    (Seems like) rotor/load interia mistmatch on sustainably operated machine

    Which of them would you like to see? The load inertia limit is normally specified in datasheet for the motor, like this one: And the acceleration time is specified in technical data list for the rewinding machine: Well this lies in slight contradiction with what I know about dynamics of...

    (Seems like) rotor/load interia mistmatch on sustainably operated machine

    I sincerely apologize for confusing you, looks like during the final check word processor slightly distorted the original text. I mean "motor sizing routine" i.e. the procedure used to determine suitable motor specs. I'll try to further clarify my question as briefly as it possible. There are...

    (Seems like) rotor/load interia mistmatch on sustainably operated machine

    Hi there. Thanks for your attention. I'm mechanical design engineer (maybe that's the root of the problem - I'm not that familiar with electrical realm of the question) and I fall short to find any plausible answer to the problem, described below, that perplexes me. Since I'm working on a design...

    Override default shortcuts for sketch relations

    Hello there, guys, thanks a lot for your attention. I use NX 2212, and I was searching high and low to override the default shortcuts for "Make ..." commands (e.g. Make Coincident (X), Make Collinear (C) etc.) in Sketch Task Environment, which are also available from Sketch scene bar, but every...

    XESS and NX12/Linux

    Hello there, dear colleagues. Thank for your attention. I'm struggling to establish Debian 11 Linux workstation with NX12.02 (native Linux). In order to utilize the functionality of part families I need the XESS spreadsheet, and that's when the problem arises. As far as I understand, AIS...

    Rotary shouldered connections' threads

    Hello, colleagues. Thanks for your attention. As mentioned in thread561-335093, the Thread tool produces somewhat ambiguous results regarding to the tapered threads, at least when talking about NX 10 or earlier. Summarizing the content of the above mentioned topic, Thread tool is applicable...

    On this day in history...

    Wow, that's really fascinating insight, John. Especially for those, who have started to use UG/NX with the later versions and modern PCs, like me with NX 8.5. Have a really nice trip! NX 10.0.3.5

    Points and curves won't appear in drawing views.

    Hi, rmorgan890 This is a bit of trivia, but you haven't implicitly mentioned whether you tried the Show and Hide (Ctrl+W) feature or not. If not, just try to run this command and click the Show plus for all the mentioned objects' types, as far as I understood, these are Curves and Points...

    NX11 Assembly Constraints

    Hi there, BrittToolEngineer Concentrically constrained bolt still has 2 degrees of freedom - one rotational and one translational, you may check it by running the "Show degrees of freedom" command (use command finder to locate it) and selecting the part of interest, in this case, a bolt. You...

    External Threads - How To?

    hi, BrittToolEngineer I guess I know what do mean. I recall this dialog perplexed me a bit, at the very beginning, when is was not familiar with the system, now it seems pretty natural. After invoking the command you should select the cylindrical face, then end face for the thread start face...

    custom reorienting detail view normal to plate in DRAFTING???

    Hi, vasinka. It's not quite clear for me what is your model look like, but I suppose this can help you. What you really need is to orient drafting view while creating it. Try to create new drafting view via Base View command or View Creation Wizard (that really does not matter). I'll explain...

    Arrows Out Diameter Default?

    Hello, capaul. If I've got it right you are about to change the default orientation of the dimension arrows. You should configure the corresponding option in your drafting standard. Proceed to the Utilities -> Customer Defaults -> Drafting -> General/Setup -> Customize Standard, then Common ->...

    Creating hotkeys to favorites...

    As far as I know, NX 10.0 allows creating custom keyboard shortcuts only for commands. But "Projected dimensions" is not actually a command, but the option of more general "Measure Distance" command, thus, that's impossible - you cannot create shortcut for an option. However, you could create...

    Flat pattern drawing problem

    Hello, experts. I am using NX 10. Suddenly (actually, today), sheet metal module starts to act weird. I create a sheet metal part, contained some export-to-sheet-metal features, flanges, bends, etc.; then I create a flat pattern and take an attempt to place the drawing view of that flat...
