LEARN THE NEW, IMPROVED INTERFACE OF UNIGRAPHICS NX5

    /24-7PressRelease/ - SAN JOSE, CA, November 15, 2007 - A new book by Design Visionaries teaches the basic modeling, assemblies and drafting functionality of Unigraphics NX5. Basic and Intermediate NX5 Modeling, Drafting and Assemblies by Stephen Samuel, Anuranjini Pragada and Eric Weeks, is a newly revised version of Design Visionaries' previous book Practical Unigraphics NX4 Modeling, Drafting and Assemblies.

Once again, the latest version of NX has gotten easier to use. The new NX5 menus are structured so that average users are not daunted by the complex choices, yet advanced users can select extremely convenient pull downs that allow access to the most powerful and intricate techniques.

Quickly get up-to-speed with the new NX5 (vastly improved) interface.

This book, a joint effort of the Design Visionaries team, compiles the tips and techniques developed over the years training the engineering community. Using their popular NX, NX2, NX3 and NX4 books as a starting point, the authors have greatly expanded the content, detail and exercises included in this edition. The methods outlined in this book go beyond an academic use of NX5. 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. The exercises provided in this book are classroom-tested and will surely help you learn NX5.

Make NX5 work for you!
