The advanced capabilities for mold and die machining, production machining and complex parts machining allow you to reduce machining cycles by up to 60 percent and drastically simplify 5-axis programming of complex features. With the additive manufacturing capabilities in NX 12, engineers can quickly set up build trays, automatically nest parts, design support structures, and create machine-specific output to drive industrial printers, all within the NX environment. Using the new integrated capabilities of Siemens PLM Software\u2019s solutions, tooling manufacturers can now gain a unique advantage by automatically and accurately determining tooling production costs.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: inherit\">Video transcript:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>NX for Manufacturing \u2013 Transform your manufacturing with a digital machine shop<\/p>\n<p>NX CAM: 1) Machine 60% faster using high-speed Adaptive Milling; 2) Easily program complex 5-axis roughing and finishing with Tube Milling.<\/p>\n<p>Robotic Machining: Program robots for pick-and-place and machining operation using NX CAM.<\/p>\n<p>NX Machining Line Planner: Plan and optimize high-volume flexible machining lines using NX<\/p>\n<p>Additive Manufacturing: 1) Prepare 3D printing jobs for industrial powder bed fusion printers; 2) Rapidly build functional parts using HP Multi Jet Fusion 3D printers.<\/p>\n<p>NX Tooling Design: Automate tool costing to improve your profitability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Watch our new NX 12 for manufacturing overview video! <\/p>\n<p> NX 12 for Manufacturing introduces the next generation of software tools for CNC machining, additive manufacturing, and robotics to en&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13689,"featured_media":4255,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spanish_translation":"","french_translation":"","german_translation":"","italian_translation":"","polish_translation":"","japanese_translation":"","chinese_translation":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[5,24,27,169,200,209],"industry":[],"product":[],"coauthors":[4725],"class_list":["post-4356","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-additive-manufacturing","tag-cmm-inspection-programming","tag-complex-parts-machining","tag-computer-aided-manufacturing-cam","tag-mold-die","tag-tool-fixture-design"],"featured_image_url":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2019\/09\/NX12-for-Manufacturing2_2.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/nx-manufacturing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4356","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/nx-manufacturing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/nx-manufacturing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/nx-manufacturing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13689"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/nx-manufacturing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4356"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/nx-manufacturing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4356\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9790,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/nx-manufacturing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4356\/revisions\/9790"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/nx-manufacturing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4255"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/nx-manufacturing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4356"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/nx-manufacturing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4356"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/nx-manufacturing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4356"},{"taxonomy":"industry","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/nx-manufacturing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/industry?post=4356"},{"taxonomy":"product","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/nx-manufacturing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product?post=4356"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/nx-manufacturing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=4356"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
