Introduction
The purpose this call is to . . .
• Update existing customers on the latest features in the upcoming release and solicit Beta Testers (when applicable)
• Provide a glimpse of what’s coming in new releases
• Answer submitted questions of general interest to the user community
These calls will be aligned with major (i.e. 10.0), point (i.e. 10.1), and service pack (i.e. 10.1.1) Teamcenter releases

LPM & APM Unilateral / Unequal Bilateral Zone
• Supported zone types include: • Bilateral, • Unilateral / unequal bilateral • Limit
• Planes / slots / tabs: enable the application of unilateral, unequal bilateral, and limit zones for linear plus and angular minus tolerance zones
• Holes / Pins: • Enable the application of unilateral,
unequal bilateral, and limit zones for linear plus minus tolerance zones only
• Only bilateral tolerance zones will be valid for angular plus minus tolerances
