Export 2-D Section View Of Model
(OP)
Greetings:
I have a model of a round part where the contour is unique. I need to section this part and export it into a .dwg file. Can anyone help me with that process?
Thanks,
Brent

RE: Export 2-D Section View Of Model
- Switch to the drafting module, add a drawing sheet.
- Add a base view of your model.
- Create the desired section view from your base view.
- Use file -> export -> autocad dxf/dwg to export the drawing sheet.
The details of each step may differ slightly depending on the version of NX that you are using.www.nxjournaling.com

If this is about size/scale, it will depend on some combination of your sheet scale, view scale, and export options (and possibly the import options of the other system). I don't often have the need to deal with dxf files; years ago, some files that I imported had to be scaled by a factor of 25.4 to account for english/metric unit conversions.

Yes, I'm referring to the scale. I just want to make sure that it when bringing it in to AutoCAD, that the geometry is scaled 1 to 1 (Full). I guess with your explanation above, there might be options to check to ensure it is scaled properly. For example, if in my UG drafting sheet, I brought a view in at 1:2, then when I export that sheet, will the geometry export at 1:2, or just Full?
Thanks again for your time on this question,

and I've not played around with it, so I'm not exactly sure what it does.
