NX for Design, Manufacturing and Simulation
NX
Siemens NX software is an integrated product design, engineering and manufacturing solution that helps you deliver better products faster and more efficiently. The industries most integrated, flexible and efficient software offers synchronous technology for flexible design in an open environment, integrates multi-discipline simulation, a full range of advanced part manufacturing applications, and a tight integration with Teamcenter, the world’s leading Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) platform.
Integrated CAD/CAM/CAE enables
SMARTER decisions for BETTER products
- Advanced solutions for conceptual design, 3D modeling and documentation
- Multi-discipline simulation for structural, motion, thermal, flow and multi-physics applications
- Complete part manufacturing solutions for tooling, machining and quality inspection
NX in action
Efficient processes from product development to manufacturing
With their Sinumerik-controlled FZ12 MT manufacturing center, Chiron-Werke GmbH & Co. KG show that digital concepts prove their value in practice. They use Siemens NX CAD/CAM as a programming and simulation solution, which works with a virtual NC kernel.
NX Software for Design & Simulation
The NISSAN ZEOD RC is the first hybrid vehicle to drive 300 km/h and complete a full lap of the circuit on pure electric power at the 24 hours of Le Mans race. The car was built by automotive engineering company RML, using NX Software from Siemens’ PLM portfolio to design, simulate and build the car virtually.
NX for Design
NX for Design is an integrated product design solution that streamlines and accelerates the product development process for engineers who need to deliver innovative products in a collaborative environment. Unlike CAD-only solutions and closed enterprise solutions, NX for Design offers the highest level of integration between development disciplines in an open, collaborative environment.
