[NX8] Assembly weight in drafting
[NX8] Assembly weight in drafting
(OP)
Hi,
whit NX8 we can add a weight part property linked to the part weight that we can use in the drafting.
If I want to show the assembly weight in drafting, in the assembly file I can't add the weight property.
Someone know a workaround or a solution ?

That being said, we recommend that you contact GTAC and have them open an ER (Enhancement Request) asking that Weight Management be enhanced to support Assemblies in the same manner in which individual Components are handled.

The assembly weight module sounds like the same situation. It may take a few releases to get the ER through. The reason it will be an ER is because the system works as designed. They just forgot about other users of their neat weight module. The fact that they caught it for detail parts and not assemblies, may get it implemented by NX9.

I am too keenly waiting for this thing, in fact I was able to duplicated an ER request based on some previous one. I did this when we were using NX5 now its NX8 and still same problem! wired :(
Even more annoying is that the information we are looking for (combined mass of assembly and sub-assemblies) are available in assembly navigator but we cannot fetch it to part list.
God knows when this will be solved.
RE: [NX8] Assembly weight in drafting
in part list the weight is available from NX3 sure.
Thank you...

RE: [NX8] Assembly weight in drafting
Thanks for understanding the requirement, apart from things that is not available can you tell us what was the reason behind not allowing combined mass (sub assembly) in part list? May be this will give some direction to us, to handle masses in different way.
