Edit Deformable Part in NX6
Edit Deformable Part in NX6
(OP)
I am trying to learn about deformable parts in NX6 (NX6.0.2.8) I have successfully defined a part and added to an assy where I can deform as I desire. My problem comes in when I want to modify the parameters of the original deformable part to increase the original range(not in the assy as a component). The only option I have found is to define deformable part, which ends up replacing (not editing) the original parameters. Is there a way to re-define (edit) a range that was originally set in the deformable part from 1 to 10, and change it to 1 to 20?





RE: Edit Deformable Part in NX6
On one hand this seems like a pretty significant inconvenience especially once you have used the deformable parts in existing assemblies. On the other hand it seems to me that the logic behind making some elements of this process maintainable might be torturous and perhaps not worthwhile. The only advice that I can give then is to understand how to reverse engineer things when you do change things in ways that affect your assemblies, and in general to keep your use of deformable parts as simple as possible perhaps not expecting too much from them.

A solution would be to be able to save the deform definition and import it when you remake one.
