How to create "Roll-Cut" View of Cylindrical part in NX7.5
How to create "Roll-Cut" View of Cylindrical part in NX7.5
(OP)
I would like to map different thicknesses on the "skin" of a solid cylindrical part. The thought is to just lay the part out so all of the surface is visible in one view. In other words, an "un-rolled" view. Is this possible in NX 7.5?

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

I suspect that the model may have been created using something other than canonical forms (circles/arcs).
