Parameterize a scaled model?

Parameterize a scaled model?

Parameterize a scaled model?

(OP)
Hi guys, I'm relatively new to UG, I was wondering if someone could talk me through how to take a model which is scaled up from another model, fully parametrize that scaled model, and then create me own copy (manually) of it

RE: Parameterize a scaled model?

What version of NX are you on?
Fully parametize? probably not, but it depends on the model, some things can be parametized, and some not.
A copy: either STEP or parasolid works fine.
 

RE: Parameterize a scaled model?

Is the parent model parameterized?

RE: Parameterize a scaled model?

Rather than just leave you wondering I think what we should say is that scaling of models whether uniform or independently in the XYZ axes can be achieved parametrically using the scale body function.

That functions works I for bodies but not curves. And whether the model is parametric or not. So a typical workflow might be to wave link the body from you parametererised original model and then just add scale to it.

I doubt the OP is coming back... he has only logged on one time and that was his only post.
Good answer, though!
