Can someone run me thru the process of exporting a simple STEP file out of Wildfire 2.0 please? I am a UG user and have a friend that is using Pro/E (WILDFIRE 2.0) and we do not see any of the options to EXPORT or IMPORT step files (nor .iges, .X_T etc etc).
If you can respond with a simple...
Hello, I am curious how to display the geometry created within NX9 more defined (less "choppy"). I know this will have to do with a tolerance setting somewhere, I just dont know where to find the setting. For example when I display a cylinder it appears as a 16 sided shape at the edges when...
I am working in NX8. I have a curve that I would like to OFFSET, making it larger in diameter so to speak. I dont see an easy way to do this using the Offset Curve function, can this be done? I have attached my file for reference and would really appreciate some advice on a quick way of doing...
I have a surface that I would like to enlarge keeping obviously the same general shape. It is a surface off of a parasolid that was imported so it is a dumb solid. When I use ENLARGE option it gives me an undesired shape. What would be the best and most efficient way to do this? Curious to see...
Hello all,
I have some geometry that I need to extend .010" from approximate points. I am curious of the easiest way to do this and keep the existing geometry tangent to the section being extended. Can anyone give me some pointers on how to do this easily? I have attached section with note in...
I would like to constrain a round "tooling ball" to the surface of a block. Is there an easy way to do this, do both components need to be in an assembly and use assembly constraints? If so, what is the procedure to do this? Any advice would be appreciated thank you.
I cant seem to create a simple shape here. I am trying to create a tapered cone on a radial curve. Which is the best/simplest way to do this you think? I am using Sweep/Swept to do it but gives an undesired flat section in my cone shape. See attached JPEG for sketches created to attempt this...
I have an assembly and I have started a drawing prt. file and added my assembly to it. Now, I want to only show certain components in views. How can I get only the components I want to show in certain views? Do I have to have them all on seperate layers or is there an easier way? Thank you.
Are there any people here that use mold wizard on a regular basis? I would like to see how beneficial it is to you versus just creating a mold design from a "set aside library" of non parametric components. What I mean by non-parametric components is, we have a library of just part files with...
I am working in NX7.5 and I have a sketch I want to edit. Every time I go to edit it, it wants to edit it in "Direct Sketch" I would like to just go into the sketch environment to edit the sketch, how do I do that? Thank you.
I am working in NX6. I am creating a surface for a parting line shut-off and in this JPEG I have attached I ended up with a "ripple" in my surface. I fight thru these ripples often times and basically I am looking for new ways of fixing the geometry more quickly. How would YOU remove this...
I am using NX6. Is it possible in sketch, to use the "quick extend" option on an "added existing curve". It doesnt seem to work and Im wondering if I need to change a setting or something. Thanks everybody.
I am working in NX6. This is probably simple, I saved a WCS location using "Save WCS". Since then Ive moved my WCS back to 0,0,0. Now I want to put it back to the saved location, how do I do that? Also when Im done I want to delete it, it shows up in my drawings. Thank you.
I am curious how to go about creating a custom drawing border and title block. Should you create it in the drawing itself or as a sketch in view or in modeling? Im not sure where to start here. Just curious what the ideal way to do this would be. I do not want to "inherit" others drawing...
Does anyone know of any good KeyCreator 9.0 books that can be purchased? At my current place of employment we design in Unigraphics and import the design into KeyCreator 9.0 for the shop to review and nit pick us. Also does anyone out there design plastic injection molds in KeyCreator 9.0 and...
The company I am currently working with does not currently have the Shape Studio license. We do complex surface modeling creating plastic injection mold parting lines. We import in a customers IGES file with a designated parting line and have to construct a surface off of it that can take alot...
