Siemens Nx UG Tutorials for Beginners

NX CMM Inspection Programming. NX softwares CMM Inspection Programming capabilities provide a off-line programming that reduces programming time, frees up expensive CMM machine resources and ensures fast responses to design changes. By combining industry knowledge and best practices with process automation, NX CMM Inspection Programming streamlines the entire CMM inspection program development process from feature definition and path creation to program generation and validation. Integration with Teamcenter software ensures that the correct revisions of parts are programmed and executed on the shop floor.

NX7.5 CAM Tutorial: Contour Surface Area Machining. This video shows Contour Surface Area 3 axis Machining in detail.

Example of a NC program including sub-programming for a multiple part setup including on-machine probing, which writes measured values into external log files which are then passed to a quality system (CAQ).  The complete NC programming task is done with NX CAM from Siemens and UserCycle, which is a NX addon tool for cycle programming. Also the machine simulation is running under ISV, the integrated simulation and verification module of NX. Only one station of the part family setup is programmed, the other 3 part programs are create automatically through the postprocessor. All probing operation are created as machine cycles. The NC program and the simulation are done for a DMC 60 U with Siemens 840D solutionline control.

This NX 7.5 video tutorial shows how to use the Gears Coupler, Rack and Pinion coupler in NX motion simulation module

This NX 7 video tutorial shows a technique of using one sketch to create multiple features having different extrude offset and draft. The target of this tutorial is to create bosses with screw holes. This tutorial also shows the creation of electrical contacts in a cordless drill as an example to show, how to use the Offset options of the Extrude command.

This NX 7.5 video tutorial shows  "how to use part families inside Siemens NX 7.5". In this tutorial a shackle family has been designed based on the suppliers table dimensions. Using part families concept you can save your time.

This UGS NX4 video tutorial covers the overall process to be followed to design the mold. Topics covered in this video are: Open STEP file Use of design validation tools to check for undercuts, draft, wall thickness, sharp corners, find core cavity region faces Mold design tools such as Project Initialize, Work Piece Dimensions, Cavity Layout, Parting Manager, Patch Loops Selection, Core & Cavity, Mold Base Management, Standar Part Management, Pocket Management are discussed.

In this Nx Beginners Video Tutorial - 3, Basics of Transformations are covered in details. Unigrahics Nx commands covered in this tutorial are Translation (To A Point, Delta, Move, Copy), Scale (Non uniform scale), Rotation About A Point, Mirror Through A Line (Two Points, Exiting Line, Point And Vetor), Rectangular Array, Circular Array, Rotation About a Line, Mirror Through a Plane, Undo Last

This beginners Nx tutorial shows the different methods of changing the views, creating different curves such as line, Arc/Circle, Basic Curves [String mode, Creating 3D curves], Lines and Arcs [Arc Point-Point-Tangent], Rectangle, Polygon.  Applying constraints, Different methods of deleting objects. Window & other selection methods. How to Cancel entity selection. Object Display - Change object color, linetype, line thickness, Work Plane Preferences - Grid On/Off, Snap to Grid, Grid spacing

In this Nx video tutorial, NX User Interface and Menu Options are explain in detail. This is a good starting point for beginners who are first time learning NX. For this tutorial NX 4 is used.

In this NX Tutorial video see how you can verify your machining operations in NX CAM. The G-code driven simulation displays full material removal in your machining environment including the 3D solid model of the machine, fixtures, and tooling. The procedure to do this has been shown in detail in the following video:

This NX Tip video shows how to extrude with intersecting section curves in one feature. This is very useful to construct the complicated ribs for a molded part with single feature. First you have to create a "self-intersecting section" - where curves of the section intersect each other. Then select the curves. Use the Extrude command and give the desired height & select offset to two sided and you will see that the ribs are created. This has been shown in detail in the following video:

Creating a Cutout Using The Swept Command : Commands used in this tutorial are Swept, Trim Body, Grouping, Circular Array. First guide curves and section is drawn & kept ready for swept command. Using swept commands swept surface is created. To create a cutout Trim Body command is used. Group is created for Swept surface & Trim Body. Then circular instances are created by using circular pattern command.
