I was just wonder how much UG costs and how it compares to something like mastercam for similar applications. They have been machining model propellers 4 axis for a long time(same outside guy). They have a 5 axis haas vr-11 that they got for a large job last year (outside contractor programs when needed).
I guess they use the UG for design purposes. They were also supposed to possibly get mastercam last year but same thing, got to clear the cost with the parent company. They are programming with something called CAMAX but have UG but no post at this point, (supposedly trying to get the cost signed off on kind of thing).

They are a model shop and they have a designer or engineer generate code only for surfacing operations that are basically just the code then machinist deals with everything else, (setting feed/speed, right tool numbers, making sure when it starts it doesn't plunge into material, then pray to god about stepover, plunging etc. Company i just started with is in total disarray from a programming standpoint. I have extensive experience with mastercam. I'm not looking to purchase NX, but am suprised as it thought it may cost more than the responses indicate. I think Solid Edge flies under the radar a bit more(its almost identical) since UG is making money on both sides and Solid Works really pushed the educational side of it, much like Autocad did 10-15 years ago. I somehow or other ended up talking to one of the upper ups at UG and she flat out told me, "I don't care if you buy Solid Works or Solid Edge, we're making money either way". My take on it, it was very impressive though, had some great features, but it just didn't get simple enough for the quick and dirty.Īlso, from my salesmonkey experience, solid edge is cheaper, by far than solid works, and solid edge is UG, and they supply the kernel to solid works.

It took the expert monkey longer to draw a few simple lines to cut some steps in softjaws than it did to program a full mold. The one thing I didn't like about it, it was ALL 3d, you want to code out a few simple cuts, huge pain in the ass. The monkey actually knew what he was doing, they were at a conference in El Paso.
Prof.Actually had an NX salesrep and monkey show up a few years ago. Written with the tutorial point of view and the learn-by-doing theme, the textbook caters to the needs of both novice and advanced users of NX 12.0 and is ideally suited for learning at your convenience and pace.

Both these chapters are available for free download. In addition, a new chapter on basic concepts of GD&T has also been added in this textbook. To make the users understand the concepts of Mold Design, a chapter on mold designing of the plastic components is available in the book. Keeping in mind the requirements of the users, the textbook at first introduces sketching and part modeling in NX 12.0, and then gradually progresses to cover assembly, surfacing, and drafting.
Also, in this book, the author emphasizes on the solid modeling techniques that improve the productivity and efficiency of the user. After reading the textbook, the user will be able to create parts, assemblies, drawing views with bill of materials, and learn the editing techniques that are essential to make a successful design. In this textbook, about 39 mechanical engineering industry examples are used as tutorials and an additional 34 as exercises to ensure that the users can relate their knowledge and understand the design techniques used in the industry to design a product. The textbook covers all major environments of NX with a thorough explanation of all tools, options, and their applications to create real-world products.
Siemens NX 12.0 for Designers is a comprehensive textbook that introduces the users to feature based 3D parametric solid modeling using the NX 12.0 software.
