    Continuous Feature

    I have a machining fixture baseplate of 1800mm diameter by 50mm thick, the underside face mating to a machine bed has a flatness tolerance creating datum 'A'. On the top face there are 6 pillars with a flanged face mating to spot faces. To control the depth of the spot faces relative to each...

    Replace Component Drawing view problems

    Sorry, I meant 'Part' at the top of the Base View dialogue window to specify only one Part of the assembly to be visible in the view. My new assembly has different part numbers to the ones used previously.

    Replace Component Drawing view problems

    NX7.5 What is the procedure when after 'Replace Component' in the model file to update an existing Drawing. Views have been added using Base View - Add Part, the problem is, the existing views are referencing part numbers that have changed, and after the model update, the Drawing views are empty.

    General Tolerances

    BS8888 does call up BS EN 22768 which it states is identical to ISO 2768 and replaces BS4500. I work for a major UK Defence company, and by referring to BS8888 on the drawing, I must work to the relevant Tolerance Standard.

    db_Part_Description not showing

    NX 4.0.4.2 Teamcenter 2005 I am working on a large assembly, and need to load it with 'No Components' I have to search through sub-assemblies to find the parts to open. Some parts(not all) are listed in the ANT with the 'db_part_desc' the same as the 'Descritive Part Name' in this case an 8...

    Motion question

    NX4. Please see attached document for details. I intend to create a sequence for a presentation. Although Motion Application is available, I have no experience of using it, I thought this would be a quicker solution. Thanks. Andy

    Diameter Symbol

    NX 5.0.2.2 We use Part Attributes (thro File - Properties) to populate the Drawing with text; Drawing Title, Material etc. How can I add the Diameter Symbol in the Value of an Attribute. The text is Blockfont, but the $r input will not work. Andy

    Curve selection

    The profile was created from a Tesascan measuring machine linked to ProComposer software, the output is limited to DXF. The profile is part of a forming operation for deep drawn components and is 'hand finished' hence the irregular profile. The DXF profile is imported into NX, an undimensioned...

    Curve selection

    John, That works fine, thank you. Tim, I believe there is an issue with the selection filters for Extrude and Revolve commands, Extrude will pick the curves no problem, but I need to set the Curve Rule to Single Curve for the Revolve command. That's another page in the Tips & Tricks folder for...

    Curve selection

    Sorry, Your second question... no just these curves. BTW I did import them as curves and lines with the same result. Andy

    Curve selection

    NX 5.0.2.2 I have imported DXF curves into a part file that I need to revolve and unite with a model. Why is it that if I select the revolve icon first then try to select the curves, they are not 'pickable', yet, if I select the curves first and then the icon, I can proceed with no problem...

    Promotions or Wave

    The Nitrile washer is just a plain washer stamped out of a sheet with square corners all round. The reason I need to show deformation, is this assembly complete with other seals similarly deformed will create a closed volume that I need to define.

    Promotions or Wave

    NX5.0.2.2. I have a Nitrile washer when assembled into a 'cupped' tube with the force of a spring behind it would deform to suit the internal rad of the tube. The assembly of the spring when under load I can control with deformed part. In the past (NX3) I would use promotions for the washer. Is...
