Unigraphics (NX)
Unigraphics (also called as UG or NX) is an advanced CAD/CAM System.
This software is very much suited with Teamceter engineering PLM tool. No other PLM and Design tool is superior than this. Both are owned by Siemens software now. Many Big companies are using UG as their important software to Design/Draft their components/assemblies.
I cannot give the basic training for UG. For Basic modeling in UG please refer the following sites.
