Project: HiCAD Interfaces

JTOpen

JT (Jupiter Tessellation) is a 3-D graphics format which is considered as an particularly compact, easy to display, yet very rich data format, that also supports data such as dimensions and tolerances. It is therefore very suitable for CAD-data processing applications.

JT export parameters

Insert BREP	If you activate this option, the exact geometry in the form of the older JT-BREPs ("Boundary Representation") instead of a tessellated triangular geometry will be output.
Detail level	This function determines how many accuracy levels of the JT model are to be output. Normally it will be sufficient to leave the value 1 unchanged.
File structure	Here, you specify the JT file structure: Monolithic, PerPart, FullShatter or Mimic)
Multisolids as assemblies	If you activate this option, isolated solids will be subdivided into several parts during export.

Further general settings can be defined in Configuration Management under Interfaces.

Please note:

A supplement to the JT interface is the XML-based accompanying format PLMXML, that allows a more detailed output of product structures and process data of complex assemblies, can be found in the Configuration Management underInterfaces > JT/PMXML.
In addition to the options selectable in this dialogue (the default values of which are defined in the Configuration Editor), you have the option to specify a JT configuration file in the in the Configuration Editor, which to be used for the export and overwrites all other settings.
An example configuration file can be found at /sys/cadfix/JTConfig/JT.cfg.
It is important for the use of HiCAD-Spoolers that in the configuration file the setting "autoNameSanitize" has been set to "false", as the Spooler could otherwise not recognize the changed file names.
