NX Design

NX NastranWith NX, you experience a remarkable level of productivity. NX offers flexibility and ease-of-use, the ability to reuse data and knowledge, and the ability to easily create templates.

A customizable task- and role-based UI make your design process more accessible to a large number of users.

A recent independent study shows, quite simply, that NX upon first impression is easier to use, is more efficient and easier to learn. This all results in making NX users more productive.

We can help you capture your knowledge, automate it and reuse it - making you even more productive as it flows throughout your enterprise.

Protect your investment in existing data by finding features in unintelligent ‘dumb’ solids.

Efficiently exchange design data among disparate software solutions.

Easily customize NX to include a set of features common to your particular design practices.

Turn any part, regardless of its complexity, into a reusable design template. Input can be slide bars, levers, and other simple on-screen interactions, but limits may be placed to ensure specific design constraints. Once the required inputs have been identified, they can be validated as well.

Simply put, NX allows you to be More Productive, More Innovative, and Faster to Market.

Leading-edge performance for design

A comprehensive mechanical design solution, NX lets you choose the tools and methodologies that best suit your design challenge, and work directly with design data from other CAD systems. A unique assembly design and mockup environment, process-specific design aids, drafting and 3D annotation help you work significantly faster than you would with general-purpose CAD tools.

Knowledge-enabled design

NX automates and simplifies design by leveraging the product and process knowledge that companies gain from experience and from industry best practices. It includes tools that designers can use to capture knowledge to automated repetitive tasks. The result is reduced cost and cycle time and improved quality.

Full-cycle productivity

With NX, efficiency and cost savings extend beyond the design process to all phases of product development. NX dynamically integrates CAD with planning, simulation, tooling, manufacturing and other processes to help ensure that design decisions can be made more quickly, with detailed knowledge of product performance and manufacturability issues.
