C.G. of assembly of eom assemblies
C.G. of assembly of eom assemblies
(OP)
I am using NX10 and am trying to determine the c.g. of an assembly consisting of homogenious parts and eom assemblies.
I can assign a material to the homogenious parts. The oem assemblies consist of several parts in the model and I can assert a weight for the oem assembly model. I am just using the volumetric center of the oem assemblies as their size is small relative to the parent assembly.
Now the problem is how do I find the c.g. of the entire assembly? If I use the Measure Bodies tool I can only select the bodies in the assembly and not the oem assemblies with the asserted weights. I cannot not select the sub-components of the oem. Thus the tool is including the volumes of the oem components.
Anybody have a solution?

Using the "measure bodies" WILL NOT honor asserted values.
"Menu Analysis->Advanced Mass Properties->Advanced Weight Management." + Calculate xx.

Do you know how to make it put an indicator at the location of the c.g. or do I have to just use the x, y, z, results and place my own indicator?
Thanks,
