Designcenter X NX Essentials accelerates design | Browser-based online CAD

Designcenter X NX Essentials help you simplify the design process—reducing development cycles and delivering faster results—all while keeping costs under control. Let’s dive into the features that are enabling more agile, efficient design workflows.

Accelerate design with AI-based modeling and automated drawings

Streamline 3D computer-aided design (CAD) modeling for quoting, manufacturing and fixture design with AI-predictive direct modeling and automated 2D drawing creation in the product. Artificial Intelligence (AI)-predictive modeling recognizes design intent on the fly, perfect for working with imported CAD data, or to rapidly create new concept designs and easily respond to change requests. Tooling capabilities in the platform simplify toolpath creation, allowing you to generate optimized paths for computer numerical control (CNC) and other machines with ease, minimizing setup time and production complexity.

Designcenter X NX Essentials CAD capabilities

It provides CAD capabilities and tools for both designers and sales engineers to quickly create designs, modify existing models or make changes to proposals. Open and modify models from other CAD systems including Designcenter Solid Edge, SolidWorks, Inventor and Creo, or design your own parts and assembly models using shape and part libraries. Leveraging native Designcenter NX data, the software boasts seamless data interoperability and ensures changes can be made on site and shared seamlessly with other instances of Designcenter NX back at the primary workstation.

With industry leading Siemens sheet metal technology, create accurate 3D models of sheet metal parts and assemblies with automated flat patterns and export drawing exchange format (DXF) profiles for manufacture. 

Real-time collaboration in CAD

Transform feedback into action with real-time collaboration in the product. Create, edit, visualize and share designs quickly in the app, enabling real-time feedback and adjustments for a more agile and efficient design process. With seamless data interoperability and native NX data support, changes can be shared effortlessly across workstations, while augmented reality (AR) allows users to experience designs in real-world environments, enhancing collaboration and alignment.
