Thanks for all the responses and the link to spec.org. That may prove useful.
We aren't running any 4K monitors yet. Most workstations are running two 24" HD monitors of average decent build and maybe 2 years old. I don't really know of any real advantage in going to 4K monitors for design...
Hey all,
My company is looking to purchase a new workstation or two and I'm looking for the best graphics card for NX. We're currently running NX9 but will be jumping to NX11 perhaps in the next 6 months or so. We design automotive tooling and the product we're dealing with in the last year...
Yeah, as John said it could be a lightweight or layering issue. Check the layer visible in view setting for the component. You could also try switching the reference set for the component to "Entire Part".
What was the solution to your problem? I'm experiencing an issue trying to import Catia V5 files. When I select the Catia file it says "There are no licenses available for the NX_CATIAV5 translator" yet I'm certain we have the license. I'm guessing something just isn't setup correctly.
John, if all the people at GTAC were as enthusiastic about NX as you are I would be happy to do that. Unfortunately my experience has been nothing like that. Most of the tickets I've opened go round and round for a month or two and finally they close the ticket because they can't resolve the...
Now that is good to hear. I've seen plenty of NX sessions crash while trying to regenerate complex views in drafting. Typically these are complex views with hidden lines though not always. I've also seen a lot of detail views (view in circle) that will repeatedly crash an NX session.
Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but I believe NX can utilize multiple cores as of NX 9. I can't say if or how much it helps in modeling. It looks like we're going for the single 8 core Xeon E5-2630 v3 (8C, 2.4GHz, Turbo, HT, 20M, 85W). The second processor added another thousand dollars...
Thanks for the fast response. I'll pass on the dual processor recommendation. How about graphics cards? There is a pretty large selection in the 7810 model. We like to stick with the Nvidia Quadro line and don't typically go for dual cards though I wouldn't completely rule it out.
Greetings All,
My company is going to be purchasing new workstations very soon. These will be running NX 9, Teamcenter 10 and some will be used for FactoryCAD and Process Simulate. We've been buying the Dell T3610 but those are being phased out. We prefer Dell workstations. Currently...
Sorry. I should have mentioned that one of our primary automotive customers dictates that we run NX 9.0. I realize there is a customer default setting in NX 10 but I'm stuck with NX 9 for the foreseeable future so at the moment all legacy and new files default to Chronological. I could write...
I know I'm jumping in a little late on this thread but I'm hoping someone may have found a workaround for setting the default Assembly Navigator order. I realize the setting sticks once you save a file but I hear constant grumbling about this from the designers at my workplace. Is there any...
