@moltenmetal: I understand your point of view and I agree that a team leader needs to know what is going on, but this is not the case. As I mentioned in the original post, I always let my team leader know what I'm working on and I always discuss about how I am planning to solve the situation. I...
Hello all,
Some months ago two team leaders exchanged departments. I didn't mind too much at the time, as I can work with almost anybody and can do my job no matter the team leader (although I feel the former one was a person from which I had much more to learn from than the new one).
For a...
Thank you both!
I am so used to working only with associative features that I completely forgot that I can move the helix without 'exploding' the whole feature tree. It looks a lot better than originally.
I wish you both a great day!

cowski, thanks for the thread, that was very helpful in determining if they are not aligned and seeing how much the misalignment is. I now know that I have 4 helices which are misaligned on Y with values between 0,01 and 0,52mm. As I suspected. But this does not really help in solving this...
Hello all!
After searching the forum, the NX help library and other, I still believe that there is no way of completely editing the helix created with the Helix feature in NX 7.5.
But....maybe I am wrong.
I am currently working on a part created by someone else. This person used a lot of helix...
Hello ingallspw,
I don't know of any way of automatically hiding a body you want to mirror, but in my opinion the best way to obtain what you want is to move the object you plan to mirror on a different layer and then just hide the layer on which the original object is.
I work with layers for...
Hello all,
Thank you for your suggestions.
Buying a gear program would seem the better option, but for the moment I have been assigned to do exactly this job...create a working gear model. (actually improve the creation method used so far)
That's why I'm reading and learning and asking for...
Thank you all for your responses. They are very helpful.
tbuelna, thank you for your great explanation of why it is necessary to compute and use the different ß angles. Now it makes more sense.
I will definitely have to read further on the subject of gears, so thanks mfgenggear for the book...
Hello all,
I work as an application engineer and I have recently taken over a project regarding the construction of gears in general. So I have only a basic understanding of the subject.
I noticed that in the CAD construction the person who was previously responsible of gears has defined more...
