Bringing product analytics and validation into the 3D design process

You rely on the latest company data to oversee progress, manage risks, resolve impacts, and ultimately formulate hundreds of decisions. We can help you ensure product quality, as well as reduce errors and rework.

Our products deliver visual product analytics and validation tools that enable you to quickly synthesize information, check designs for compliance to requirements, and make informed decisions.

Design Validation is made up of powerful features that allow you to build a custom solution. Read more about these features below.

Design & Requirements Validation

 

NX brings critical product, business and program information to 3D design and gives you automated design validation software tools that automatically and continuously monitor your designs for adherence to standards and requirements.

Design for Manufacturing

 

Design for manufacturing can help you significantly reduce engineering change orders (ECOs), manufacturing defects, costs, and delays. DFMPro for NX gives you high-definition 3D tools that automate and formalize the design review process for manufacturability, helping you identify design issues that are difficult, expensive or impossible to manufacture.

Visual Reporting

 

NX provides high-definition 3D (HD3D) visual reporting to help you instantly gather product information and visualize its impact in the context of the 3D design. Visual reporting of product analytics in NX helps you make unambiguous assessments, interpret data quickly and accurately, and synthesize data for better decision-making.

Animations in Designs

 

If you make products that have moving parts, chances are you want to see them in action and need to know kinematic properties such as displacements, velocities, accelerations, and even collisions. NX software offers a fast and easy motion analysis application for studying the kinematic behavior of designs. This easy-to-use motion application helps engineers create kinematic studies early in the design process, reducing the time it takes to create an accurate digital mockup so users can spend more time designing.

Design Simulation for Performance Validation

 

Simulation is no longer just a performance validation tool, but simulation is becoming an organic part of the development process throughout concept and design. Simulation is helping designers create better, more robust designs earlier in the development process, while also speeding the overall time it takes to release a design – meaning faster time to market.

With design-integrated motion, structural, and thermal simulation tools in NX, you can quickly compare design alternatives and optimize performance characteristics from the earliest stages of the design process.

Molded Part Validation & Injection Molding Simulation

 

NX offers a range of tools that help you assess the moldability of plastic parts. These validation and mold flow analysis tools are intended for use by designers in the early stages of product development, and are fully integrated with NX design functions.
