I received this CAD model from Aglient for an RF Coupler I am using in a mechaincal design, but do not have the ability to open it. It is a PKG file, which I understand is a Creo/Direct and/or CoCreate file format.
Can I get a kind soul out there with access to one of these applications to...
I am familiar with moving the dimension lines using "cleanup dimensions", but the problem is not with the dimension line, but rather with the extension line where it "connects" to the object lines of the model.
I have an overall part dimension shown from the model and end of the extension lines...
Using Wildfire 5.0 (a.k.a. Creo/Elements)
I have a revolve feature in my model, and I showed one of the model dimensions in a drawing view. The extension line needs to be "dragged" up to provide the required gap between the extension line and the object line of the part envelope.
However...
That is an interesting solution, and it works as described. Thanks John.
Do you know what will happen in the Parts List? Will it have individual entries for each separate PEM or will it roll them up into a single part?
What would happen if I forgot about the PEMs in the "master" and just did part families with columns of the features (PEM holes). Then after generating the family parts, go into those separate files and add the PEMs there. Does this sound like good option? Any idea on what would happen when I...
Thanks for the prompt responses John and crecore. As you surmised (and I should have explained better) crecore, I have (for example) (10) #8-32 PEMs in the "master" and want (5) in one family member and (5) in the other family member.
I appreciate the suggestions, but making different part...
I am using NX 7,5 and have a part family that turns on/off some features. Later, I added two different components in the assembly, and I want some to show up in one instance and the other in teh second instance.
When I try to add a column for the components, it seems to want to take them all...
I am using NX 7.5, so I was unable to load your NX 8.5 sample file. However, I am very interested in creating part families of a label which uses expressions to drive the text in a part family.
I have attempted this in the attached file, but get error messages when I try to generate the part...
I am using NX 7.5 and I am trying to change a hole type from "threaded hole" to "screw clearance hole". When I double click on the hole feature to edit it, the other hole options are dimmed out.
Any ideas?
Actually, I am not wanting to know how to "instance an instance", I just want to know if after I generate a rectangular feature pattern in NX75, is it possible to create a new feature and add it to the existing rectangular parttern.
You guys are amazing. Thanks for all the good suggestions.
However, my (and evidently Walterke's) question still remains, can you add features to an existing rectangular array? It sounds like the answer is "no" based on carlharr's response. It seems like such a simple thing, I can do it in...
I am using NX 7.5. I have a rectangular pattern of an extrude feature (round hole). I added four tapped holes (one hole feature and a rectangular pattern to creat the other three) around the original circular hole. Now, I want to add these four new tapped holes to the existing rectangular...

When I create simplified reps, I generally exclude everything to start with, then, add the items I want in the simplified rep. That way, when I add new parts later on, none of them will be added to any of the simplified reps because to build the rep, the first entry is always...
Author "Toogood" has a very good introduction textbook for Mechancia. There is also a good book, "Building Better Products with FEA" that might prove useful as well.
Jeez, what a bummer. I just spoke with Ashish at PTC and learned that my upgrade purchase to MathCAD 14.0 last December came with a whole month's worth of support. I was also told that I could download build M020 if I buy a maintenance contract. No thanks PTC. This print preview crash defect...
My understanding is that FVM is better suited for solving CFD analysis. I recently evaluated EFD.Pro (FVM) from Flomerics and CFDesign (FEA) from Blue Ridge Numerics. Of course, they each tried to convince me that their method was best. I found a few articles that seemed to prove the FVM was...
