Increasing global competition is reducing time-to-market, driving the need to arrive at the best design early and ensure quality from the beginning. Designs must get lighter to meet future requirements, but strength and robustness must be maintained.
A convergence of technologies is opening up new possibilities in design. Only NX has true generative engineering with a comprehensive toolset. Those tools include Convergent Modeling, which allows you to work with optimized geometry (facet data) like any other data. Only NX offers topology optimization at the designer level, with no CAE expertise required.
The electrical and electronic content in cars is increasing exponentially. This creates new packaging challenges from things like batteries, high-voltage wiring, sensors, and infotainment systems. Disjointed mechanical and electrical design systems create issues with lost information, limited traceability, and visibility of the impact of changes.
NX delivers a holistic design approach that integrates the mechanical, electrical, and electronic disciplines and enables you to respond to changing demands quickly and easily, increasing confidence in product performance. A fully integrated 3D electrical harness routing application allows users to design and route harnesses in complex assemblies. With deep integration between NX & Capital, data can be shared in a live “connected” mode, which aids visualization. Design changes can be captured and reconciled. Features include live cross-probing between logical and harness and harness space reservation.
NX and Simcenter 3D combine to form an integrated modeling and simulation platform for the analysis of multi-domain systems. NX can simulate manufacturing and assembly processes to predict the amount and causes of variation. NX also addresses the challenges faced by mold, tool, and die designers with a fully integrated solution. Finally, NX offers a robust set of Design for Manufacturing (DfM) tools.
