Siemens NX 1899 - Advanced Part Training

Learn to apply draft with the Extrude tool, exploring From Start Limit and From Section options, angle control, per-face values, inward or outward draft, and symmetry choices.

Use advanced options in the revolve tool to convert profiles into solids with open profile smart volume, then apply boolean subtract and offset to achieve a 2 mm thick solid.

Create a sphere with the sphere tool from the home tab by defining the center point and diameter, and use the cylinder tool to define an axis without sketching.

Create a bounding body with the Bounding Body tool, choosing block or cylinder. Select shapes or surfaces, then adjust x, y, z and enable non-aligned minimum body.

activate the swept tool, use the alignment option for two sections, and control points by parameter, arc length, and by point to remove twist and achieve smooth cubic interpolation.

Learn to use the corner setback option in the edge blend tool: activate from the home tab, specify at least three edges with 5 mm, and control setbacks 1–3 independently.

Learn to create partial edge blends in Siemens NX 1899 using the Edge Blend tool, with arc length or stop-short-of-corner controls and length limits via plane, face, or edge.

Create a face type edge draft with active draft tool by selecting an edge, setting an angle, and building a variable draft along edge with points and arc length positions.

Create a parting edge draft using draft tool by splitting the face to create a middle edge, then set parting line with two lines at 35 degrees and enable multi-draft.

Learn to use the Siemens NX pattern feature to create a linear pattern of an extrude with custom spacing, using direction 1 and per-instance spacing.

Explore orientation options in the pattern feature, including circular and linear patterns, follow pattern, same as input, CSYS to CSYS, and follow face for curved surfaces.

Learn to create mirrors of features, faces, or bodies in Siemens NX 1899 using the mirror feature, mirror face, and mirror geometry tools, including selection, planes, and previews.

Learn to use the Extract Geometry tool in Siemens NX with settings for associative options, fix at current timestamp, and hole-free extraction, including region faces, interior edges, and visibility controls.

Learn to isolate a specific object of a feature using the Isolate Object of Feature tool, selecting a proximity object and adjusting the datum plane to switch between multiple outputs.

Learn to split solid bodies using the split body tool in Siemens NX, selecting faces or planes as tools to create multiple new bodies.

Use the split command to create multiple solid bodies, then delete the selected bodies with the delete body tool in Siemens NX, and refine by rollback if needed.

Use the scale body tool to resize solids uniformly, axisymmetrically, or non-uniformly from the home tab, with Show Preview and precise scale points.

Learn to use the Feature Replay tool in Siemens NX to suppress or unsuppress features by timestamp, view step-by-step playback, and manually apply feature sequences.

Activate the feature dimension tool to display and edit specific dimensions in the 3D environment, display as PMI, change color, and modify values without reactivating the feature.

Remove parameters from a solid body using the remove parameters tool in the home tab, edit group, and more, after activating the edit group and confirming the warning.

Learn to use the feature browser in Siemens NX 1899 to browse and review features, dependent expressions, and child features, identify dependencies, and manage complex model relationships.
