Adding existing Parts to existing Part Family
Adding existing Parts to existing Part Family
(OP)
Hello All.
We have the following issue..
We have a bunch of parts ( Items in Teamcenter ) coming from a Migration from Ideas to NX.
All the parts have been copied from the "master" item so all expressions are matching.
How can I create a partfamily out of these parts without the need to recreate the datasets from the "master"
All parts have been applied to multiple assemblies.Therefor I would not like to replace the model with newly created geometry.

After you use the part Family to supress or enable the feature groups.

Attached PDF will show how this is done in NX-Teamcenter environment.
The NX helpfiles are also explaining the procedure with NX native usage.
When applied with re-use library the selection for use in Assemblies is similar to that of using partfamilies...
Keep in mind that the creation of additional "members" is not according Part family behavior.
