Siemens NX Tutorial | Deformable Parts, with external references (for tubes and cables)

[@AlojzyZyrokompas]

Great tutorial! Thank You.

[@samirarad9362]

Very good, thank you for videos.

[@alirezasaedi2613]

Very nice

It was difficult, but interesting and educational. Thank you

[@learnNX]

Thanks for watching. Yes, it's a complex topic, were you still able to follow all the steps?

[@СергейСабуров-л8ы]

@@learnNX Good afternoon. Yes, I followed all the steps, but the second time I had to roll back, I couldn’t cope with two boxes, but then everything worked out

Hello, thank you for the very clear material. Do you have tutorial about how to use the mechanical routing and logical routing application?

[@learnNX]

Unfortunately, nothing current. There is hardly any demand for the topic.

[@arniko2762]

@@learnNX Understood, nonetheless thank you for all the other tutorials.

[@Nucleon447]

Is it possible to constrain the tube length (outside the routing environment) and how?

[@learnNX]

Yes, look here: learnnx.com/course-assemblies/b2a-9/

First .., Thank you for make all this and just give to us. In this Lesson above I could reproduce the first but not the second. The CSYS Datums of only one Plate simply don't appear in the assembly ! I don't understand why ?!! And .., specially in this one I realized that there are a lot of "why's" that should be said in order we better understand the concept ! So., I suggest you redo this one or make another with deeper details. Once again .., thank you !

Please define your questions more precisely. In which minute / second in the video did you have which question? Tip: download the assembly and try the exercise again in the download.

Question B: let's say I have part A which has a hose socket. I also have part B, which is hose itself. Than I make an assembly with hose + part A with one end of the hose connected to the socket (second end should be free). Then I want to use this assembly in the another assembly as a child and connect the other (free) end of the hose with the socket on the secondary (parent) assembly. Is there a way to use deformable part feature in this case and how? I hope it is clear what I'm asking. Thanks for a very good tutorials!

[@learnNX]

But this video shows this using the wires. In the higher-level assembly, either a coordinate system must be selected to define the bridge curve, or a curve path. Depending on which elements you have defined as deformable in the deformable hose.

[@Nucleon447]

The hose comes pre-installed (non deformed state) with one end attached to the component A. At the time of creation of this subassembly, only one hose connection is known. The second end is installed later, on the parent assembly geometry. Hose deformation should be then performed later, at the top level assembly to connect the remaining end. Anyway, I will indeed double check the video to see if I missed something :) Thanks again for the great videos!

[@jacoporocchi3102]

How did you put the assembly navigator to the left?

[@learnNX]

This is shown in the first video on the subject of assemblies on the free learning platform learnnx.com/course-assemblies/. From minute 3:00 to 4:30

Hola amigo bueno videos bien explicados, pero en este algo tengo que haber hecho mal, pues después de hacer el ensamble padre nuevo, cuando utilizo la geometría de enlace WAVE para seleccionar los datum no puedo, se me marca un plano, el punto donde se ponen SISC o un eje y no los tres ejes del datum, todo lo anterior muy bien pero aquí estoy atascado y no puedo seguir, a partir de minuto 23 gracias

[@learnNX]

Change the selection to CSYS

[@IanKen-c7b]

@@learnNX Gracias profe al final encontré que tenia que seleccionar el CSYS en los filtros y en la geometría de enlace WAVE Datum y solucionado

[@samirarad9362]

Very very hard.
