Trying to model an ANSI Roller Chain. Short of modeling each components, and building the assembly, constraining each piece to a path that's the shape of the sprockets it will go on, I thought I would use the Instance Geometry -> Along Path function to try and create the set of links, then...
I'm having a hard time figuring out what the proper way is to go about creating component arrays in assemblies. If you create an array, it places the components as you want, but it doesn't constrain any of the child components, even if the parent component is fully constrained. Doesn't that...
Could someone give me a quick run down on what the major differences between these 3 functions are, and what they're best suited for?
I've actually used all three, mainly just when one method didn't work, but I'm trying to actually understand which one would be better suited for which type of...
Trying to figure out if I can use an ordinate dimension in the Sketch environment to place hole locations. It looks like I cannot; ordinate dimensions only in drafting/drawings.
Is this correct, or it there some secret menu/icon I'm missing?
We've been rolling out NX/Teamcenter since the beginning of the year. We're working on a new product, so much of the new components we've been starting from scratch in NX. However we do have a large assembly that was completed in SolidWorks that is part of the product. Just trying to figure out...
