    Add Constraints to Assembly Array Children

    I have created an assembly where I have arrayed some of the components. I then added a new component that I wish to constrain to the arrayed components only. NX allows me to add the constraints, but they have no effect! The new component can still be moved around using the Move Component...

    How to create an Offset Imprint

    I can't see how to make the Trim Body command work. I can select my nest block as the Target, but I am unable to select the moulded part as the Tool. Maybe I am going about it the wrong way? As I mentioned, I am in an assembly with 2 components. Before using the Trim Body command, I made the...

    How to create an Offset Imprint

    I have an intricate plastic moulded component, and I am trying to design a nesting block that it will sit into. I am going to print this block on a 3D printer, so what I want to do is create an imprint of the moulded part onto the nest block. As there is a dimensional tolerance on my plastic...

    Sub-Assembly Arrangements in a Parent Assembly

    Ok, I don't know what happened, but it's working now! All I did was start working on a completely unrelated assembly (without closing down my original assembly), and then later when I went back into the original assembly to demonstrate the problem to a colleague here in the office, everything...

    Sub-Assembly Arrangements in a Parent Assembly

    I am using NX7.5 and Teamcenter 8. In my parent assembly I have a Linear Guide (which is a sub-assembly) and another sub-assembly (let's call it Sub-Assembly2) that is mounted to the block on the Linear Guide using touch constraints. I want to show my parent assembly in different...

    Reference sets on separate drawing sheets

    I have modified an existing model file of a photo-etched stainless steel plate, which is bent at an angle along a form line. I have two reference sets in my model, one of the flat plate (called FLAT_FORM) and one of the part after it is bent into shape (called CLAMP_IN_SITU). I want to create...
