Siemens NX 2020 for Designers is a comprehensive book that introduces the users to feature based 3D parametric solid modeling using the NX software. The book covers all major environments of NX with a thorough explanation of all tools, options, and their applications to create real-world products. More than 40 mechanical engineering industry examples and additional 35 exercises given in the book ensure that the users properly understand the solid modeling design techniques used in the industry and are able to efficiently create parts, assemblies, drawing views with bill of materials as well as learn the editing techniques that are essential to make a successful design. In this edition, four industry specific projects are also provided for free download to the users to practice the tools learned and enhance their skills. Keeping in mind the requirements of the users, the book first introduces sketching and part modeling and then gradually progresses to cover assembly, surfacing, and drafting. To make the users understand the concepts of Mold Design and GD&T, two chapters are added in this book. Written with the tutorial point of view and the learn-by-doing theme, the book caters to the needs of both novice and advanced users of NX and is ideally suited for learning at your convenience and pace. Salient Features Comprehensive coverage of NX concepts and techniques. Tutorial approach to explain the concepts and tools of NX. Detailed explanation of all commands and tools. Hundreds of illustrations for easy understanding of concepts. Step-by-step instructions to guide the users through the learning process. More than 40 real-world mechanical engineering designs as tutorials, 35 as exercises, and projects with step-by-step explanation. Four real world projects available for free download. Additional information throughout the book in the form of notes and tips. Self-Evaluation Tests and Review Questions at the end of each chapter to help the users assess their knowledge.

Advanced Unigraphics NX2 Modeling and Assemblies is the first book to organize advanced NX2 techniques by job type. The Advanced NX2 book is designed for intermediate and advanced users of NX2 software who want to learn professional techniques which will help them work smarter and faster. This Unigraphics book covers advanced topics in modeling and assemblies, and special techniques required to render geometry from various industries. The book specifically focuses on complex surfacing techniques, sheet metal parts, advanced assemblies and advanced techniques to design consumer products and injection molded parts. Content for this Advanced NX2 book is based on requests we received from numerous readers of our popular basic books, Practical Unigraphics NX and NX2 Modeling for Engineers. Like our training classes, this book is project-oriented. The exercises provided in this book are classroom tested, and are guaranteed to give you the knowledge you need to learn advanced NX2 techniques.

NX 8.5 Basic to Advanced book, the newly revised version of our previous CAD training text books. Design Visionaries is an engineering consulting firm that performs many design projects great and small, including industrial design, product design and engineering analysis. Our customers entrust us with the design of medical devices, aerospace components, heavy machinery, consumer products, etc. The methods outlined in this book go beyond an academic use of the software. They are tricks of the trade that come from thousands of hours of actual use of the software to design some of the most difficult products in the world. In addition, Design Visionaries offers world class on-site training which enables us to develop and evolve our training material to provide maximum benefit. Please enjoy this text, and we invite you to log on to our websites - designviz.com and nxtutorials.com, where you can download the part files pack that accompanies this book. There are also additional free materials, other advanced materials, products, and goodies.
