I looked at the CAM_RESOURCE_DIR variable that I have modified and the location that I defined is listed inside parentheses. UGII_CAM_RESOURCE_DIR="M:\CONFIGURATION_CONTROL\Unigraphics Converted Data\Programming UG Part Files\Updates & Information\NX 9.0\resource\"
Also, you did restart NX...
We recently updated to NX9, and have ran into a problem with copying and pasting drawings on a fellow employee's computer. On my computer, I am able to copy and paste drawings, but on his computer, he can copy a drawing but when he tries to paste it there is no option to paste. Anybody have any...
We recently upgraded from NX7.5 to NX8.5 and noticed that they have added the ability to define the shank in a tool, which I really am grateful for, but we use Vericut to verfiy our programs and if a shank is defined they are not showing up in Vericut. I was wondering if anyone that also uses...
Here's the other pic, it didn't come thru in the first post.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=cc73b8dd-60f6-4d8f-a333-4224db2758d6&file=3dconnexion_NX_button_customization.png
I had this trouble before with a Space Explorer, I have attached two pics to show you how I fixed it. The path for the ugii_env.dat file says NX6.0 but just go to the same location under NX7.5...
I find that Groups work better than Layers in some cases, they can save time in having to dig thru the layers to find stuff. Just toggle the group on, and everything in that group is shown, the layer they are on dosn't even need to be turned on. Just remember Groups are added onto the Work Layer...
I think I have found a way you can get what you want. After generating the path you can right-click the operation and under Tool Path choose Edit, then you can go thru and change anything you want line by line, just double-click on the line in the Name section that you want, in the Motion...
One last thing, in Cutting Parameters, under the Connections tab is Feed on Short Moves toggled on, you can adjust the Max. Distance to try to get rid of those engages altogether so that it does the finish pass while it is already there instead of coming back to it. If this doesn't help then I...
Okay try turning on the Collision Check toggle that I described in my previous post, that will give you the yellow engage color on the axial move like in your first picture, then set your Approach feed to zero which should cause it to be output as a rapid move, then set your engage to your...
Set boundaries at the walls and then add the appropriate boundary stock if you need to stay away from the walls. We make a lot molds and dies and I would recommend a z level approach, such as start with any non-steep areas on the tops of the walls, then do the walls with floor stock to stay a...
Not sure if I'm understanding what you are after, but the axial engage move is the Approach, we set the Approach to a feedrate near the rate that the machine rapids at, so that the program posts with a G1 and feedrate but still travels at a rapid feed, then the Engage is set to the same as the...
Thanks for the informative post, Capn. It must be nice having so little to do in life that you feel it necessary to troll all possible forums spitting out negative thoughts in every direction.
You have so much negative to say about NX lets see your software!
