Designcenter NX design solutions fact sheet

This eight-page fact sheet describes the prepackaged Designcenter NX Design solutions (called NX Design in the document), which deliver the mechanical CAD capabilities of Designcenter NX in three tiers: NX Design Standard, Advanced and Premium. It explains what each tier adds, how the packages are licensed on premises (floating or node-locked), and how add-on modules can be added through token or perpetual licences.

What the document covers

• A tier-by-tier comparison table covering modelling, process-specific tools, industrial design, validation and data exchange
• Core modelling: feature-based solid modelling, synchronous technology for direct editing, Core Convergent Modeling of facet geometry, assemblies and drafting to ANSI, ISO, JIS, DIN, GB and ESKD standards
• Process tools: sheet metal design with flat patterns, 3D PMI with GD&T, flexible PCB design and basic routing for pipe, tube and cable runs
• Industrial design: photorealistic rendering, Class-A freeform shape tools with reverse engineering of scans, and advanced surface analysis
• Validation: Check-Mate rules, HD3D Visual Reporting, optimisation and sensitivity studies, and molded part validation in Premium
• Teamcenter integration and translators for IGES, STEP, DXF/DWG, STL and 3MF

Who it is for

Aimed at mechanical design engineers and CAD managers comparing NX packages, and at product development teams in industries that need assemblies, sheet metal, molded parts or styled surfaces.
