Importing an NX File

(The information in this topic contains file-specific information for the "General Import Procedure" covered in the "Importing CAD Data" topic.)

PC-DMIS allows you to translate an NX (previously Unigraphics) file and import it into a PC-DMIS measurement routine. This type of import differs from interfacing directly with the NX CAD file described in the "Direct CAD Interfaces" documentation.

You can choose to import a .prt file.

If you have an NX model with global tolerances, PC-DMIS applies those tolerances to non-basic dimensions without tolerances during the model import.
