White paper examines JT data format
White paper evaluates the sharing of design data throughout a product's lifecycle using the JT data format.
Cyon Research, a provider of analysis and consulting for engineering technology markets, has released a white paper that evaluates the sharing of design data throughout a product's lifecycle using the JT data format developed by PLM software supplier UGS The cost of poor interoperability has been valued at greater than the entire market capitalisation of the CAD industry annually

Jargon buster cuts through the ATEX jungle
ABB has published an "ATEX jargon buster" that helps motor users cut through the jungle of terms and definitions that make up the new ATEX Directives.
Cyon Research explores how JT addresses this problem.
Called The Business Case for a Common Data Distribution Platform: A Look at UGS' JT, it explores the issues of product and process design information in manufacturing firms.
This data is typically stored in a format that can only be read by the software program used to create the original files, and is not accessible to many organisation members who could benefit from it.
The paper examines how manufacturing organisations facilitate distribution of product and process design data to downstream activities of non-CAD users using JT.
In the white paper, Cyon discusses the use of JT as a standard for design, analysis and manufacturing interoperability throughout the PLM industry, as well as a basis for increasing the use of design data in areas beyond traditional engineering departments.
In addition, the study examines how UGS partnerships with companies such as Microsoft and Adobe will continue to increase this trend.
The study examines JT on the basis of its current and proposed uses and in comparison with other formats.
