Prerequisites: PRDE 1520

(replaces PRDE 2500 and PRDE 2510 together but does not equate to either course separately)

This course is designed for the current user of NX. The student will develop parts using expressions, interpart relations, surfacing features, and develop assemblies using advanced techniques. No credit after PRDE 2510.

Contact Hours: 6

South Campus

OUTCOMES AND OBJECTIVES
Outcome 1: Upon completion of this course, students will use the NX Expression interface.

Objectives: Using the Interpart Relations tools in NX the learner will:

Use selected menus, modeling the part within the time allowed.
Use selected options, modeling the part within the time allowed.
Develop and use selected customized tool bars, modeling the part within the time allowed.

Outcome 2: Upon completion of this course, students will use the Interpart Relations tools in NX.

Objectives: Using the NX Expression interface the learner will:

Use the menus to maintain associative properties within the time allowed.
Use the options to hold properties within the part.
Use the menus to substitute relations of a part.

Outcome 3: Upon completion of this course, students will use the Surfacing interface in NX.

Objectives: Using the Surfacing interface in NX the learner will:

Use the selected menus within the time allowed to develop structured surfaces.
Use the selected options within the time allowed to properly develop a part.
Demonstrate the proper techniques to edit a part.

Outcome 4: Upon completion of this course, students will demonstrate the ability to use analysis tools.

Objectives: Using the analysis tools the learner will:

Use the selected menus to complete the project within the time allowed.
Use the options to modify a model within the time allowed.
Create a part with the time allowed.
