Viewer for NX (parasolids)
Viewer for NX (parasolids)
(OP)
Hello,
My office runs NX 7.5.4.4 windows 64 bit. Can the viewer be installed without installing the rest of NX? If not where can I find a free viewer to demonstrate some parasolids?
Thank you!

Although there are some parasolid viewer freeware you can find on web.i presume most of them are basically demo versions only.
But shall i ask you a question..Is there any reason for not considering JT for visualization purpose? That too when JT supports a number of data objects you can visualize like for ex. PMI and also enables you doing sectioning/mark-ups and measurements.
Infact if you are really interested you can explore JT2GO application which is free of cost.(as far as my knowledge is concerned). You can do basic 3-d sectioning along with PMI viewing and doing precise measurements with the latest JT2GO version.

I'm not sure of the "nuts & bolts" of it, but I am not running Teamcenter itself and only have the VisView portion installed.

Also of interest is that as of this past December, JT has been accepted by and published as the first ISO '3D Visualization' standard:
http://blog.industrysoftware.automation.siemens.co...
We've already gotten assurances from various organizations, including competitors, that with this blessing from ISO will come a broader acceptance and support of JT as a true 3D Visualization standard for the industry. Therefore, we should expect to see even more tools and products which both accepts and produces 3D data using the JT standard.

PCF files are created when you use File-Send to Package File.
Using this option will automatically open ExpresReview (after you installed it, free download from GTAC) and display your data. It will even create CGM files of any drawings embedded withing the assembly/part you exported. You then save this PCF file and anyone with the ExpresReview software can view this data.
Using the PCF option also allows you to measure and cut sections which you loose when opening JT files alone.
Main thing is that the Teamcenter visualization costs money whereas ExpresReview is free.
