October 17, 2018 by mechanicaleng blog Leave a Comment

In siemens nx modeling, scale body command use to scale solid or sheet bodies.  There are three scaling methods: uniform, axisymmetric, general.

Where do I find it?

From menu: Insert -> Offset / scale -> scale body.

From home tab: Feature group -> More gallery -> Offset/scale gallery -> scale body.

How to use scale body command.

1. Select insert -> offset/scale -> scale body.

2. In the scale body dialog box. In type list, you can select:

Uniform: Scales uniformly in all directions.

Axisymmetric: Scales symmetrically with a specified scale factor, about a specified axis.

General: Scales with different factors in the X, Y, Z directions.

In this example, I will select uniform.
