ON the tool dialog you can set the tracking point of the tool. This can control if the tool output is from the centerline of the tool or from the tool radius. I would recommend reading the help...

Right click on the operation and select object - transform. You can mirror through a plane or a line.

Yes you can.

Make sure you have write access to the tool library.

From the create tool dialog is an option to Export tool part file. The name of the tool in the library and the file you create...

For a 2 axis cut use Planer mill

for a 3 axis cut use profile 3D

Is he too cheap to spend $295.00?

Why not use the existing ID Symbol set to Oval Box?

This can be done in NX with Planar Milling. Create the boundary at the top of the part and the floor at the bottom. Set the cut pattern to follow periphery and make the stepover extremly large so...

Why not?

Looks like you need to add some geometry to represent the tabs that are left holding the part in the stock.

Add the blocks you need to the initial move event, the move right after the tool change.
You can then control the order of the blocks and what is output.

It really depends on what you have to import. Is it a .dxf or .dwg from from autocad or only a .jpeg image? If all you have is an image file you ill need to convert it to something that NX can...

Be carefull if you Mirror your tool paths in NX. The cut direction changes from climb mill to conventional. If your cutting wood this may not be a problem but if you plan on using cutter...

You can export the Operation Navigator to a spreadsheet or browser from the navigator pop up menu.

Yes this can be done several ways and depends on how the model was built. If it was built in a manner that reflects the manufacturing process than you can create an assembly and link the body at a...

You can create a User Defined tool in NX and use it in a planar profile operation. The advantage is this will allow you to use a "tracking point" and output the tool path from the tracking point. ...

I have programmed water jet and torch cutting machines using NX in the past. I used planer mill operation with a tool that represented the size of the cut. We always created the tool path with an...

Yipiee !! :-)

You can generate tool paths in the background to take advantage of multiple CPUs
NX CAM is not a multi-threaded application

Form tools , User defined tools, are only availabel for use in Planar Profile operations. For Variable contour you ccan use 3,4,5 parameter end mills, ball mills and T-cutters

Have you looked into any community colleges in the area? Many of them teach NX.
Contact Siemens and see if they know any schools that have NX and maybe you can work something out.

No it is not...

It depends on the Drive Method- When using a boundary drive method you can select a cut region start point to indicate where you would like to tool to engage into the cut.

With other drive...

Have you looked at the library of posts on the siemens website?

You may not find a Haas but there should be some mill turns. You will need a linked set of posts for a machine with a Y axis.

You are better off to be off center - how much depends on the tool and the diameter your machining.

No, I don't

When you use the verify either the 2-d or 3-d options there is a setting to save the in process model.

You can save it as part of the current model or into it's own file.

You can use a primitive feature, Block, Cylinder, Cone as the 1st feature. For example create a block and then add a sketch and extrusion to the block. The sketch will be associative to the block...

Keep in mind that a Block is a "Primitive" feature. Unlike other features such as a boss or a pad. I would recommend using a Pad feature instead of a block. You can attach the pad to the extruded...
