    Restrict the range of travel for a component

    I have an assembly that when I grab one part, the attached parts follow but the parts that are attached have a "set" range of travel. Inside NX (12) you can just pull the parts past the "max" range of travel with the move component tool. Is there anyway to set up a boundary so that the parts...

    NX12 pattern curve

    So I have some graduated markings that span a distance of 110mm and there is a dash every 5mm I sketch the first line and get "sketch fully constrained" but as soon as I pattern that linearly I get "sketch needs 440 constraints" any idea on why its not bringing my constraints along with the...

    NX 12 MOI (moment of inertia) section inertia tool.

    Thanks! Don't post on here much so I wanst sure where to post it. Thanks Blase

    NX 12 MOI (moment of inertia) section inertia tool.

    So I need to do a section of inertia on a part that has a threaded hole that runs thru the entire part. when using the section inertia tool it has the option for solid or hollow. when you choose hollow it asks for a "hollow thickness" what thickness is it wanting exactly? the OD of the...

    Variable Helix

    It's a bone screw. The Tapered ID is only to strengthen the screw, The OD stays the same diameter. Thanks Blase

    Variable Helix

    So i got the Helix to follow the spline i have set for the minor Diameter, but its following the spline as if its the minor Diameter. The Major Diameter is constant but the minor is variable

    Variable Helix

    Toost, Thank you for the reply I'll give this a try and see what I come up with. I feel like i have tried Law curve and it says spline has multiple loops... not sure why it says that, but it errors out the helix. As for the version, I'm Running NX12.

    Variable Helix

    Hello, So im trying to add a Helix to a screw that has a MIN thread depth that runs at an angle for 11.2mm and then runs out straight for the remainder of the shank. I have attached a snip of the drawing. The line highlighted orange, is the spline i am trying to run the helix along. any idea on...
