dc.description.abstract | In any design process a detailed description and communication of design ideas or specifications is essential. As part of the final design description are the engineering drawings that represent a detailed characterization of the design geometry. In some cases, the final design may be corrupted with additional geometry, which is not part of the problem, and lack of dimensions. In such a case, we will have to remove any unwanted items manually before being able to apply dimensions and constraints to characterize the geometry. Here we develop a software tool, which integrates UGS-NX5 and C++, to improve the characterization process for bidimensional geometry. The tool was successfully applied to several different bidimensional cross-sections; it is effective in the removal of unwanted objects from the geometry and the application of dimensions and constraints to the selected parts within the geometry. This makes the characterization process faster and user-friendly. | en_US |

Parte de la descripción final del diseño son los dibujos de ingeniería que representan la caracterización detallada de la geometría del diseño. En algunos casos el diseño final puede resultar corrupto con geometría adicional, que no es parte del diseño, y falta de dimensiones. En tal caso, tendríamos que remover manualmente cualquier objeto no deseado antes de poder aplicar dimensiones y restricciones para caracterizar la geometría. Aquí desarrollamos una herramienta, que integra UGS-NX5 y C++, para mejorar el proceso de caracterización de geometría bidimensional. Esta herramienta fue aplicada exitosamente a varias secciones bidimensionales; resultó ser efectiva en la remoción de objetos indeseados de la geometría y la aplicación de dimensiones y restricciones a las partes seleccionadas en la geometría. Esto hace que el proceso de caracterización sea más rápido y de fácil aplicación. | en_US |
