Maybe a barrel nut, instead of a helicoil. e.g. NAS577

I suggest placing Markers at the center of mass of each body. You can then plot the coordinates of the Markers. If the bodies move relative to each other and you want the combined center, then I would export the individual Marker coordinate data to spreadsheet and calculate the combined center...

potential clue (from QQ-W-412): Checking 465a, the properties listed for Class B align perfectly with the properties listed for QQ-W-429 in my previous post above (209-308ksi). This leads me to believe 429 was intended to superseded 465a Class B, but was shortly obsoleted. The cancellation...

Maybe this will be helpful (attach), it lists the tensile strength. found here: https://www.google.com/books/edition/Drafting_Room_Manual/V_Y1AQAAIAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=0 edit: I see now that this was already posted above...

Can you use "Reattach sketch" ?

Is it possible to create a curve from the path of a specified point on a link within motion application? A simple example would be to display the coupler curve of a four-bar linkage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjxnoQz4xDs I've tried two ways to at least get a visual display after running...

Here is one idea

I did build the components of the assembly from parasolids so that may be a clue. In this assembly model I have about 10 simulations, each using the same mechanism assembly but set up in different positions for different motions and outputs. Most but not all result in this error when I attempt...

Here is a what seems to be the relevant portion of the logfile, for what it's worth:

I have a large assembly motion model, which has multiple saved simulations. Suddenly, when I enter the Motion application, and double click on a simulation to enter, I get the following error: "Error occurred during display of part Modeler error: object is not of type expected" Also attached...

I've noticed that if I color the lines within a sketch, that when I exit the sketch, sometimes the colors are still showing and other times not (all just gray). What determines if the colors still show or not?

This is a somewhat non-specific question, I'm looking for discussion on different methods for doing kinematic layouts (linkage design) in 3D, since generally everyone will develop their own unique variation of techniques. If you are experienced with kinematics and specifically using sketch...

Using NX11. I'm attempting to set up a simulation with multiple viewports, i.e. using the layout that divides the screen into four quadrants, and in each viewport the camera is zoomed in on a particular part of the assembly. No issues setting it up, but when I play the animation, only the...

I know that on a composite feature control frame, the feature relating (second row) tolerance must have the same datum precedence as the pattern locating (first row) tolerance. Is this the case also for two separate single segment controls applied to a feature? e.g., could I have an FCF...

Use a CSYS to locate the sphere center, then associate the line to the CSYS. You could try projecting a point from the origin to the outer surface of the sphere, then associate the line to the projected point (or make an offset CSYS to that point).

Dean, Thanks for the pic. I think something like that will work if I understand it correctly. When you show datum D as secondary in the FCF for the small hole, does that mean the tertiary datum plane B "moves" with the large hole wherever it is located? If not, I think I am still missing...

Please see the attached image. The green part comes in with two holes which are controlled relative to each other. It mates to the blue part so that the big hole is some distance from datum A (loose tolerance), and the green part is clocked so that the angle of the red line relative to datum A...

Looking for the most practical way to call out the feature described below for machining. Imagine a clevis with a slotted hole roughly like this: https://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=e19aadde-1bb1-487d-9090-599f69d2ea4f&file=slotted_clevis.jpg Except with a curved (constant...

Trying to gather information on the use of shims/plates with serrations that are used to adjust position of attachment fittings to structure(e.g. hinges, lugs, latch brackets, ...). I.e. the interfacing surface of both a fitting and mating structure are serrated, such that the fitting can be...

[NX 10] I have a fully constrained kinematic sketch with one input dimension. Is there a way to vary that dimension, maybe with an expression, so that it steps through each value and a corresponding reference dimension is automatically measured and tabulated against each input value? The...
