Hi everyone. I am trying to wrap my head around the simulation tools in NX 11 but unfortunatelly I cannot get over this error: Unknown option: -d Error while connecting to host, No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. (10061) Connect on sock...

Hi, Is it possible to variable offset a face or at least a curve using more than 2 or 4 points. I have a necessity to produce an offset face that will repeatedly vary from 0 offset, to positive, to negative and 0 offset again. It would be best, if this was a part of synchronous modelling toolset..

Hi, is there a way to flatten a face/surface in NX? SolidWorks has begun to offer this feature since 2014 and makes me wonder if NX is catching up to that. Thanks!

Hi all, I have attached a parasolid file. It was created with SolidWorks 2016 using complex side route to sheet metal because the SW sheet metal features were not advanced enough to perform this in a way that it could be flat patterned. Can anyone please try and recreate this using NX sheet...

Hi, I was wondering if NX advanced flow allows a 2D simulation like ANSYS Fluent? If so, how can I define the boundary conditions? I seem to be able to import and mesh a 2D surface, but it will only let me select individual mesh elements as boundary conditions. Also I am having problems with...

Hi I have stumbled across this error and it appears to be solved right here on eng-tips forums. The remedy was stated as follows, but the subject is closed.. /Go into your display properties....goto the "advanced" tab which can be found on the "settings" tab. From there under the...

Hi, I am having problems flattening a split pipe. Basically what I have is a tapered tube (0.4 degrees of taper), with each end cut off at angles. The tube itself was created by extruding a circular section using draft and then trimming it to angled planes. The split was created by extruding a...

Hi all, I have stumbled across annoying problem: What I have modeled is a prototype of an intake port for motorcycle (some of you may have noticed it's something I do a lot). It is basically a smooth channel that splits in two somewhere down the middle, but unfortunately it is not symmetric...

Hi, I am having real difficulty getting used with the NX highlighting characteristics. I have several parasolid bodies imported in my work part, and whenever I hover above any of those with my mouse, it highlights all body. In SolidWorks, it only highlights faces, so its easier to work when...

Hi, my PC is going through some hard time and it crashed the last time I tried to save a solidworks 2015 part file. After a reboot I found that solidworks can no longer open the file because of some error that it created during the crash. I really need the geometry in that file, but I dont want...

Hi, today I opened up one of my modelling files from yesterday and found out that the dimensions from all of my sketches are hidden. I can not view or edit them and I really would not like to redraw all of them. Is there a way to unhide them? Or at least prevent this from happening.. Thanks!

Hi, Every once in a while I am having problems with sewing sheets to solid body. What I have here is a series of sheets, created by studio surfaces, revolves, bounded planes, split sheets, N-sided surfaces and trimmed sheets. The examine geometry tells me its all fine, and the sew to solid body...

Hi, A quick question. Why does a spline looses it's tangency every time I re-edit it, in the case if it's defined by poles? Poles give me a better control over the spline, but I really have to adjust their location a lot, and finding all the tangent edges every time is starting to get frustrating.

Hi everyone, I have been using section curves on a solid body, sewn together from a bunch of sheets. It is in fact solid because I can use "measure bodies" feature successfully. But the problem I get is that some of the output section curves are not closed. I have been trying to use bounded...

Hi, I am having some trouble selecting individual faces or curves in NX9. I have used "divide face" feature on a sheet, and want to sew each half of it to different sheets. The problem with it is that when using sew and selecting sheets, it will not let me pick the halves separately. It treats...

Hi everyone, I have a problem that I am unable to find a solution by myself. I have a planar sketch, that contains 4 points and a closed spline drawn through all of these points, forming something close to ellipse or circle, but not quite. What I would like to do, is to create a point, that...

Hey everyone, I feel a little bit bugged about the way how sketch constraints show up. They seem to be located directly on the constrained entity. There are two problems with this for me: 1) Since they actually cross the entity, it is very hard to understand what kind of constraint it is, the...

Hi, sorry for the newbie question, But I am having serious trouble understanding how do I get the raw G code out of my machining operations? I would like to have it in the format of NC file. Thanks! I forgot to add, knowing where to look for the physical processing time would also be nice.

Hi, I'd like to ask about moving mesh capability in NX flow simulation. I have heard it's capable of it, though I am not sure if this option is included in the standard NX package or does one need to purchase some kind of additional package? Thanks.

Hey everyone, I would like to ask for some help or input on the following issue: I have a series of solid bodies in my modelling file and I have used "measure bodies" feature on each body to determine the individual volumes. I can see there is a button "spreadsheet" that explains it can export...
