Get better skills in NX CAM with impeller examples

The series explains how to manufacture impeller using manual NX CAM operations. These are rather complex examples, which can be a good material for practicing your skills. We believe that after going through these examples, you will find machining other models in multiaxis easier.

Improve drafting

These series explains how to work better with drafting application. It shows the ways of creating drawings for parametric models, reuse of drafting features and other information.
