Creating Machining Tabs using Algorithmic Modeling in NX 1953

Algorithmic Modeling is a new module in NX CAD. It provides powerful tools for automated modeling of repetitive features. In this video, we review Algorithmic Modeling in general, and then describe a technique for using Algorithmic Modeling to create a pattern of geometry required for Tab Machining. Tab Machining suspends the part around its periphery so it can be machined complete from a billet. 0:00 - Intro 1:11 - Algorithmic Feature definition 2:36 - Copper Tube 3:49 - Machining Tabs
