    NX 5 Multi-roll plotter (HP DesignJet 4520)

    I found out part of the problem, but not a solution. When I looked at the output directly I saw that it was going into HPGL mode BEFORE inserting my init file. As far as I know you can't choose input trays in HPGL so I added the appropriate code (shown below) to go back into PCL mode, change...

    Tangent face mating

    I need to mate a sphere with a cone but I'm using NX2 and could not open the attached files. To simplify my assembly, assume that I need to mate a sphere (such as a ball bearing) with a countersunk hole where I should get a line of contact in the shape of a circle. I've tried mating, align...
