Hi everyone,
we are using Siemens NX11 and trying to set up a workflow where flat fabrics are automatically created from a 3D surface.
NX has a very useful feature called "fabric flat pattern". However, the feature is not saved in the feature tree. So, every time the underlying geometry changes, the fabric flat pattern feature has to be re-executed manually.
Here is my question: What is your suggested "best practice" to automate the process of fabric creation for surfaces that are slightly varied? Journal scripting? Programming in NXOpen? Different PLM product like fiber sim?
Thank you very much for your answer in advance.
Regards,
Manuel
