UG NX4 for impeller machining - sugessions?

[thirumalkumarn]

dear all,
please help to machine a splitter impeller using nx

at least post sugessions

thank you

[rschap1]

UGS's training for Manufacturing has a very good example of just that, an impeller. Hard to know where to start. Any/lots of UG programming experience?

thanks

Dear holbie one,
Thanks very much,
This is exactly the type i am looking for, could you please eloborate the procedure you used, are you using NX for toolpath generation? if so please post the procedure.

this part was programmed with NUFORM Level-II

NUFORM is a CAM system developed by A.S.Thomas inc over many years

I know you are looking for a UG-based solution, but you either need friendly geometry or need to add some script support to have assurance of non-interfering instructions on a splittered impeller.
