Siemens delivers industry’s first Artificial Intelligence-powered CAD sketching technology
"The
ability to make intelligent changes to 2D entities that one
imports into the new sketcher is astounding,” said Steve Samuels, CEO of Design Visionaries Inc.
Analysis
has shown that in an average day or workflow, around 10% of a typical user’s
day is spent sketching. In addition, within current design environments most concept
sketching is happening outside of the CAD software due to the level of rules
and relationships that must be decided on and built into the sketch by the user
up front. Often designers in concept design stage do not necessarily know what
the final product may be, which requires a sketching environment that is
flexible and can evolve with the design. NX offers the flexibility of 2D paper
concept design within the 3D CAD environment, as the first in the industry to eliminate upfront
constraints on the design. Instead of defining and being limited by constraints
such as size or relationships, NX can recognize tangents and other design relationships
to adjust on the fly.
“Sketching is at the heart of CAD and is
critical to capturing the intent of the digital twin,” said Bob Haubrock, Senior Vice President, Product Engineering Software at Siemens
Digital Industries Software. “Even though this is an essential part of the
process, sketching hasn’t changed much in the last 40 years. Using technology
and innovations from multiple past acquisitions, Siemens is able to take a
fresh look at this crucial design step and modernize it in a way that will help
our customers achieve significant gains in productivity and innovation.”
Siemens Digital Industries Software is driving transformation to enable a digital enterprise where engineering, manufacturing and electronics design meet tomorrow. The Xcelerator portfolio helps companies of all
