    Does NX have an automated clearance check feature for a range of motion?

    I gave it a try and wow, that is amazing! Thank you Toost for teaching me something today!

    Does NX have an automated clearance check feature for a range of motion?

    Hello, I am working on a tube support inside a crankcase that is positioned near the crankshaft. I’d like to give the crankshaft one full rotation and find the minimum clearance between the crank and the support at every five degrees or so. I was an I-deas user for many years and I remember...

    NX 7.5 Assembly Sequencing û Using Motion

    Hi Joe, I reported this issue to GTAC and it looks like it is a problem with NX version 7.5.4.4 MP3 (Maintenance Pack 3). The support person I was in contact with tried it on the same version and got the same result. It looks like the problem is fixed in MP10 and that explains why you got it...

    NX 7.5 Assembly Sequencing û Using Motion

    John, I mocked up an engine assembly similar to what I am working on. Please download the attached and play the sequence to see if it plays the same for you. There is a movie that shows what I am experiencing. If you can figure this out, I'll buy you a cup of coffee...

    NX 7.5 Assembly Sequencing û Using Motion

    I have the same Sequence Navigator settings. Could there be a setting in customer defaults, preferences, etc., that would make it behave this way? I really appreciate you taking time to help. Thanks

    They are set to 'On'. If I turn them off, only the ring-1 component rotates.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=4214ff79-9ab4-4cef-9231-7fa6fba24d9f&file=cam_assembly_gb74_constraints_off.avi

    NX 7.5 Assembly Sequencing û Using Motion

    John, I downloaded the Circular_Cam.zip file you posted from the thread below and played it. The assembly rotated but the cam-followers did not move up and down with the cam (see attached). If I exit the assembly sequence task environment and rotate the "ring-1" component, the cam-followers...

    NX 7.5 Assembly Sequencing û Using Motion

    I am a longtime I-DEAS user now using NX 7.5. In I-DEAS, I was able to animate a constrained engine assembly (crankcase, crankshaft, rods and pistons) by adding an angular constraint to the crankshaft and using it as the driving dimension. I have been trying to animate an engine assembly in NX...

    NX I-deas 5 m3 HAMs

    Hello, I have been working with a part that has been around since SDRC I-deas Master Series 5. There were a lot of suppressed nodes on the history tree. I deleted all of the suppressed nodes and did a complete update on the part and then checked it into Teamcenter. When I went to modify the...
