NX from UGS is a next-generation digital product development system that enables companies to transform the entire product lifecycle. Encompassing the industry’s broadest suite of integrated applications, NX addresses the full range of development processes in product design, engineering and manufacturing.
NX is ideally suited to today’s manufacturing business challenges – balancing cost reduction and quality improvement with increased revenue and profitability through innovation. From initial concept through manufacturing planning, NX delivers a unified production-proven applications and process automation tools, integrated into a digital management and collaboration backbone.
Learn how NX uniquely supports Business Process Initiatives for transforming product development.
NX solutions include:
- Styling and industrial design:
NX product development solutions foster innovation with leading-edge tools for styling and industrial design that are fully integrated with product engineering.
- Design:
NX delivers the world’s most powerful and extensive applications for product design, with the performance and flexibility manufacturers need to design products of virtually any complexity.
- Simulation, validation, and optimization:
NX enables manufacturers to digitally simulate, validate and optimize products and their development processes. By simulating performance digitally and earlier in the development cycle, manufacturers can improve product quality while reducing or eliminating physical prototypes and costly, time consuming design/build/change cycles.
- Tooling:
NX tooling applications extend design productivity and efficiency into manufacturing, with solutions that are dynamically linked with product models to ensure accuracy and timely development of production tooling, workholding jigs and fixtures, and complex molds and dies.
- Machining:
NX provides process-oriented machining solutions that streamline machining while optimizing speed and efficiency. With a "do anything" range of capabilities, NX machining solutions include advanced numerical control programming, toolpath and machine simulation, postporcessing, shop documentation, and process planning.
- Managed development environment:
Managed development environment: With a managed development environment, the design, engineering, and manufacturing tools in NX comprise a product development solution that is greater than the sum of its parts. All product development applications are interconnected by a robust managed environment that enables transformation of product lifecycle processes.
