Solidworks Assembly Model(s)/Components To UG/NX7 Translation?
Solidworks Assembly Model(s)/Components To UG/NX7 Translation?
(OP)
Did the search and I think I know the answer, but thought I would ask anyway.
We run TCE alongside UG/NX7 and are considering having an outside source do some design and drawings for us in Solidworks. In the end we would want to take those assembly and componet models along with their drawings and bring them into UG/NX7.
Is this possible at all or are we going to have to go through the Parasolid route with the solid models they create, reassemble them, and then do our own UG/NX7 drawing?
Any guidence will be greatly appreciated with this.
Thank you,
Gary Ashby

And, yes, you can open an SolidWorks Assembly directly in NX and it will sort everything out for you and convert it into a valid NX assembly.

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

1.) Will I have to open the SolidWorks assembly in Native or TCE?
2.) Is it possible to use any information from the SolidWorks drawing?
3.) By your comment about a "valid NX assembly", can I hope to have any parametrics on the translated models?
Thanks again for you assistance,
Gary
