NX Open: Why Exactly Right Is Better Than Very Good




If you're in search of an all-encompassing CAE, CAD and CAM software that has impressive abilities, Siemens' NX is likely to be at the top of the list. It's a great tool - and we really mean many. But, like many out-of-the box (OOB) software isn't able to satisfy your particular requirements and workflows. This is the point where NX Open personalization and automatisation comes into.

NX Open Programming Interfaces let you increase the power of the NX software by automating dialogs and algorithms that blend the traditional NX software into an custom solution that is suited to your particular needs and workflows precisely.

Three different ways NX Open customization and automation simplifies workflows to ensure quality results.

  1. Custom-designed dialogs help users navigate through clearly defined processes

  2. Automation utilizes best practices from within the company and procedures

  3. Customized workflows complement and extend the existing NX tool set

Implementing workflow automation for dozens of designers and engineers requires the right planning and implementation. By preserving best practices from within the company with robust automation components and tools, you can be sure that your customized solutions will preserve the knowledge of the lessons learned in the present and into the future.

With well-documented easily extensible and maintainable NX modifications and Siemens Digital Industries Software's guarantee regarding accessibility of the publicly available NX Open interfaces, your investment in automation will produce results for an extended period of time.

Four steps to overcome business obstacles using NX Open

  1. Integration of design, analysis and quality-control methods into NX

  2. Make use of NX Dialog Designer along with NX Tools for Open Programming

  3. Extend the standard NX toolset with automated workflows and procedures

  4. Learn from an expert's viewpoint regarding the evaluation and design of your business

In combining everything into an integrated system, making the best utilization of the tools available and streamlining and adjusting your workflow under the direction by experts, you'll be in a good position to tackle the most pressing business issues head-on quickly and with minimal time and margins of quality.

Five reasons to leverage NX Open customization and automation to increase capacity and compete force

  1. Perform repetitive workflows 5 or 20 times more quickly using normal process improvements and automation

  2. Make use of the expertise and know-how of your top inside experts

  3. Your engineering company should be empowered to address designs with a plan of action

  4. Improve the level of understanding of your programming team

  5. Allow your most imaginative minds to think about the possibilities of process improvement and innovative designs.

Workflows that rely on business-specific expertise and knowledge are usually repetitive and lengthy. Through automatizing and speeding up processes it is possible to meet the goals of quality and competitiveness by leveraging your inside-company knowledge.
