    Suggested Ways to Model Transition

    Hi NX'rs, I'm attempting to model a component that has a little bit of transition curvature & twist to it. Additionally, the twist & transition has to go from thin to thick area (or vice versa). I attached a screen shot for reference. In this model, I'm attempting to remodel it, making a...

    Designing Airfoils

    Hi NX'rs, I've imported points & splines to make an airfoil profile. I'm looking for more "controllable" methods to modify chord / airfoil lengths, leading / trailing edge radii or any other section of the airfoil. I know points can be dragged around, but this seems dangerous to me...

    Can't Select All Sketch Entities

    Hi Everyone, I created a sketch on a datum plan & used the rectangular feature & fully contrained the sketch. After exiting out of sketch & using the Extrude feature, some of my curve entities are not selectable, even after use filters such as single curve, connected or tangent. What...

    Recreating Profiles from Splines

    Hi NX'ers, I have handful of spline profiles & I wish to either convert them to sketches or recreate them using sketches. What's the best method to use to get accurate profiles & hopefully, won't be to time consuming to constrain the sketches? Thanks Jason M. Unigraphics NX Designer

    Extracting / Capturing Interior Features?

    Hi, Is there a way in NX 6 &/or 7.5 to extract /capture interior features & still have it parametric? If so, what's the process or what are the features to use? Thanks Jason M. Unigraphics NX Designer

    Dimension / Symbol Gap

    Hi NX'ers, I have handful of dims & want to clean up the drawings so that I don't have lines over lines. If I recall correctly in NX 6, there was a symbol to put gaps on dimensons. Now, that I'm on NX 7.5, I can't find the symbol or feature. Perhaps, I don't have my sybmols loaded & if...

    Validating Scan Data

    Hi Users, I'm curious to know how you validate scan data? Our intent is to scan parts, take the profiles, point clouds, etc., them make a paramentric parts. If I have a bunch of imported curves & points, how can I make my model parametric, assuring that my scan curves & points are driving...

    Whwere are the UG / NX Jobs

    Everyday that I look on the job boards, there seems to be less & less Unigraphics NX jobs. Seems like SolidWorks is taking over the CAD market I'm particularly exploring opportunities in the Southeast - Any tips would be great for UG or SolidWorks opportunities. Thanks Jason M. Unigraphics...
