I don't know about that particular version, but we're running 8.0.3.4 and we're having a few "disappering" issues. GTAC it telling us that it's because we're not running certified video cards. While that's true, we're also not running junk video cards. These types of things have never been an...
We too have issues with updating drawings. I've voiced my concern that I feel like Siemens is focusing all of their time on PMI or on those who work exclusively in 2D drafting while ignoring those of us who make 2D drawings of 3D models.
HOWEVER, I did want to make sure everyone knew that the...
Ok John. I finally got around to trying the Heal Geometry option built into NX. I took an assembly and healed 13 of it's parts. It found over 3000 errors on just those 13 parts. I replaced all of the components with the healed components and then ....... nothing. I could not see any improved...
I feel like something on this subject was just posted but the eng-tips search feature isn't working so well at the moment. So my apologies if this is a repeat.
We are in desperate need of a process to clean up imported geomety. We are having assemblies bog down big time when geometry from...
Thanks Mark,
Yes, I understand what you're saying. I have had great interaction with individuals at GTAC and understand that many times they are just the messengers from development. I've had concerns lately with the whole development process at Siemens and so wanted to see what issues others...
Well I guess I'm not getting the response I expected. Thanks everyone for your comments. We've been using UG for over ten years and it seems like lately it's a fight to get anything going. I've never had a problem with any individual at GTAC, just some of the ways they do things there. Maybe...
I recently made some complaints about GTAC and some that heard were quite suprised that I had issues. They said that they had only heard glowing reviews. So I want to know, does anyone else have issues with GTAC?
Here's one problem I have to get some ideas going. I hate when GTAC codes things...
We have had similar problems. Some of our issues include: constraints blowing up from day to day, contraints disappering, unhelpful constriant errors, etc. We're very hesitant about making the switch at this point. We've been reporting these problems to GTAC and are recieving some encouraging...
BOPdesigner: I have been complaining recently about these issues as well. John, it's interesting that you say that you say hidden lines is hyper-thread supported because my system (a hyper threaded Xeon-Quad core) tops out at around 15% CPU usage and it still takes a really long time to update...
John,
Thanks for your response. I was a little suprised that no one had asked this question before. I guess I'm not the only one having issues with searching the forum.
Anyone who has seen NX's tractor demo has seen them grab a hold of the bucket and move it around. When they do this the hydraulic cylinders extend and contract. As simple as this seems to me, I can't figure out how to make this work. In SolidWorks you just didn't constrain the length of the...
I'm no computer genious, but I do know that the new box I have works much faster than my old one. I have fewer generic "memory" errors than before as well. I'm using Windows 7, and have been happy with its performance too. Here's what I've got:
Dell Precision T3500
Intel Xeon Quad Core 2.67 GHz...
I think I have an answer for you. In the component array you just need a boolean operation to control the number of instances. It could look like this:
if(Supress_Balls=1)(Number_Balls)else(1)
This way, if the master is suppressed, it changes the array count to 1 and gets rid of all of the...
The only experience I have is in native mode. The one kicker is to make sure your search directories are saved as your default. Go to File-Options-Assembly Load options, then set your search directories to find all of the parts in the drawing. Next, hit the save to file button at the bottom and...
Yes, we have verified that the supplier has not changed the chromate treatment due to RoHS. In fact, the type II coating is not compliant (hexavalent chromium).
mjl2023 - The "type" I'm referring to is the chromate coating. Type II is for colored chromate coatings and Type III is for colorless...
We've been having some major corrosion issues with zinc-plated parts recently. We've been manufacturing and shipping equipment all over the world for years and within the last year our equipment is arriving totally rusted. We've been using an SC2 Type III zinc coating and are looking into...
