    Interpart expressions within a part family

    Hello All, As I've not received any advice perhaps I need to explain myself a little better. The part family I'd like to create has a child component from which I have created an interpart expression - "TCG01000462694/A"::Dia and then the expression 'Clip_Dia' uses this as a formula. When I...

    Interpart expressions within a part family

    I'm trying to use an interpart expression in a Part family. I can see the expression listed as User Defined but on opening the Part family dialogue I can't see it or find it. Am I doing something wrong, can I even use interpart expressions within a part family?

    NX6 part families

    They are to be used in tooling fixtures and invariably only a few different sizes will be used as and when required; but the one I don’t produce will be the one someone asks for… There are over 300 variants (having now been asked to provide both light & heavy duty) and I was hoping for an easier...

    NX6 part families

    Thanks Michael My concern with deformable parts is that the diameter & length could then be given arbitrary sizes that are not within a standard range and as the dowel should be in our Standard Parts library I’m not sure that would be acceptable. I would also have to add ‘material thickness’...

    NX6 part families

    I have a series of varying diameter spring dowels and for each diameter there are different lengths; if I had one part number for every dia/length variant there would be close to 160 parts. I don’t know if this is possible but I’d like to create a part family that uses user prompts ie. The user...
