Hướng dẫn cài đặt Unigraphic NX 8.0

Về cách cài đặt thì hoàn toàn giống với NX7.5 . Nghĩa là cần cài cả UGSLicensing trong Host server để kích hoạt và Start Server thành công . Khi chạy file Launch của NX8.0 thì phần đánh dấu trong hình là phần chúng ta cần cài đặt vào ổ cứng :

Đầu tiên càiNX trước (hay UGSLicensing trước cũng vẫn được) :

setup nx8

Click Next và chọn Typical để cài đặt đầy đủ các Feature của NX :

Chọn vị trí cài đặt trên ổ cứng :

setup nx8

Ở bước này source cài sẽ tự động điền tên của PC vào nên các bạn cứ để như mặc định :

setup nx8

Chọn ngôn ngữ , các bạn cứ để English như mặc định và click Next :

setup nx8

Bước này source cài sẽ hiển thị lại một lần nữa những tùy chọn mà bạn đã chọn khi cài đặt ở các bước trước , nếu không có gì cần thay đổi thì các bạn cứ nhấn càiđể bắt đầu cài đặt :

setup nx8

Copy các Folder DRAFTINGPLUS, NXCAE_EXTRAS, NXNASTRAN, NXPLOT and UGII chép đè vào các Folder tương ứng theo đường dẫn C:\Program Files\Siemens\NX 8.0 (ổ C là ổ đã chọn để cài đặt NX)
Đến đây thì chúng ta đã hoàn thành phần cài đặt NX , tiếp theo chúng ta cần cài đặt thêm License Server để kích hoạt Server của Host Server

setup nx8

Click Next và chọn vị trí cài đặt (nên để như mặc định)

setup nx8

Click Browser và chỉ đường dẫn tới file NX8.0.lic trên ổ cứng (file này nằm trong folder UGSLicensing của Cr-ack
Chú ý : đường dẫn trong hình là nơi mình thường lưu file Lic của NX khi cài đặt để dễ quản lý nên vị trí này không phải là bắt buộc , các bạn có thể chứa file Lic ở bất kỳ nơi nào nhưng khi đã cài rồi thì không được xóa file Lic hay di chuyển đi nơi khác , vì nó sẽ làm cho UGSLicensing mà bạn đã cài đặt mất đi đường dẫn tới file Lic này . Vì vậy đây là lý do mình để file Lic này ở trong nơi mình cài đặt NX trên ổ cứng để tránh bị thay đổi hay xóa mất mà dẫn đến lổi và không thể khởi động được NX

setup nx8

Chạy file lmtools.exe theo đường dẫn C:\Program Files\UGS\UGSLicensing (ổ C là ổ cài đặt NX) . Chuyển qua Tab Start/Stop/Reread và click Stop Server như hình

setup nx8

Copy file ugslmd.exe nằm trong Folder UGSLicensing của Cr-ack (file này nằm chung thư mục với file Lic) chép đè lên file tương ứng theo đường dẫn C:\Program Files\UGS\UGSLicensing (ổ C là ổ đà chọn để cài đặt NX).
Cuối cùng chúng ta chạy lại file lmtools.exe . Ở Tab Start/Stop/Reread , đánh dấu vào tùy chọn Force Server Shutdown , sau đó click vào Start Server để bắt đầu chạy Server , nếu nó hiện thông báo phía dưới là Server Start Successful là chúng ta đã chạy Server và Cr-ack NX8.0 thành công . Giờ thì chúng ta chỉ việc chạy NX và khám phá những chức năng mới của NX8.0 thôi

Advantages of cad

1.Definition.
Cad – computer aided design: These are softwares that people can use for make plans, drawings, edit drawings,… by computer.Before the age of computers, drawings were drafted by hand. CAD is more efficient because the software records lines as vectors based on mathematical equations. Portions of a drawing can be twisted, stretched, or moved. The picture as a whole will automatically adjust.
2. Advantages of CAD.
+ Create and edit the drawing easy:
+ Switch between two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) views.
+ Zoom in and out for close-up and distant views.
+ Rotate images to view them from different perspectives.
+ Change the scale of images: When one value changes, related values are automatically adjusted.
+ Manipulate the shape of images: Changing one portion of an image automatically changes the entire picture.
+ Increase accuracy.
+ Save and sent drawing easy.
+ Can analyse, calculation durability of sample –> design down time

History of unigraphics

NX, also known as NX Unigraphics or usually just U-G, is an advanced CAD/CAM/CAE software package developed by Siemens PLM Software.
NX is one of the world’s most advanced and tightly integrated CAD/CAM/CAE product development solutions. Spanning the entire range of product development, NX delivers immense value to enterprises of all sizes. It simplifies complex product designs, thus speeding up the process of introducing products to the market.
The NX software integrates knowledge-based principles, industrial design, geometric modeling,advanced analysis, graphic simulation, and concurrent engineering. The software has powerful hybrid modeling capabilities by integrating constraint-based feature modeling and explicit geometric modeling. In addition to modeling standard geometry parts, it allows the user to design complex free-form shapes such as airfoils and manifolds. It also merges solid and surface modeling techniques into one powerful tool set.
+ It is used, among other tasks, for:
Design (parametric and direct solid/surface modelling)
Engineering analysis (static, dynamic, electro-magnetic, thermal, using the Finite Element Method, and fluid using the finite volume method).
Manufacturing finished design by using included machining modules.
NX is a direct competitor to Creo Elements/Pro, CATIA, SolidWorks and Autodesk Inventor.
HISTORY:
1969: UNIAPT was released by a software company then called United Computing, UNIAPT was one of the world’s first end-user CAM products.
1973: The company purchased the Automated Drafting and Machining (ADAM) software code from MGS in 1973. The code became a foundation for a product called UNI-GRAPHICS, later sold commercially as Unigraphics in 1975.
1976 McDonnell Douglas Aircraft buys Unigraphics.
1981: Unigraphics was released, marking the group’s first true 3D modeling hardware and software offering.
1991: During a period of financial difficulties McDonnell Douglas sells Unigraphics to EDS which at that time is owned by General Motors.Unigraphics becomes GM’s corporate CAD system.
1992: Over 21,000 seats of Unigraphics are being used worldwide.
1996: Unigraphics V11.0 is released. Added Industrial Design and Modeling enhancements including Bridge Surface, Curvature Analysis for Curve and Surfaces, Face Blends, Variable Offset Surface, etc. In the area of Assembly Modeling the new capabilities included Component Filters, Faceted Representations, Clearance Analysis between multiple Components, etc. Also this release included a fully integrated Spreadsheet linked to Feature-Based Modeling.
2002 First release of the new “Next Generation” phiên bản of Unigraphics and I-deas, called NX. This will eventually bring the functionality and capabilities of both Unigraphics and I-DEAS together into a single consolidated product.
2007 Introduction of Synchronous Technology in NX 5.
A complete history exists on the Unigraphics Virtual Museum.
NX 7.5 is the current release.
