Solid Vision Computer Aided Designing (CAD)
A) NX CAD:
1) Design for the entire product lifecycle:
Manufacturing companies are driven by increasing pressure to develop innovative products in shorter time frames, while maintaining high levels of quality. Even with mature, capable 3D CAD technology, many companies have failed to significantly improve their design processes, and the benefits of lower costs and shorter cycle times remain elusive.

Transformation of product development begins with the design process, which fuels the entire product lifecycle - from simulation and analysis through tooling design, manufacturing, assembly, service and support.

2) Next-generation design technology:
NX from Siemens PLM Software delivers next-generation design tools and technologies that help companies transform product development. Leading-edge design tools work in the context of the total development effort, fully integrating design with the other disciplines that bring products to market in a unified, managed environment.

NX design tools are superior in power, versatility, flexibility and productivity. From innovative Synchronous Technology that unites parametric and history-free modeling to NX Active Mockup for multi-CAD assembly design, NX delivers breakthrough technology that set new standards for speed, performance, and ease of use.

B) SolidEdge CAD:
Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology is the core computer-aided design (CAD) component of the Velocity Series portfolio. It combines the speed and flexibility of direct modeling with precise control of dimension-driven design, to provide the fastest, most flexible design experience possible.

Siemens PLM Software is driving PLM to help smaller customers become more responsive through the introduction of the latest version of Solid Edge. Last year synchronous technology was launched to rave industry reviews. Now see the latest enhancements to the part & assembly environment, as well as a new sheet metal design module. Plus, we've incorporated finite element analysis directly into the CAD environment with Solid Edge Simulation. And Insight now works directly on the latest Microsoft SharePoint platforms.

C) IDEAS CAD (New Multi-CAD Capabilities):
I-deas 12 NX Series features new capabilities for working in a multi-CAD environment. This release leverages UGS' JT Open proven lightweight format for data sharing among various CAD applications. New capabilities include: measure to underlying precise geometry, measure to facet point/line/plane, align instance, create sections, attach product and manufacturing information (PMI), create constraints, and plot/print instances.

"Multi-CAD issues routinely confront major corporations worldwide," said Versprille. "With the release of I-deas 12 NX Series and a number of JT-oriented enhancements, UGS is demonstrating the ability to mix lightweight and native databases in an assembly. This approach represents a major competitive advantage for UGS and a very practical solution for companies faced with multi-CAD environments."

Workflow Productivity Enhancements:
I-deas 12 NX Series features user-driven productivity enhancements in design, assembly, 3D annotation, drafting and simulation.

"I-deas 12 NX Series addresses many of the user communities' top priorities and provides immediate benefit in terms of productivity enhancements and multi-CAD access," said Monica Schnitger, senior vice president of Market Analysis, Daratech Inc. "The release also furthers UGS' vision for migrating its I-deas base to NX with sophisticated tools to evaluate the impact of such a change. As a result, users seem increasingly able to migrate."

"We create many section views on our large assembly drawings," said Egon Welter, CAD manager, Siemens. "The ability to create 3D section views is a huge productivity boost, and the new 'section of a section' is a great enhancement."

Moving Towards Full NX Implementation:
With the release of I-deas 12 NX Series, UGS provides tools to successfully migrate to NX. A new shared licensing capability allows I-deas customers to operate both I-deas NX Series and NX from the same license. Customers can become familiar with the NX environment and see firsthand the benefits of transitioning to NX through new features, such as data and custom programming migration tools.

"We are looking forward to implementing I-deas 12 NX Series, as there are many enhancements that will collectively provide significant benefit to all our users," said Tom Guant, engineering services manager at IMMI in Indiana. "Furthermore, this is a key release for us as we begin to migrate toward full NX."
