Hi Im using NX7.5, my question is Can you set a MCS with is parametric and can be automatically updated from a datum where the orientation changes due repositioning relative a parametric sketch. I need to be able to position a series of 20 blocks around what would be a nominal diameter. each...

Within NX7.5 we build tool model assemblies downloaded from the suppliers. These models are then saved Native on each PC in C:\Program Files\UGS\NX 7.5\MACH\resource\library\tool\graphics. Tool data created in Manufacturing using same name as the model and exported to tool library. Then...

Using NX6. Can anyone please advise on the proceedure to allow users to save and access manufacturing tool data to/from a common tool library other that the standard defined in the UGII_ENV.dat file. This to include exporting/importing tool data to/from library and the use of tool.prt models...

Using turning mode in NX7.5, I define the turning tool, then use TEACH MODE to create the paths,as Im creating the paths I keep getting the message "Failed to find file using current options,part left unopened". ive tried changing Assembly Load options but nothing seems to stop this happening...

NX7.5 Millturning conical surface using VARIABLE CONTOUR, have unwrapped the face and created sketch around the bosses to control the tool path AND WRAPPED the sketch back to the conical. Problem Ive encountered is the PROJECTION VECTOR when applying stock. The paths with stock added are not...

USING NX6 I have a component where we are to machine a scaled version of the original solid body (0.9% of full size approx)to accomodate undesize forging. Its a test machining process to establish best proactice. We need to machine the scaled version and then a full size so I need to...

Hi Ive defined as form tool to use withing NX6 turning,problem is when I come to generate a toolpath I get the error message "Invalid tool type for turning tool" The opition to define a form tool is given in the Create Tool form but doesnt seem to allow it to be used for a toolpath? Any...

Is there any way I can output thread milling setting the "Motion Output" to linear only, its a bugbear of mine that our company only allows this type of motion. Thanks Currently using NX6

Any advice please Using Nx6 I need to produce toolpath with slowdown in corners in a angled pocket with corner and fillet rads. Using cavity mill I can get it to reduce when going around a corner but it doesnt cut the geometry as Id like (constant stepdown)I need to use with Scallop controlling...

Using Nx6 Hi Ive used turning quite extensivly but have never used the 3d model option of creating the turning_workpiece section using stage sketches instead. Im now looking into option of using Forging scanned facetted body (with side bosses) as my blank and Stage 3d model as my turning...

Im using NX6 on hp laptop, my problem is Ive lost my information window. Its there when I connect to monitor but when I use laptop only i cant display any info. Ive tried F4 but doesnt show on screen. any help much appreciated Currently using NX6

Using Nx6 After producing turning tool path it seems to create profiles that match the turning profile, as if its creating in process section of the operation just completed. How can I stop this from happening please? Thanks Currently using NX6

Have just moved to new employer and have to set up NX6 on laptop, this was Ok but I have a problem where I cant export a tool to library. Just getting error message "UNABLE TO UPDATE FILE". The idea is to enable me to export a tool with the same name as s too part file which contains the model...

Is it possible to convert a TIF file to a CGM file and then import that into unigraphics to enable usable data. Been given a tif file of a drawing and told its the only data available, not enough info to model so going back to old method of scaling the drawing to full size and measuring. Using...

Apologies for posting this question here but Im struggling to find material details for H.R Crown max, Im looking for machining speeds and feeds. Any help would be much appreciated. Dennis

I need to design a heat treatment fixture, my problem being that I need to work out size achieved at a tempreture of 700deg C for Stainless 316. I can only get the coefficient of expansion for this material up to 500deg. From that data it would appear to be 0.0000195 I know its not a Ug...

Hi Im using NX6 my problem is that I need to output drilling paths as POLAR moves, is there any way of doing that from within NX Many thanks

I have a model with a blend rad where I need to generate a control curve along its centreline is there anyway of doing it automaticaly. Usually I can manage with creating sections thru the geometry, but doing it this way doesnt necessarilly give me exact results. Any advise much appreciated...

Im working in NX6. Ive a problem where when I now open my manufacturing part it opens OK as normal, all my toolpaths are generated as they were previous day. The toopaths are created using linked geometry form assembled construction parts. I now have problem where if I save the part(without...

Can you upgrade a menu structure from previous releases? The problem I have is that in NX6 manufacturing/turning I have machined a part using template from previous similar job which was produced using NX5. I now need to alter the program in NX6 but the menu structure is not the same as if...
