Solid Edge with synchronous technology permits a new level of design fine-tuning

With design elements such as spoonshaped bows and gently sloped transoms, Back Cove Yachts reflect their Maine lobster boat heritage. But unlike their predecessors, these modern yachts feature ample room in the cockpit as well as cabin amenities such as refrigerators and freezers, microwave ovens, stainless steel sinks, plenty of storage and comfortable sleeping accommodations. Large windows provide ample visibility and light.

Performance is up-to-date as well, thanks to modern, deep-vee hulls and six-cylinder diesel engines.


Leveraging synchronous technology

NP Innovation is a Swedish company dedicated to developing water treatment solutions for aquaculture, industrial and municipal applications. Building on 30 years of experience, NP Innovation is on a mission to change the industry with innovative design and manufacturing, as well as reduced costs for investments, operations and maintenance.

NP Innovation chose Solid Edge for computer-aided design (CAD) from product lifecycle management specialist Siemens PLM Software.

“Innovation is the core of what we do,” says Gustav Kågesson, design manager for NP Innovation. “Our ideas are realized using Solid Edge, which helps our designers to work quickly and efficiently. We are particularly satisfied with the functions of synchronous modeling for easy editing without the need to edit sketches every time.”

Siemens PLM Solid Edge Overview Applied CAxSolid Edge is a complete hybrid 2D/3D CAD system that uses synchronous technology for accelerated design, faster revisions and better imported re-use to help companies design better.

Solid Edge leverages synchronous technology, enabling your company to deliver breakthrough designs. Designers can accelerate model creation without engaging in design preplanning. They also are able to perform faster ECO edits by eliminating model regeneration, while increasing the re-use of imported 2D or 3D data. This unique technology helps you get products to market faster, service customer needs better and reduce engineering design costs.

With Solid Edge you can build entire 3D digital prototypes and optimize your designs before production. You can design assemblies with machined, cast or stylized components and leverage process-specific applications to simplify frame, piping, tube, wiring, and mold tooling design.
