    NX6 - Revolve of closed curves

    Yup, I'm wrong too! Tried a 180 and 360 degree revolves of a full circle and got the hemisphere and sphere John said I would. I've no idea where I got the idea it hadn't worked in the past as I couldn't replicate the failure. It's still interesting to note that a 360 degree revolve produces a...

    NX6 - Revolve of closed curves

    Hi John, Clearly I'm going to have to double check this tomorrow because, unless I've done something idiotic (and that's a distinct possibility! :)) I'm pretty sure attempting to revolve a sphere 360° about its diameter produces an error in the version of NX6 we use. As for my multiple bodies...

    NX6 - Revolve of closed curves

    As with most good answers, I now find myself wondering why I asked such as daft question! Thanks Toost. It does however highlight another curiosity, which is why does NX6 have such an issue with creating multiple bodies?

    NX6 - Revolve of closed curves

    Hi, So, here's a question that may not be NX-specific but I've not tried it on anything else so who knows! If I wished to, for example, model a sphere I could sketch a semicircle and revolve 360 degrees about its diameter. Easy. However, logic would dictate that a circle revolved 180 degrees...
