NX Motion Center of mass

[gelsonnicoletto]

Is possible to plot the center of mass for each motion bodies in NX Motion but, how can I find the center of the mass of multiple motion bodies together?
I tried to use the trace to create solid bodies in the animation position but that procedure is very slow.

I suggest placing Markers at the center of mass of each body. You can then plot the coordinates of the Markers. If the bodies move relative to each other and you want the combined center, then I would export the individual Marker coordinate data to spreadsheet and calculate the combined center manually. If you must plot the combined centers dynamically in NX then perhaps you could create a "fictitious" body which position is functionally related to the coordinates of the individual Markers, and then plot the coordinates of that body.

Thanks for the answer. Is a lot of work for a simple information. I will open an ER with our support.
