NX Need a way to create a jt file with B-Rep only

We have a workflow where we create data in NX and save it to Teamcenter. Now we want to create a .jt file with no tessellation and B-Rep only. Is this possible?

Solution

 Yes, there are 2 ways to accomplish this.


1. Go to <install_path>Siemens\NX 11.0\PVTRANS and edit tessUG.config in a text editor. Then in the top section called EAITranslator, add this setting at the end:


includeGeom = false


This will create jt files with no tessellation and B-Rep only.


2. The other option is to load the jt data into standalone TcVis > Tools > Part Edit. Then go to Part Edit > Control tab > RMB on the LODs > Delete:


Then go to File > Export > and now you can export a .jt file with B-Rep only.
