NX9 Reuse Library

NX9 Reuse Library

NX9 Reuse Library

(OP)
Installing NX9 (using a custom install), which module is required for the Reuse Library sample parts ?

NX 10 (Testing)
Windows 7 64 (Windows 8.1 Tablet)

RE: NX9 Reuse Library

The libraries are not installed when you install the NX software. They have to be downloaded separately from the same site that you downloaded the NX software from. You need to go back to the GTAC download site and you'll find the Machinery Library files. Note that there's a document there which will help you to properly set-up the libraries so that they'e accessible from NX.

RE: NX9 Reuse Library

When you're in the Software Download area and you've selected the...

NX/Unigraphics
NX

...item, and you select either of the Windows items when the list opens, the last item, at the very bottom of the list you've find an item titled 'Machinery_library'. Expand it and you've find the various libraries. The first document that you should review is the one titled 'Machinery-Library-readme.doc'. Now you do not need to download all of them, just one which will benefit you the most. Before do that however, plese review the contents of the libraries looking through the spreadsheet titled 'Machinery-library-catalogue-for-NX502.xls'. Once you've decided which library(s) that you're going to download, then download the document 'Machinery-library-install-tool-2013-05-16.zip' which will explain how to install whatever libraries you finally decide to install.

http://vimeo.com/85314935 is a video we made a little while back about the machinery library and how to download & install it.
