Mechanical Design
Next generation design – today.
New capabilities in convergent modeling allow engineers to incorporate mesh models into their design workflow, creating real designs, not just inspirational shapes. New manufacturing constraints support milling, casting or molding of generative designs, in addition to 3D printing, all optimized to weight and strength requirements. New design for cost capabilities to keep product development on track and within budget.
Electrical Design
The best electrical design tools join the Solid Edge family.
Solid Edge Wiring Design delivers wiring design and simulation tools for the rapid creation and verification of electrical systems. Solid Edge Harness Design allows rapid and intuitive harness and formboard design with automated part selection, design verification, and manufacturing report generation. Solid Edge PCB Design provides schematic capture and PCB layout, including sketch routing, hierarchical 2D/3D planning and placement and ECAD-MCAD collaboration. And Solid Edge Electrical Routing efficiently creates, routes, and organizes wires, cables, and bundles.
Manufacturing
Bring your ideas to life, in full color.
Introducing Solid Edge CAM Pro – a comprehensive, highly flexible system that uses the latest machining technology to efficiently program your CNC machine tools, from simple NC programming to high-speed and multi-axis machining. Associative toolpaths for parts and assemblies speed design changes and updates. In addition to traditional manufacturing processes, Solid Edge supports automated print preparation and color printing for additive manufacturing directly to your printer or a 3D printing services so you can make your ideas a reality.
Simulation
Complex design validation just got easier.
Solid Edge offers enhanced structural and thermal simulation, including transient heat transfer. Time-based history analysis enables simulation of thermal and cooling performance. Free surface flow simulation, lighting and radiation capabilities allow digital “what if” analysis.
Technical Publications
Clear communication. Clearly better.
Quickly create and publish detailed illustrations of your product designs, and publish interactive digital documents for manufacturing, installation, and maintenance work instruction packages. Associative updates keep documents in sync when product designs change.
Data Management
Take control of your data, including your requirements.
New Solid Edge Requirements Management—manage product design requirements and meet compliance standards through complete traceability. Easy to setup, easy to administer.
Solid Edge Portal
Make your mark with free cloud-based collaboration.
The Solid Edge Portal offers online CAD management, viewing, and collaboration—for free. With browser-based access for viewing and markup of CAD files, on any device, you can work in real time, from anywhere. Experience secure, controlled sharing of project documents and CAD files.
