NX2 3D faceted spatial volume data
File type: 3d graphics, CAD-CAM-CAE file
A TSO file contains 3D faceted spatial volume data used by NX, Siemens' lifecycle product development software.
The format is associated with the older NX2 software.

The TSO file extension is associated with NX2, a lifecycle product development application originally produced by UGS Corporation.
TSO files store 3D faceted spatial volume data for use in NX-related workflows. They are part of the data produced and used by the NX software rather than general-purpose 3D model files.
Siemens acquired UGS Corporation and continued development of the product as NX. NX runs on Microsoft Windows. At the time of the original record, the latest identified version was NX7. TSO is a legacy format associated with NX2, so support can depend on the NX release used.
Use Siemens NX on Microsoft Windows to open a TSO file. Because the format is associated with NX2, an older compatible NX release may be required.
Open the file in a compatible version of Siemens NX and use NX's export functions to save the data in a format supported by the target workflow.
