Solid Edge 2D/3D CAD System
The most complete feature-based 2D/3D CAD system available
Solid Edge® software with Synchronous Technology is the most complete feature-based 2D/3D CAD system available to the market today that combines the speed and flexibility of direct modelling with precise control of dimension-driven design, to provide the fastest, most flexible design experience possible. With superior part and assembly modelling, drafting, transparent data management, and built-in finite element analysis, Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology is a core component of the Velocity Series™ portfolio that eases the growing complexity of product design.
Synchronous Technology
This breakthrough combines the speed and flexibility of explicit modelling with the precise control of parameterized design. Models can be developed faster because designs no longer require preplanning. Changes are more flexible since users can apply 3D driving dimensions to completed models, and Live Rules maintains model integrity throughout design iterations. During any change, models are not regenerated so performance is nearly instant. The same edit tools can be used on imported data so changes to outsourced data can be made on the spot.
Why Solid Edge?
- Unique Modelling Paradigm: Synchronous Technology combines the speed and flexibility of direct modelling with precise control of dimension driven design, to provide the fastest, most flexible design experience possible.
- Superior transition from 2D to 3D: Solid Edge is the only 2D/3D design system offering a solution for creating and maintaining 2D data as well as utilising it in your 3D design process in a single product.
- Complete product modelling toolset: Built on industry standards, Parasolid and D-Cubed, the most complete and powerful surface and solid modelling solution in its class.
- Best sheet metal modelling in any class: A dedicated environment for accelerating the design of sheet metal parts through automatic flat pattern generation and documentation.
- Optimal performance and management of massive assemblies: Solid Edge has clear leadership in massive assembly design making it practical to work with models well in excess of 100,000 parts.
- Production-proven 2D drafting: Solid Edge leads the market in automatic drawing creation supporting all drawing view types, dimensions, annotations and complete 2D drawing tools.
- Scalable design and failure analysis: The simulation tools in Solid Edge range from Femap Express to Femap and can take full advantage of simplified and mid surface models.
- Collaboration throughout the supply chain: Siemens offers a complete suite of view and markup tools for collaborating with internals, customers and supplies.
- Scalable design and design management solutions: Choose from a range of design and data management tools that suite your business needs.
- The Velocity Series: The Velocity Series is a comprehensive family of modular, yet integrated solutions addressing the product lifecycle management (PLM) needs of the mid-market. Consisting of a preconfigured family of digital product design, analysis, NC programming and data management software offerings, Velocity Series leverages the industry’s best practices to provide significant breakthroughs in ease-of-use and deployment.
