Theorem Solutions' ‘CATIA 3DExperience to JT translator’ boasts new features, enhancements and more

Theorem Solutions' ‘CATIA 3DExperience to JT translator’, part of Theorem’s Visualize 3D product range, has a number of new product features and enhancements, alongside general updates to improve geometry quality.

V19.3 supports CATIA V6R2013x, 3DExperience R2014x, R2015x and R2016x and Jtk. 8.0. This uni-directional product can be licensed with Theorem’s ‘JT to CATIA 3DExperience Visualize 3D’ product to create a bi-directional translator.

Theorem’s Visualize 3D products are aimed at creating visualisation data for users of digital mock-up, virtual reality or desktop applications.

Based upon the Dassault Systemes strategic XCAD technology, this V19.3 release enables the CATIA 3DExperience user to create a JT representation of their data, and supports the translation of assembly structure, geometry, attributes, 3D Product Manufacturing Information (PMI) and metadata. In doing so, it facilitates Model Based Definition (MBD) processes containing sufficient information to manufacture and inspect products, without the need for 2D engineering drawings.

Sharing CATIA 3DExperience data using the neutral ISO standard JT format allows organisations to protect the intellectual property of their designs, while users can explore the shape more easily to understand the 3D definition. The IP protection is enhanced by restricting the JT representation to be tessellated data only.
