Welding problem

Welding problem

(OP)
Hi,
I'm not able to weld as the image attached.
Files are also attached.

Thank you...

Using NX 7.0.1.7 MP3 and TC8.1

RE: Welding problem

Hi Cuba,
 I tried it in 7.5.2.5 .  I don't have 7.0 installed anymore.
I noted three things,
* why do face set 1 consist of 21 faces ?
  When i select, i "see" 9 faces for the weld to "touch".
  De-select all Face set 1 and select again.
* Second edge set consists of 3 selected edges, not 5. Add the
  missing edges.
* Extension Method is set to "By Value=2" , If I set the method to
 Automatic ( plus the changes above) it works.

Regards,
 Tomas

 

RE: Welding problem

Hi toost,
when I select the first face in set 1 I use the option 'tangent', this is the reason of the 21 faces.
I need to select face by face ?

For second edge set consists of 3 selected edges, not 5, but I used the connected curve.
I will be more careful next time.

For the option I used 'by value' because 'automatic' doesn't give me any preview.

Anyway with this suggestions / corrections the weld become complete.

Thank you.

Thank you...

RE: Welding problem

Hi Cuba,
 I tried the working settings but using the 21 faces, and the weld doesn't update. I don't know the reason for this, it might be the holes that confuses the weld. I selected the 9 faces manually.

Regards,
 Tomas
