NX How to record mass properties for an assembly in managed mode via part_utility

After importing several assemblies into Teamcenter from within NX Manager by using  File-->Import Assembly into Teamcenter, you may want to Generate Weight Data to get available in Teamcenter.

If you want to store the Weight Data of the recent imported assemblies in Teamcenter, you will need to open the assembly in NX and manually save the assemblies.

Solution

There is a command called part_utility , that will force the record of mass properties via command line, so you can create an script and generate the mass properties for several assemblies.

The basic syntax to be used would be:

part_utility.exe -managed_mode=yes u=user p=password -g=dba -part=@DB/partname/Revision
-record_part_data=yes


-record_part_data=yes      will do the record of mass properties


After that the Mass properties are stored under the UGMaster-->Named References
