NX X Manufacturing solutions fact sheet

A seven-page fact sheet on NX X Manufacturing, the software-as-a-service (SaaS) packaging of Designcenter NX CAM (called NX CAM in the document) for NC programming. It explains that the cloud packages use the same NX architecture and data model as the on-premises NX Manufacturing products, are licensed per named user, include base-level data management and can be extended with tokens.

What the document covers

• The package line-up, Team Connect, Essentials, Standard, Advanced and Premium, with a comparison table of capabilities
• Standard tier: 2.5-axis milling, turning, hole making and feature-based machining for prismatic parts
• Advanced tier: 3-axis milling for freeform parts, rest milling, smooth offset cutting and advanced freeform modelling
• Premium tier: rotary and 5-axis milling, machine tool simulation driven by G-code and a synchronisation manager for multi-channel machines
• Shared tools: modelling for manufacturing with synchronous technology, master model associativity, toolpath animation and collision checking, CAM templates and feed rate tables
• Postprocessing with Post Configurator and the browser-based Post Hub library, plus HTML shop documentation and Teamcenter integration

Who it is for

Written for NC programmers, CAM engineers and machine shop managers in part manufacturing who are weighing cloud-delivered CAM and want to see which package matches their machining work.
