Siemens PLM NX 12.0.0

Siemens PLM Software has released the latest version of its PLM NX software, is a major release with significant new functionality in all areas of the product. NX 12 delivers the next generation design solution that enables your company to realize the value of the digital twin throughout the product development process. The challenges all of us face in today’s market—from increasingly complex products reliant on integrated electronics to ever-decreasing lead times—can only be met with truly open, integrated software that unites the best tools in a single platform. NX 12 provides that solution with the only scalable multidisciplinary platform available in the market today, uniting electrical, mechanical and control systems through close integration with Mentor Graphics Capital Harness and Xpedition. NX 12 removes the barriers to innovation at every step of the process, from development to manufacturing, to help companies rise above the challenges of today’s rapidly shortening product lifecycle.

With this release, we continue to provide innovative ways to deliver solutions that meet the next generation of your product design, development, and manufacturing challenges. NX 12 is robust and powerful, and it delivers advanced technologies for product design, development, and manufacturing in a single, multidisciplinary platform. It preserves best-in-class customer deployment readiness, and builds on the productivity and stability achievements of the previous release. We've summarized the key improvements below:

- Design
NX 12 removes barriers to innovation and empowers engineers to quickly achieve optimal design solutions by utilizing their full creative potential. NX 12 includes hundreds of end-user enhancements that will increase your productivity. One example is the simultaneous display of multiple windows, which greatly improves concurrent working methods. Building on major enhancements introduced in NX 11, such as Convergent Modeling, NX 12 delivers refined tools that support the generative design workflow by allowing direct manipulation of scanned or optimized facet geometry. In addition, our close integration with Mentor Graphics Capital facilitates the intelligent integration of electronic and electrical design with mechanical design. To support the increasing adoption of additive manufacturing, this release combines advanced tools with traditional modeling methods for designing lightweight parts, reinforcing the new capabilities with custom design validation checkers that ensure manufacturability. Together, these ehancements and functionality bolster NX's standing as the design tool of choice.
- Simulation
Simcenter 3D is a unified, scalable, open, and extensible environment for 3D simulation that is based on the NX platform. This release of Simcenter 3D revolutionizes how simulation engineers can help drive design direction and predict product performance. It provides new solutions, such as topology optimization powered by NX Nastran, and supports seamless integration with NX Convergent Modeling—allowing designers and advanced analysts to quickly generate and explore new design concepts. This release expands and integrates an impressive array of new technologies that build on LMS technologies for acoustics, structural, and motion analyses, and it broadens support for nonlinear solutions to include multi-step and dynamic nonlinear solutions. With new capabilities in motion, thermal, flow, and pre/post, as well as enhancements in discipline- and industry-specific modeling and post-processing, Simcenter 3D empowers engineers to be more productive while enabling more realistic and efficient CAE workflows than ever before.
- Manufacturing
NX CAM 12 brings powerful technologies that enable a new level of production efficiency on the shop floor. Adaptive milling, a new high-speed roughing method, significantly reduces machining time while extending cutting tool life. Using the new 5-axis tube milling, NC programmers rely on built-in expertise to efficiently rough and finish narrow hollow features, including ports on engine blocks and shrouded blisks. For high-volume production of complicated parts with many features, the new NX Machining Line Planner, combined with integrated NX CAM, enables distribution, balancing, programming, and simulation of operations over multiple setups and machines. This release also brings new and robust additive manufacturing capabilities to drive a wide range of 3D printer types, including HP Multi Jet Fusion printers. Along with functionality to more easily create complex support geometries, and capabilities for automated 3D nesting, NX truly facilitates the application of additive manufacturing for industrial production.
