NonManifold Add.. 1

[davidRC]

Hello everybody;
I have a question about Nx7 Advanced Simulation.
I have several sheets (file attached) that intersect but don´t share any edge, and I want to unite them before I mesh to perform the simulation taking into account all sheets as a whole. I don´t know how do it. I´m looking for a buttom like "NonManifold add..." in FEMAP.
Any idea?

Can you post a parasolid of your model file?
I would like to check it out, but I am on NX6.

Hello Jerry1423, thanks for the reply!
I want to clear that I need to unite the sheets and generate a non-manifold geometry to mesh all as a whole. This will do my work more easy.
I attached the parasolid.

Thanks.

Here is what I came up with.
When sewing sheets together the edges must meet.
I think you may be able to figure out what I did by looking at the model.
Maybe step thru the model using: edit > feature > playback

Ok, I understand the process. But my real structure is very complicated and I would like to this feature was automatic.
I attached a part of the real structure for you can see.

Thanks.

Wow, I feel your pain.
I will try to come up with somethng that may help you,
but I am anxious to see if anybody can give their two cents worth.
