I tried with offset - unite - offset, but it unites the faces pr. default.
Carlharr, I think you are correct, in that it is not possible, in the physics of CAD, to have the same body with different faces in the exact same space.
Sorry - the picture shows a simplified model. The open end of the ring has a slightly more complex shape than illustrated, but since this is work related, I didn't want to show too much.
Various roundings and chamfers are applied to the model at the open end, and therefore I can't just divide...
The attached picture shows the basic model, with just 2 adjacent faces at each end. Two bodies with more than 2 adjacent faces, and I only want to unite 2 of them.
I drawn split is also the kind of trickery I would like to avoid...
I will make a simple model to better illustrate the problem, but you are correct that it is just a split ring. The model needs to be divided in two bodies initially, in order to model the complex structure, where the ends meet.
The trick with the small gap is what we have used so far, but the...
Hi, I need some help from some NX experts - looks like this is the right place.
I have two solids - two revolved halves of a ring. They are both revolved based on the same sketch and therefore have the exact same profile. At one end, the two revolves have 2 adjacent faces (Clean cut prodile and...
