"Having to master the design tree is the hardest part of going to 3D CAD, and with synchronous technology, the tree is gone."
"For me, Solid Edge is a fast, efficient and easy-to-use tool; it is very comprehensive and has enabled us to reduce design time, virtually ending the errors we had when assembling pieces. It also allows us to visualize all of the pieces before producing them. This enables greater productivity across the company by reducing costs and allowing us to do more projects on a monthly basis."
“For an integrated rocker arm project we recently completed using NX, the draft was three-dimensional and so complex that I can’t imagine it would have been possible to handle using other software.”
“Our product is like a big household appliance, characterized by high levels of standardization and a strong focus on engineering.”
“The integrated approach of NX CAD/CAM has played a key role in our ability to manufacture parts to higher standards. Using NX CAM, our engineers were able to successfully generate the programs required for machining the part that was then checked on our Zeiss CMM. The critical, circular angular faces were found to have an accuracy that exceeds customer requirements.”
"Before selecting NX, we were facing numerous problems specifically related to design flexibility. We decided to invest in high-end software and chose NX for a variety of reasons, especially its sophisticated design capabilities and proven strengths in significantly reducing design time.”
“There has been widespread acceptance of the decision to use software from Siemens.”
“With NX and Teamcenter, performance has increased multifold.”
“The wholly integrated Siemens platform made it easy to adopt a comprehensive PLM approach and achieve real and absolute project data sharing.”
“If you are working with constantly changing design specifications, it is very quick and easy to modify dimensions and change parameters with NX without having to re-create your finite element model. This saves a lot of time and drudgery and gives you confidence that your model is updated to the correct design definition.”
“I was able to teach myself how to use it just by using the documentation and looking at the examples. With Femap, you can pick it up as you work with the program.”
"We find Femap to be the best value product – the most capable for the cost. And our customers’ evaluations reveal that they consistently agree. It’s clear the developers of NX Nastran are truly interested in enhancing the product."
“We like the free body tool because we can create section cuts through the vehicle at different stations and figure out the load paths to determine what types of loads are in the different areas very quickly.”
“Our engineering workstations are Windows based, so it’s easy to get information out of the Femap models into other tools such as Excel, and to pull out pictures.”
“NX is highly suitable for the needs of small companies and individual designers, not only for big organizations.”
