    batch translation export from NX11/Teamcenter

    We have NX11 and Teamcenter 11 (11.2.3.1_a01_4(20170824.00)) 64-bit. We need the ability to batch export STLs, Parasolids and STEPs for vendors. How are you doing this? 3rd party Software? Etc.?

    pattern, titleblock

    How is everyone importing, creating or using titleblocks. We still have a grip that imports a pattern, then prompts us to fill out the titleblock text. We really need to move to a modern system. What would you suggest?

    I just received a quote of $450/hr for NX modeling training for a few drafters. That seems high. What is the typical average per hour cost for remote NX modeling training?

    Where to find NX users or designers?

    I looked for career and job posts forums, but couldn't find it. If this post is inappropriate, I apologize. I am having trouble finding CADD talent in my region. Besides the corporate postings on career sites, we have posted in local tech and university career websites, I called professors I...

    we need to create a new user defined symbol with the name of an existing symbol. We created the .sbf file and dropped it in the UGII folder. We still get the old symbol. Any way to clean out NX cache or whatever is causing this?

    I need to create a symbol in NX11 with Teamcenter. I can create it in NX native and use the symbol. But in NX11 via teamcenter my symbols list does not show the new symbol. What does it take to get new symbols visible in NX11.0.2.7 when it runs through Teamcenter? Also, i need to get a .svg...

    NX Trainers

    I've recently become a manager of a small drafting team. I have a few drafters that only have 1 to 1.5 years in NX coming from Solidworks and they need advanced modeling training. I would prefer to send the team for class training at Siemens, but the two that need it the most are in Costa Rica...

    I am a manager of 3 Drafters and 1 Sr. Designer. The 3 drafters don't have a lot of experience with advanced NX modeling (i am not including surfacing). Our project work has slowed greatly, so i would like to fill time with online training for NX 11 modeling. With the current covid financial...

    NX8 to 3D PDF

    We recently upgraded from NX5 to NX8 (8.0.3.4). With NX5, we could create translucent 3D PDFs using "Adobe pro extended 9" to directly open NX5 files. NX8 is not supported by Adobe pro extended 9. We can still create 3D PDFs from STLs, but they are not translucent. Does anyone know of any NX8...

    I have set my defaults, but when I start a new part, the defaults are not correct. I can “load all defaults” in annotation preferences and my defaults will load. I need the defaults to load into a new NX8 part automatically. How do I get the defaults to load in a new NX8 part?
