    Surface contrinuity

    I have a cam profile which is composed of several curved faces. Is there a way to join all those faces into one continuous profile? Thanks

    Edge blend problems

    Close, nothing happend by clicking edit and ok only, however when I retyped the blend value all updated correctly. I really does seem like a phantom error. I dont want to do this everytime I edit a blend though. I did go back and try deleting all blends in the model. Problem still occurs with...

    Edge blend problems

    I did use tangent curves for my selection. This problem occurs with all edge blends in the model, not just edge blend (300). I did try redefining several edge blends to no avail. I have created edge blend 300 at the end of the history tree just see whether the problem exists on newly created...

    Edge blend problems

    Hello Having some trouble editing and an edge blend in my model. Here's the error I receive. Everything in the history tree looks error free, therefore no clue what's going on here. Any help appreciated. ************************************************************ Update Failure Report...

    Constraint problems in nx6

    Unfortunately I cannot share any information on the assembly, military application. cowski - both the fixed part and the components being aligned are sub-assemblies.

    Constraint problems in nx6

    Each component is being aligned to a different axis in the fixed part.

    Constraint problems in nx6

    Im building up a rather large assembly with many rotaing parts. When I constrain the center axis of some components to a fixed part, using touch align infer-center/axis, it seems that the components are acting as one. For example I tried moving one of the componensts axially and all the...

    compression spring fatigue/life

    sorry I-16 on century spring yes I know its the deflection, I forgot to include the .395" in the paranthesis, would peening have any "good" affect? Isrelkk, do you have a good source for fatigue calculations? thanks

    compression spring fatigue/life

    Ok I just want to make sure we understand each other. I am not designing a spring or anything. It is a catalogue spring. I attached a quick sketch, since im not at work anymore, not to scale, sizes are greatly exaggerated free length is .630" solid length is .380" At the position you see...

    compression spring fatigue/life

    I am aware that the .235 deflection is out of the springs linear range, just looking for some numbers for now.

    compression spring fatigue/life

    ahh forgot that, .054" and its closed and ground thanks

    compression spring fatigue/life

    OD: .296 in fl: .630 in sl: .380 in k: 148 lbs/in material: sst The spring is being used in a "detent" mechanism. It's usually preloaded at least .06" but can be adjusted to a total of .150" When the mechanism goes through the detent the spring also travels .085" of further deflection...
