How create or Export Empty JT files in native NX?

Some users are creating empty parts (No geometry) in that case JT is not generating and this is a problem for later processes in the customer’s environment.

We would like to know how we can create empty JT files (which do not have any geometry).

Solution

To create an Empty JT for the part file without any geometry in the native NX you have to set the structureOption = "MULTICAD" in tessUG.config file and set UGII_GENERATE_MULTI_CAD_JT=1 environment variable

Once done restart NX, then you have to use the File > Save > Save Option and Enable "Save JT Data" and then Save the part file without any geometry and it will create an Empty JT in the same location where you have your part file located. See to the below snapshot-


Or, you can use the command line utility run_ugtopv to export the JT by updating the tessUG.config with the below options-

   structureOption = "MULTICAD"

  writeWhichFiles = "JTPARTS,PLMXML"

Sample syntax to export JT -

C:\apps\Siemens\NX2206\PVTRANS>run_ugtopv C:\JT\Test\model1.prt -force_output_dir=C:\JT\Test
