193 Solid Edge Testimonials

“Design tasks that took six hours on a drawing board dropped to about four hours using 2D computer-aided design (CAD), and then to 15 minutes with 3D Solid Edge."

“This was not an overwhelming amount so in order to make this project happen and then transport it to the Netherlands with the entire crew, we needed additional funding. What we managed to collect was not enough. The price of photovoltaic panels was so steep that the prototype of the boat, which we built in a few months, sailed with mock panels made of plywood.”

"Thanks to the joint work with Pixel to optimize the development of Solid Edge, we have managed to increase the productivity and quality of our products, with substantial savings in both time and money."

“The main disruption was that we lost a week when we sent everyone to training. (Training was conducted by the reseller, CAM Logic.) But that actually paid off because by the end of that week most people were back to their previous level of productivity. And not long after, they surpassed that level.”

“One thing that was really noticeable about Solid Edge was that, compared to SolidWorks, it is much easier to use. You need fewer commands and keystrokes to create parts and assemblies.” Drafting was another area in which Solid Edge excelled. “A test assembly took an entire day to produce in SolidWorks.”

"We felt that the cost reduction in design we could achieve using Solid Edge, plus the ability to provide on-time product delivery to our clients, would enable us to enhance our reputation and get new customers. Other factors impacting selection included the depth and breadth of technology offered by Siemens Digital Industries Software and the support we saw from Siemens Digital Industries Software’s distributor/partner to understand and address our issues. With such complete 2D/3D functionality, we knew that Solid Edge would deliver unique capabilities to meet our needs."

"NX CAD/CAM multi-axis includes a postprocessor library and post builder environment to help customize postprocessors for our CNC machines."

“Thanks to the implementation of NX CAM multiaxis solutions and advanced services from Vietbay, we have been able to rapidly process complex mold components and significantly increased our purchase orders. Customer satisfaction has noticeably improved, which will further enhance Cosmos’ competitiveness and market share. NX CAM enables many pathways to automate NC programming and optimize toolpaths. It is also safer for our machining centers with G-code simulation that validates the programs using machines’ digital twins.”

"We only have to create the model once using Solid Edge; we then transfer it to CAM Express to adjust and modify the dimensions. It is very easy to use. No other CAM software product we’ve ever used is so user-friendly."

"That is why we continue to build our models sequentially. We use the synchronous technology of Solid Edge with its speedy options for direct processing above all for the modification of third- party data."

"The speed with which we can now develop comes from our ability to change and re-use data, and Solid Edge was the catalyst for this. Everything comes from the drawings. If we need to trace a part number from a sales invoice or Bill of Materials, we can do so in an instant. Before, this process could take days."

"Solid Edge is in every way competitive with our old system in terms of functionality. However, in Siemens Digital Industries Software, we have found a vendor that understands the needs of mid-size mechanical engineering companies and assures the sustainability of its software.”

"There’s nothing like synchronous technology. I think CAD will be changed forever with the introduction of synchronous technology."

"Using synchronous technology allows us to explore considerably more design ideas quickly, without having to go through and individually update each part."

"We started with one license of Solid Edge, and now we have 14 licenses. We also acquired NX and NX Nastran solutions, and with them we have managed to reduce the cycle times in engineering development by 60 percent."
