    Moving from TeamCenter

    Since the question has been asked a few times, let me answer why we are moving away from TC. There are a few issues at hand, neither of which really has to do with the functionality of Team Center. First, the current hardware that we use as servers to support the system may be a little...

    Moving from TeamCenter

    Thanks Rick, unfortunately we are not still paying for maintenance on the system. I've had the same problem with the file names not quite being what I expected, as you said they are pretty crazy and impossible to figure out what they are. At this point we don't have a platform decided on to...

    Moving from TeamCenter

    I am currently using TeamCenter as the PLM system for NX designed components and assemblies. The company is planning to move to a different PLM software (though not yet decided on which) and wants to take everything that has been saved in TC engineering database and place it on a server for use...

    UG Part configurations

    Thank you all for your help. I will look into the reference sets a little more. I know the arrangement feature is only possible for assemblies. Anyway, thanks again.

    UG Part configurations

    I apologize, but the last post was more in lines for what I was trying to get at when I initially started this thread. I would agree with you that a broken view or simply a section view could possibly even work for what was described in the first post. I will look into the part family solution...

    UG Part configurations

    Thanks John, I think we're getting close. If I may offer another example; If I had a solid cylinder as the base part and wanted to add a configuration in the same file with the cylinder with a hole down the center, so that when I create the drawing I can have a view of the cylinder with out the...

    UG Part configurations

    Thanks John, that is close to what I'm looking for. But to give another example; this might make it a little more clear. Imagine that I have a 1/4-20 socket head cap screw that is 1/2" long as a basea model. Instead of making another part model for a 1/4-20 socket head cap screw that is 3/4"...

    UG Part configurations

    I need to be able to show in a drawing the internals to a part that gets modified. I also however need to show that same part, without the cut used to see inside, when placing it in an assembly view. I know in ProE this is called an instace of a part, or in SolidWorks its call a configuration of...

    Assembly

    I have an odd shaped component that I want to add to an assembly and locate it in a specific spot within the assembly. The easiest way I can think of doing this is to mate the component planes within the part itself as needed with the datums of the assembly. However, the datums of the assembly...
