The .EXB file extension is associated with a document created by CAXA, which is a software used for 3D CAD (Computer-Aided Design) modeling. This type of file contains 2D drawing views that are derived from 3D parts or assemblies. Essentially, if you have a complex 3D model of an object, the .EXB file will have the 2D drawings of different views or sections of that model. These drawings are crucial for understanding the design and for manufacturing purposes.

To open an .EXB file, you would typically use the CAXA CAD software, which is the program designed to work with these files. Other programs like IronCAD, which is another CAD software, can also open .EXB files. Additionally, there are versions of CAXA CAD available for iOS devices, allowing you to view these files on your iPhone or iPad.

However, it's important to note that there is a bit of confusion around .EXB files because they are also used by Evernote, a popular note-taking application. In the context of Evernote, an .EXB file stores all the information for an Evernote user on their local computer, including notes, attachments, and other account details. These files are not meant to be directly opened by users, and tampering with them could lead to loss of important data. They can become quite large over time as more information is stored.

For Evernote users who do not use the desktop application and rely solely on the web version, it is safe to delete .EXB files, as all their data is stored online. However, this will remove all locally stored account information. Evernote also offers an "on demand sync" feature to help manage the size of .EXB files by syncing data as needed rather than storing everything locally. This option can be found under Tools → Options → Synchronization in the Evernote app settings.

In summary, if you're working with 3D CAD models in CAXA, .EXB files are essential for viewing 2D drawings of your designs. If you're an Evernote user, .EXB files play a different role in storing your data locally, and you should be cautious about how you manage these files to avoid losing important information.
