I am looking for a 3D model of an ASCO pilot operated slide valve U8401B101 and have not been able to find one. What do ya'll (Texas term for Yuz Guys) do? I thought I would check here first before modeling one. I looked thru the SolidWorks design library with no success.
Thanks in advance...
We are using ASME Y14.5M-1994 (R2004) on our detail drawings and I have a question. I am being told that the standard says one can use the old style datum reference (I.E.: -A-) under the new standard. Is this true? I have not been able to find this statement in the standard yet.

I have run into this situation before (Using SW2007) and have yet to figure out the best/easiest method to do this. I have a round boss created with revolve and now would like to add a threaded hole in the center of that boss. System will not allow choosing the center point using the revolve...
We are running SW2007 on a PC and are modeling gears. The initial model would be the blank (Gear w/o teeth.) and has its own drawing. Then we take that blank and add teeth and it becomes another part number with its own drawing.

I am creating (NX3 on a PC) drawing formats with our new logo. I will eventually convert these format files into patterns and templates, but for now they are just NX part files.
I inserted the .jpg logo file like this: Insert > Image > Browse to .jpg file and selct it > I then resize the logo...
We are using SolidWorks 2007 on Dell PC's on a network. One of our designers will create an assembly using items out of the Design Library / Toolbox / Ansi Inch fastener lineup and mate the hardware. They save the file and close the file. (Note: The assembly is saved to a common shared T:\ drive...
I have just finished our new "B" size format and saved it as B_Size_Detail.SLDDRW. It has a rearranged titleblock and our new logo. Can I somehow import this data into a Saved AS old style C_Size format and swap out the different parts (Lines, text, logo, etc...).

I have not used AutoCAD for over two years now and I have been tasked with placing our company drawing formats in AutoCAD LT 2008. I have searched this forum and the AutoCAD Help to no avail. I was successful in importing the drawing format files from UG/NX, but the format line weights need to...
We are about to have TeamCenter Express installed and we currently have gone to NX5 from NX3. I have used TeamCenter at previous jobs so I am somewhat familiar with its use.
We are looking at incorporating the revision level into our part number scheme (i.e.: T0101AS01A with "the last "A"...
I can find model threading for holes, but I cannot for external surfaces. Can external threads be modeled? If not what does one do to have a thread specified on external surfaces?

I have opened a new part and created two plates so I can try the weld function. I have the Weld Assistant on my menu bar. Now when I select one of the weld choices nothing happens. Is this a module I may not have rights to use or do I need to set something.

Well thanks to everyone that provided me the answer to running two NX versions at the same time. It worked and I have set all my customer defaults and set up my Toolbar Menu Layouts in the newly loaded NX5.
What I would like to do now is have a new user be able to use my "Saved" Toolbar Menu...
We are currently using NX3 on Dell PC computers running Windows XP Pro. Can we also load NX5 and have both versions on our PCs at the same time?
If both are loaded would we only be able to use one or the other?
The reason initially to do this would be so we can work on our current projects in...
I have been given the task of determining which of the maintenance proposal products we actually need. Can someone please enlighten me on what the "NX M-1 Dsgn (FL)" and "NX Advanced Designer Bundle" actually are?
Thanks for all your answers in advance.

We are a small company with only four UG/NX3.0 Native users at this time. We are currently looking at some form of management system that will help us keep control of our growing part and drawing list. Express is diffenently a solution, but with tight budgets, is there a product that would allow...
We are running NX3 Native on Dell PCs and I have recently created some UDFs. In my learning process I created some that were not as intended so I deleted the .cgm and .prt files from the proper folder. My question is, these deleted names still appear in my Library window so how do I clean it up...
