What is the role of SPINE in swept command in NX?
ANS:
Use a spine curve to control the orientation of the section strings and to avoid distortions caused by the uneven distribution of the parameters on the guides. A spine string works best when it is normal to the section strings.
A spine is a curve such that the profile is always on a plane perpendicular to the spine.
Also the Spine curve controls the length of the resultant surface.
