We are buying a new IR camera, AVIO or a FLIR. We machine explosive material and need to get this camera into an enclosure that is Nema 4 and explosion/dust proof. Does anyone know where I can find such a thing?? Also any recommendations on a camera in the 20-30K range would be helpful.
I have created an array in an assembly with a couple of simple parts. When I go to delete any of these parts I get the following message-"Attempt to delete an array master component failed." Anybody have any ideas on how to get these parts deleted?
I would like to know how to keep the datum planes from disappearing in my part files. I have added 3 datum planes, but as soon as I use them the planes move from the unused items folder to the feature that last used the sketch. For instance as soon as I draw a sketch on a plane, extrude or cut...
I am trying to convert some files over to a .stp format for another group in our company. I am using the export option. I can figure out how to convert the file, and NX4 looks like it is working on the conversion, it brings up a seperate window and shows the conversion, but what is it doing...
Is there a way to add an additional column of data in the parts list that would include the vendor of the part? I know that you can enter the vendor as an attribute, but how do I get it to show up in the BOM????
Thanks
I am working with a model from white hydraulic power. They were kind enough to send me their full CAD file of the motor I will be using. It came as a .stp file. Upon importing it to NX4 it created 33 parts under one main assembly, this overall assembly is the whole motor. Is there a way to...
Does anyone use ordinate dimensioning? It seems very clumsy and difficult to make it do what I want. I have a part that from the top view has radiuses on all 4 corners. I would like to make the intersection of the X and Y sides my ordinate basepoint. I can figure out no way to make it so...
I am trying to run an FEA model of a part that i have built. I get the following error when I try to solve the .sim file.

I am also running Ideas on this machine, so I am wondering if the Nastran solver...
I am at the end of a design and I need to rename all of the parts to the correct format required by our company. They are currently named, drive shaft, base plate, etc.
Is there a good way to do this other than to do a file save as in the part file? When I do this it asks a few questions...
I am trying to use the Manufacturing module to create an output file for our mill. I keep getting the following error.
"No material is defined to cut around islands."
I am using the rough follow operation. Any ideas from anyone?
I am fairly new to NX4 and need some help with the following issue. I open up a main assembly to do some work with the model, then I open up a part here and a part there to work on. A couple of hours latter it seems like every part in the whole assembly is open in its own window, some I have...
Hi,
I am running SW 2007 SP0 Pro on a Athlon 64 3200+ with 1.5 gigs of ram, and a Quadro 1300. For no reason SW will hit 100% on the cpu and will become non responsive for 10-20 seconds. Then all of the sudden it will come back to life and work great for another 2-3 minutes, then this process...
I am trying to learn the FE side of NX4. How do I get my model to mesh??? The icon that should bring up the messing options "3D Tetrahedryl Mesh" is grayed out, and I can't get it to become active. Any ideas????
I need to pull a projected view off of a main view at an angle of 27.13. I have sectioned view with a hole at this angle and need to create a view to give a hole callout. Any ideas??? I have been trying to just eyeball it and get as close as I can, but it is not working to well.
Thanks,
I am trying to make an extruded cut through a body. This cut will create two new bodies leaving me with three total. But NX4 keeps telling me that "tool cannot split target into multiple solids"
Does anyone have a fix for this??? I am trying to illustrate some fabrication methods and will...
I am trying to pattern an extruded cut. I am trying to use the rectangular instance, but the XC and YC planes are not in the correct direction that I want to pattern my feature. Any ideas?????
Thanks
I would like to add tapped holes to the "HOLE" option in NX4. I would imagine that the holes that are available in the "simple, counterbore, and countersink" options have their values stored in a database somewhere. Does anyone know where this database is located? Could I modify this...
Does anyone know how to mate a plane in a part with a plane in the assembly level. The problem is that the plane on the part is not visible when I go to select it in the assembly, unless I make that part the work part, then I cannot make an assembly mate. Any ideas from anyone????
Thanks
I AM TRYING TO MAKE A PART DRAWING, I CLICK THE DRAFTING BUTTON AND IT ASKS FOR A SHEET SIZE, WHICH IS FINE AND DANDY, BUT I WOULD LIKE TO USE THE TEMPLATES THAT ARE INCLUDED WITH NX4, OR FURTHER DOWN THE LINE SOME CUSTOM TEMPLATES. I CAN CLICK ON THE TEMPLATES ON RESOURCE BAR, BUT IT MAKES A...
