NX for Design

Summary


Details

After exporting a Parasolid file from Solid Edge, importing it into NX does not retain the assembly configuration visible in Solid Edge even though "Flatten Assembly" is not used.

Reproduced Steps:

1. Export a Parasolid from Solid Edge


2. In NX open a new part > File > Import > Parasolid ( with turning “Flatten Assembly option” OFF)


Result:


Solution

The behavior is working as expected.

Workaround:

Please open the Parasolid file directly with File > Open, not using Import command.


Notes

The design for loading Parasolid files exported from Solid Edge into NX

File > Open:create NX parts for every Parasolid parts

File > Import : Only create one new NX part for every Parasolid assembly and imports the bodies into the created NX part.
