HOW: closed surface into solid

HOW: closed surface into solid

HOW: closed surface into solid

(OP)
Can someone explain me how in NX7.5, i can make a solid body when i have closed surface
e.g. : a cube with 6 sides all surfaces, how i turn it into solid body?

Thanks

RE: HOW: closed surface into solid

If they're all separate Sheet bodies, simply Sew them together using...

Insert -> Combine -> Sew...

However, if what you've got is a 6-sided Sheet body that it not an actual Solid, you'll need to separate it into at least 2 separate Sheet bodies and then sew it back together which will then give you a Solid body. So, to do that, go to...

Insert -> Combine -> Unsew...

...and select anyone of the faces of the body and then hit OK. Now go back to workflow described above to Sew the Sheet bodies back into a Solid.
