I had put a components in an assembly as arrays. I am trying to delete all instances and it won't let me delete them with the following error. Any ideas? Thanks

 

The following component could not be deleted

Installation problems Mac OS X 10.10.5

Hey everyone,

 

I'm using NX11.0 for my study. After hours of trying to install NX11 on my MacBook Pro I'm asking you for help. I already installed XQuartz and Java on my Mac. After completing the installation of NX11 I tried to run NX. NX showed after a few second it's startup screen but it shutdown directly after that. I tried to restart my Mac but it didn't solve the problem. I hope that anyone here can help me.

 

Difference Trim Sheet and Trim Body

$

Hi,

 

I'm currently doing some surfacing work. I had a bit of a pause from NX and did a lot of Alias.

I'm trying to get some of the same (similar) funtionality out of NX10.

 

I noticed some operations in which trim sheet doesn't work - trim body seems to do the trick.

Why is this? What is the difference?

 

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

CV (Knot) Snap in X Form

$

Hi,

 

Another day another issue. Smiley Happy

I'm still trying to get a grasp of what Alias Surfacing funtionalities are morrored in NX and which are not.

One very simple thing is the CV (Knot) Snap. It's a basic functionality in Alias allowing one to snap a control point to the grid (basically useless and irrelevant for NX as there is no grid) to the WCS Planes or to points, curves, edges etc.

 

What I want to do is - I'm working on some sufaces which ar derivative of complex geometries. I want to reduce the complexity so I remove all Spans (Patches). I also remove one half of a symmetric part to further simplify (and just mirror in one operation at the very end).

Naturally I notice that the second row of control points from the edge on which I want to have symmetry vary from the first row. (As you know if they are aligned we have a G1 Continuity and in case of symmetry that's all you need to have G2 along this edge after the mirror.)
Now in Alias I would just align the view to the symmetry plane and snap the CVs in x and then y (up/down and sideways, but not in z - closer/further). Done (and mathematically perfect). I don't think I can do this in NX10 (I got it to work by doing it manually, but it bugs me Smiley Happy ), but I guess that's what the Boundary Constraints are for. Unfortunately I cannot get them to work. I chose G1 or G2, but the CVs stay put... :/ I also get no CV movement out of the edge symmetry tool...?

 

1. What am I doing wrong? (maybe a link to a tutorial? Smiley Happy )
2. What are the other tools?

 

I hope someone can follow my chain of thought... Smiley Happy

 

Thank you in advance.

Unable to map unit definition g/cm^3 for parameter MassPropsDensity

I try to assign Material from Classification library where in MatML dataset defined units for Density in
g/cm^3

 And as result I've got that error - Unable to map unit definition g/cm^3 for parameter MassPropsDensity.

 I also found that units in kg/m^3 works fine, but if I change units to g/cm^3 - this error occure.

I saw one PR on GTAC site with similar problem -PR #:7732439

 Unable to map unit definition mm^2/N(1/MPa) for parameter Volumetric Deformation Constants

 But there is no workaround for that PR, only recommendation to try this in NX11

 
Does workaround for this subject exist?

Variational Revolution

$

I have a cicular part that I need to subtract material from in a variational groove-like design. The trick is, the groove width varies. Its not quite 360 degrees long. I have a start sketch and an end sketch, I want to revolve the start sketch which is a small square and have it smoothly widen around an axis into the end sketch which is a large square on the same rotational plane. I do have x and y coords for this, but it may not come out smooth.

 

What feature could I use for this?

NX> Utilities Vs NX >Preferences; What is the difference and why are they apart?

I’m still unable to clearly distinguish and define a valid reason for this!  Since the differences about their contents are not clear I’ve to always keep looking in one or in the other. I must be missing something!

Any Help?


can't save files

hi guys i am new to nx11 and for some reason i could not save my files in assembly navigator i noticed a padlock indicating the file were read only so had a look at the properties of the folder i was saving the files to and read only was ticked so started a new project and the save directory and at first it was not read only but when i tried to save it went back to the way it was before  so started once again this time i unticked the read only properties in the save folder and it worked but for some reason every new project folder gets the read only property can anyone help

Display quality (Draw precision)

Hello,

 

Simple question this time. I can't seem to find this option.

How do you increase the draw precision.

 

When I zoom in the surfaces are very rough (many sharp endges). I want to be able to see it in ultra fine mode when I zoom. Something like the quality setting in the Reflection Analysis Mode...

 

Thanks in advance,

Reuse Library is slow

$

I'm working with NX 8.5 and Teamcenter.

 

We are going the create a custom component library. In the end we want to have everyting in part families (for the fastners)

But in the beginning we are going to use the existing data.

 

For example a have a hex bolt from iso 4014 in 80 different items (this will be in the future members from the part family)

When i open the folder of the library, where all the different items are in, it will take some time before this is displayed.

 

Is this because of NX in combination with teamcenter?

is there a way to load the components fasters in the member select preview?

 

Curved transport in mechatronics concept designer

how my model should work:

as seen in the picture "curve", my carrier runs from left to right on the blue ties. when it reaches the 90°-curve, the carrier should drive with its right front corner (with its pin on the bottom) into the lane grooves of the curve to turn 90°. The carrier is always driven by the ties as soon as the carrier reaches them.

 

what I tried:

I tried to handle this with a curved transport surface as in picture "transport surface" and defined the curve as a collision body.

 

how it runs:

the carrier drives straight from the first ties and passes the curve -> no curved transport
