I need to maintain contact between the two blue surfaces and the yellow surface as the green component is rotated/translated. I've tried multiple combinations of touch/align/angle but it always ends up either being outright over-constrained or prevents dynamic movement. I would like the...
Does anyone have an idea about what is going on here? In my customer defaults the sketch curve color is set to cyan.
Inside the sketch command, the curve color is set to cyan but the sketch curves always come out green.
What other setting might be controlling this?
How do you handle adding a perimeter dimension to curves in the new sketcher? Picking an object does not give an option for a perimeter dimension.
I can add a perimeter dimension using to old dimension facility but it always shows up as over constrained, even when there are no other...
When I select some features (not all) in the part navigator,
then right click and select show or hide, I get this error:
This wasn't the case in NX11. Is this a new misguided feature? Is there a customer default to turn it off? Or is it a bug?
Also, when I use "Immediate Hide", I can only...
Where is the setting that controls whether multiple revisions of the same component part number are allowed in an assembly? I.E., an assembly that contains both "part1 rev a" and "part 1 rev b".
I posted this file in another thread as an example of one way to create a hole array. But I went back and looked closer and something was off.
Expression p14=floor(p9/minimum_hole Space) returns a value of 12 but only creates 11 points.
If I change it to p14=floor(p9/minimum_hole Space)+1 it...
When I create a new file and import a Parasolid file created from an inch units model into it, the file units remain as inch units. However, if I open that same Parasolid file directly using File>Open, it opens as a millimeter unit file.
Is there a setting that controls the default units when...
Is there a font in NX that will display uppercase letters no matter whether the user inputs lower or upper case? The reason I would like this that is we populate the drawing sheet with the Teamcenter description field. Having the description in upper and lower case makes it easier to read in...
Attached is an NX 7.5 model of what I am trying to do. I want to create a corner that fills in the open area with a surface that is tangent to all of the connecting surfaces. Ultimately I want to use this on solid bodies to soften some external corners. I tried to to use the Transition...
Is there a setting that forces views to update before plotting/printing? I just got a message from our shop letting me know that the numbers on some of our prints aren't working out. I checked the model and everything was fine, but found that the drawings had been printed with outdated views.
This computer runs UG very slowly and is very prone to locking up when performing even simple UG tasks. Is anyone else running this machine setup? Have you experienced similar problems and, if so, how did you correct them?
NX6 with Teamcenter 2500 sr1/2700
I have been tasked with modeling a porous surface for one of our components. The surface has to be fully modeled in order to generate an STL file for making the part as a laser sintered component. Attached is a part file(NX5)of the basic porous surface module. In order to create the full...
I have Teamcenter 2005 SR1/2007 and NX5.0.3.2 running on a Dell M90 laptop. When I travel/work from home I am connected to our network through a VPN. I am on a cable modem at home with a minimum 3mb/s download speed and 1.5 mb/s upload speed.
When I try to connect to Teamcenter I usually...
Can Teamcenter be set to open assemblies "As Saved" by default?
Currently, when we open an assembly file from Teamcenter it defaults to "Latest Working". This cause problems when opening older versions of assemblies because the latest working version of the assembly components may be several...
I've been using a Spaceball 4000 for quite a while but lately it is deteriorating in terms of smoothness. I borrowed a Space Navigator from an engineer who is out of the office and it worked well except for one thing. When I enter the sketch function, it locks into 2D mode. I can pan and...
In our office we have designers using both, based primarily on personal preference. No one can here can make a strong argument for their stance.
So my question is which is better and why?
We just upgraded to NX 5. When I start NX5 through Teamcenter, I get the attached error messages. When I click "OK" the messages, NX starts and seems to run fine. What could be causing this error?
NX 4.0.4.2
Whenever I run feature playback, I can step through the model features until I get to an array. Once I reach an array, the playback feature "fast forwards" to the end of the model tree. Has anyone else experienced this and is there a fix for this behavior?
