Using JT based cacheless search

If you use CAD tools other than NX, you must install the Dispatcher Server and JtToBboxAndTso translator to create the necessary bounding box and TruShape data. You must also install the QSEARCH_process_queue service to create an index for spatial searches. Teamcenter reads the bounding box information from this index. Teamcenter stores the calculated TruShape data as a Trushape-Data named reference in a DirectModel dataset.

The accuracy of the search depends on the voxel size you configure in Teamcenter. A small voxel size provides more accurate search results, but the TruShape files are larger and the response times, slower.

Note: The bounding box and TruShape data generated for a JT dataset are ignored if an NX dataset exists for the same item revision.

On high performance hardware with a well-tuned database, Teamcenter can create bounding boxes for 1,000 parts to 5,000 parts per hour from JT data.
