    I created a fully parametric part and created a PTS interface for it through PTS Author application. Then, I saved this file to a directory that is inside the Reuse Library.

    Modeling Spreadsheet wrong behavior?

    According to the docs, it seems that if I create a Spreadsheet (in NX > Tools > Spreadsheet), formulas that I type in the spreadsheet should be two-way translated (from spreadsheet to NX expressions and from NX expressions to spreadsheet). So I tried: [ol 1] In NX, created two parameters (Tools...

    WAVE Create Linked Part VS simply using WAVE Geometry Linker

    When WAVE Mode is activated, we can right click a component in the Assembly Navigator and choose WAVE > Create Linked Part. Let's call this the "seed" part (which is named "000018 0.2.0.prt" in my case). When the new part is created (let's call it "Linked01.prt"), it has all of the geometry of...

    I'm trying to set the UGII_ENV_FILE environment variable to point to a ugii_env.dat file located in the company's server. The path to the file is: \\172.16.17.2\NX FILES\CONFIGURAÇÕES\ugii_env.dat As you can see, it contains special characters like whitespace, Ç and Õ. Then I go to Windows...

    How to make a custom parametric spiral according to dimensions

    I want to draw a spiral according to the dimensions on the image, but I can't find a way to make it. Key dimensions: - The start point should be at 30° with a start radius of 180mm. - Spiral has 1 revolution (360°) - (This is the hard one) The maximum height point (where the tangent is...

    Best way to define expressions (user vs named expressions)

    Suppose I'm modeling a block with the following dimensions: Width = 10 Depth = Width * 2 Height = 12 Should I: [ol 1] Create a user expression "Width = 10", then start a sketch, draw a rectangle and dimension it with linked expressions "p0 = Width" and "p1 = Width * 2" Start a sketch, draw a...

    Best approach on part families that constantly change

    Hello everyone, I'm a new NX user coming from Solidworks. In the company I work, we make sheet metal housing for acoustic isolation. It's like a box with its sides covered by acoustic foam. The "box" has 5 sub-assemblies called "pads": front, left side, right side, back and top pads. The...
