NX CAD Demo - Topology Optimization and Generative Design
Use NX technology to easily generate multiple design options. (It's like having an extra employee dedicated to "trying out" different designs.) Then use Additive Manufacturing (3D printing) to generate the part.
NX CAD Demo - Search for components and parts based on shape
Studies show an inordinate amount of time can be spent by designers as they look for previous or similar parts. Let the software do the work for you as it searches for similarly-shaped parts.
NX CAD Demo - Validate you design before you manufacture it
NX has the ability for you to validate a part (or assembly) and its adherence to standards, collisions, and manufacturability.
NX CAD Demo - Virtual Reality
Virtually inspect and mark up full sized assemblies
NX CAD Demo - Photorealistic renders
This rendering was created from the actual product design. Notice the lighting and surface realism.

What do you like best about NX CAD?

Basic workflows can be easily managed by the UI, and the robust search command makes it simple to surface helpful commands. In general, tooltips are really helpful, and I feel like I can make good use of new commands when I approach them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NX CAD?

Like with any huge pieces of software, there are a few minor flaws in how things should work or non-critical errors that occasionally aren't fixed in updates. The programme is fast becoming so huge and inclusive that it is not always possible to deliver something that is 100% perfect, despite the fact that continued release feels like it is helping. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is NX CAD solving and how is that benefiting you?

NX Efficiency and accuracy are problems that CAD is continually working to address. Although I am aware that we don't always use these tools and workflows in my workplace, I can see the effort CAD is making to ensure that there will be ways to improve our workflows when the time comes with the fewest possible obstacles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Yolanda Dong of Siemens NX

Abhiram, thank you for your feedback on the minor flaws in NX CAD. We appreciate your understanding that with a comprehensive software like ours, achieving 100% perfection can be challenging. We're committed to addressing these issues in future updates.

The interface is easy to manage for basic workflows, and the robust search command makes it easy to surface useful commands. Generally, tooltips are very handy, and i feel like when approaching a new command, I can effectively get usage out of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NX CAD?

Like all large pieces of software, there are some minor annoyances on how things should function or non-show-stopping bugs that sometimes don't get addressed in updates. While continues release feels like its helping, the software is easily getting so large and encompassing that its not always possible to release something that is 100% Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is NX CAD solving and how is that benefiting you?

NX CAD is constantly trying to solve the issue of efficiency and accuracy. While i know that in my work environment, we dont always implement these tools and workflows, I do see the commitment that CAD is taking in making sure that when we are ready to enhance our workflows there will be ways that we can do that with minimal road bumps Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about NX CAD?

Having an updated and clean slate user interface makes it easier for our new users to adapt to NX from previous software options. The integration possibilities for NX with our current EDA tools is a major win, can't what to see how much more seemless Xpedition to NX integration will be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NX CAD?

We have to work with both metric and standard units; the problem we often face is model and assembly unit conversion to go back and forth. Customers require using NX command prompt for every individual part file. I would like to see a drop down tool from within the menu to convert the model dimensions. I'm doing this with a batch file right now, which definitely a downside compare to competitors products.

When using analysis measure the parametric measuring options are not as intuitive for defining specific ways to measure features. For example a center-to-center and center-to-edge we utilize all the time for tolerance analysis but are much hard to measure in NX than in CREO or Catia. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is NX CAD solving and how is that benefiting you?

We need NX to support our transition to single data source model base engineering platform. Our CAD and analysis used to be completely separate, allowing for gaps in teams' understanding, NX allows us to begin design natively in NX while utilizing Simcenter3D as we have been. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Yolanda Dong of Siemens NX

Connor, we appreciate your detailed feedback. It's great to hear that NX CAD is supporting your transition to a single data source model base engineering platform. We understand the importance of intuitive parametric measuring options and will work on improving this aspect to enhance your experience with NX CAD.
