NX Simcenter 12 - Import FEM in a .fem

[Sersoura]

Hello everyone,

Does someone know if it is possible to import an existing FEM as a .dat (format: Nastan) in an existing .fem on NX?
And if it is possible, can you please show me how to do it?

I meshed a part of an assembly on NX, now I have to add the rest of the parts already meshed in Patran in the .fem and I don't find the way to do it!

Thank you

Sara.

I found it guys!

You first create a new NX .fem with the .dat, we'll call this one FEM2. Then you append this FEM2 to the first .fem (FEM1).
The function to append it is in: Menu -> Insert -> Append FEM
You select the FEM2 and click on OK! And that's it!
