    NX 7.5 Part Configurations

    Hello all. I used to be able to make different part configurations in SW which would suppress or unsuppress certain features in a part. I have a part that will have tapped holes at the assembly level, but not as a component. In the past I would have two configurations of this part in the same...

    Sewing Sheets to Solid body

    Thank you very much for the help. I'll try and mend that one sliver where there is a gap. No, this is a handle. Do I need to have the surfaces dual-sided. I figured a surface already has inner and outer surfaces to it. Thank you.

    Sewing Sheets to Solid body

    You're referring to the thin silver sliver/line in between all the red? I'll give it a shot to sew those 2 together.

    Sewing Sheets to Solid body

    I've seen this discussed here many times but I'm not having any success sewing together a ton of sheets that are from an imported iges file of a vendor's component. I got the sheets to succesfully sew together using a tolerance of .05 but I still have a sewn sheet. When I look at the section...

    NX Extrusion Bend

    John, Thank you very much for all the help and time you've provided. I suppose it makes sense why NX functions this way. Another quick question I had is how can I snap to existing geometry in the sketch module. I am able to use project curve to be able to snap a few lines on the end of...

    NX Extrusion Bend

    John thank you for the help. To clarify you're suggesting that in lieu of bending a previusly straight model, that I should just model the item straight. I certainly could do this but I was trying to utilize the ease of modeling when everything is straight and then incorporate a simple bend. Is...

    NX Extrusion Bend

    Here is an image of the round rod and the surfaces that I think I need. (the sufaces are actually a revolved line and extruded line). I tried making the flat surfaces the base and the curves surface the control but then the rod goes on an angle from the original to the top of the curve. Thank...

    NX Extrusion Bend

    Hello all. I have a straight extrusion in NX 7.5 solid modeling that I need to bend to a certain radius/angle. I saw a previous post about this but it didn't completely solve my problem. I would like to model a tool, a chisel for example, straight and then bend it to an angle afterwards instead...
