Hi all!

Currently, I want to identify the face pairs which depict interfaces between 2 or more components in NX using NX Open. These faces are faces which are coincident/touching with a face of the other body.

For this, I already did some research concerning existing methods, as there are for example:
[ul]
[li]Clearance Analysis Builder -> Get Interference Data[/li]
[li]ufs.Modl.CheckInterference[/li]
[li]GeometricUtilities.SimpleInterference[/li]
[li]TraceARay Methods [/li]
[/ul]

Unfortunately, all these methods have some shortcomes as far as I know/experienced.
None of them can give me these interface faces between two or multiple components/bodies. Can somebody can confirm my experience?

Does somebody know a clean and fast solution to do this?

Thanks a lot!
