Centerline in drawing of a bend rod.
Centerline in drawing of a bend rod.
(OP)
Hi there,
I need to create a centerline at the midpoint of a bend rod, but NX doesn't recognize a bend rod as a circle.
Does anyone has a idea to create one?
I tried to lay a sketch over it and project the curve, but also of a projected curve NX can't create a centerline.
I created the part with an helix, two sketches and a sweep.
See picture for what i exactly want.
Thanks in advance,

I've seen it before that NX has problems with bend rods or tubes.

(I tried the tube command before on this part but that didn't work because the connection between the helix and the rest of the sketches were not tangent. After fixing this with the curve bridge command the tube command was working fine.)
