NX CAD and CAE Community Wrap Up
Exciting things have been going on in the NX CAD and CAE communities. Here are the highlights you may have missed from the past few weeks in the NX Design and Simulation forums. This week’s wrap up from the Siemens PLM NX communities contains useful tips on software features in quick video format, a case study on a leading automotive company from China, some teasers and highlights from PLM World, and more!
Design
NX Quick Tips: Assembly Sequencing — You can simulate assembly and disassembly of components in a variety of ways and even create a video from the sequence using the NX Assembly Sequencing commands. Check it out in this NX Quick Tips video.
NX Case Study: Beiqi Foton Motor — Foton, an automotive industry leader in China, saved time and improved the design process for thier engineers with NX software. Read about in this case study.
NX Quick Tips: Extraction Path — Removing a selected component from an assembly collision-free can be a complicated process. Let NX do the work for you with the NX Extraction Path command as John Baker explains in this NX Quick Tips video.
Simulation
NX CAE Roadmap- almost — Check out these teasers of what to expect in NX 10 along with the future of NX CAE from the NX CAE Roadmap at PLM World.
Nastran on the Cloud and other news at PLM World — Here’s a brief highlight of NX related topics covered at PLM World. Be sure to check out Mark’s post (linked to in the article) to read about graffiti artist Erik Wahl’s kickoff to the weeklong event.
Achieve simulation-driven design faster with integrated 1D and 3D simulation — Integrating 1D and 3D simulation allows you to evaluate and validate new concepts faster than ever before. This topic has specific applications in the automotive industry.
Look for these posts every couple of weeks to catch up on the latest topics and news from the NX Design and Simulation communities.
Better yet, be the first to know what’s new in the worlds of NX Design and Simulation when you register as a member of the Community. You can also check out the forums for users tips and solutions to problems real people have. It’s free to join and open to everyone, so don’t miss out!
