To Assemble an NX File into a Creo Assembly Model
1. Open an assembly.
2. Click Component > Assemble > Assemble. The Open dialog box opens.
3. Select NX File (*.prt) in the Type box. You can also set the file type to All Files (*), Creo Files (.prt, .asm, .drw, .frm, .mfg, .lay, .sec, .dgm, .rep, .mrk, .int, .g, .cem), or Part (*.prt).
4. Select an NX .prt file from the current directory or browse to select the NX file from another location.
 
* The Open dialog box displays Open as the default option for NX files. You can open and assemble NX files as non-Creo models by default in the existing assembly.
5. Select Import to import the NX model and assemble it as an imported component in the existing assembly. The Import New Model dialog box opens.
6. Select an import profile from the Profile list and click Details to open the import profile editor, NX — Import Profile, and customize the import profile settings if required. The Enable ATB option is selected by default in the import profile and the Import New Model dialog box.
7. Click OK in the Import New Model dialog box. The import log file is automatically generated in the working directory. The Component Placement tab opens.
8. Accept the default coordinate system location or select a coordinate system to position the geometry.
9. Package the imported part or subassembly component into the assembly or add associative placement constraints.
10. Click on the Component Placement tab.
