    Modeling Helical and Bevel Gear Teeth- NX

    I have NX 9.0 and will soon be upgrading to NX12.0, are you saying that it wont work unless it NX7.5?

    Modeling Helical and Bevel Gear Teeth- NX

    Does that variable UGII_COUNTRY = PRC require a separate license to use or does it work with the regular NX license bundle.

    Modeling Helical and Bevel Gear Teeth- NX

    SDETERS - Do you have a file like that for Helical teeth, I have no problem drawing Spur teeth its Helical and Bevel that I can't figure out.

    Modeling Helical and Bevel Gear Teeth- NX

    I have NX9.0, will be upgrading to 12.0 at some point but don't know exactly when that will be yet.

    Modeling Helical and Bevel Gear Teeth- NX

    So when I tried they "Toolkit" it tells me that I need NX China license. Do you know if this option comes with NX 12 or do you still need separate license? I have NX9.0 and doesn't work without a separate license. This seems way harder than it has to be to model some teeth.

    Modeling Helical and Bevel Gear Teeth- NX

    I am not sure, I am going to send a note to my IT group and ask them to try and see of they can enable it. From watching some yyou tube clips it seems like the simplest way to do it.

    Modeling Helical and Bevel Gear Teeth- NX

    What about NX "GC Toolkit" looks like that can create a simple gear for helical, bevel, and spur. Geometry might not be 100% but would be close enough for what I am trying to do.

    Modeling Helical and Bevel Gear Teeth- NX

    Yea sorry I do not know what those are. We are currently running 9.0 and switching to 12.0 in the near future.

    Modeling Helical and Bevel Gear Teeth- NX

    I am having trouble modeling gear teeth in NX. Spend many hours yesterday trying to get it to work. I have a .grip program but when I use the 3-D function it gives me hollow teeth that are not a solid body? you also cannot edge break the teeth then. I also tried putting them in using the...

    Gear Calculation Shortware for Manufaturing

    My company is in gear manufacturing and common issues that come up are calculation plating thickness on splines teeth and alternate pin size measurements. I have the formulas to do this by hand and our gear engineering has a old DOS program that can do it but was wondering if there was...

    Tolerance Stack up

    Yea we make tight tolerance aerospace parts and just want to make sure that why I tolerance lengths in the process specially in turning where a lot is being machined that though stack up I don't machine something out of F/P. But using worst case I know that I would still be within print but like...

    Tolerance Stack up

    I am working on a manufacturing process and wondering when it comes to calculating tolerance stack up through the process during the turning stages what is the best way to go about it? I have read up on the Worst case method and RSS method and seams like just doing worst case is the way to go...

    Metric Drawing?

    The problem is I have this bench center from Mitotoyo and I need some other centers of different sizes (bigger) for some larger parts and from what I have been hearing from there customer service is they don't make multiple sizes which to me doesn't make any scence so i was going to get some...

    Metric Drawing?

    So would Datumn -A- in today standards be the OD of the part?

    Metric Drawing?

    I would agree so then for instance the .003 R/O is actually .0001" approx? if you convert it over....

    Metric Drawing?

    Looking for some help with reading this print? I have not had to much experience with metric prints, and mostly wondering about the toleranceing? Obviously you can convert the dimm. to inches but what about that tolerances? For instance it has .003 R/O on the cone, is that .003MM or what is...

    FELLOWS STARTING POINT??

    One more question since you are answering me quickly. T.I.F dia, I don't see the formula for that either?
