Capture, refine, and design concepts faster with NX CAD.
NX Design (NX CAD) gives engineers the ability to enhance product ideation, development, and manufacturing processes while also working seamlessly with data from other CAD systems. With its built-in synchronous technology, geometry is easily created and edited with unparalleled push and pull editing – even in the most complex models. It provides a variety of tools for specialized design tasks (including sheet metal design, weld design, electrical, and mechanical design) and templates that help accelerate design and standardize engineering processes.
Experience no limitation on CAD design with tools and technology that maximizes speed, productivity and efficiency while dramatically reducing up to 30 in percent design time, development time, and costs.

Model Based Definition
With its seamless integration of wireframe, surface, solid and facet modeling tools and techniques, NX CAD gives users the ability to go from feature to feature without having to switch applications or transfer data. It’s flexible modeling tools include:
Surface/Solid Modeling
Best-in-class surfacing tools integrated within a single design environment
Subdivision Modeling
Intuitive push-pull methods of defining shapes
Convergent Modeling
Enables facets and b-rep modeling using a single part
Synchronous Modeling
Simple to use direct editing tools – regardless of source and feature history
NX CAD x Design Versatility
“You can work in a more innovative way, combining the capabilities of Alias, SolidWorks, and Space Claim in a single tool.”
NX CAD x Product Stability
“Not a single corruption through hundreds of major design changes.”
NX CAD x Synchronous Technology
“For editing imported or old models and for CAE pre-processing.”
“Electric cars make sense,” states Lewis Horne, CEO at Uniti Sweden. “And the focus was making electric cars make more sense [to consumers].” Concerned with mobility issues, the startup’s goal was to limit pollution and congestion issues in populated cities. Using a process based on “fail-fast” iterations and collective data files (including sketches, 3D printed models, and CAD meshes), they used typical development tools in ways unique to their needs.
Jell, a leader in additive manufacturing, is a top player in consumer products. Since their start, the company’s 3D printed products have been an essential for appliance companies – from coffee machines to vacuum cleaners. Their secret to their growth and success? NX CAD. “We’ve been using Siemens NX for many years,” explains Sebastian Hochwarter (Development & Design at Jell). “The advantage of the program is that all the features are in one package – you don’t need to export and import files. It makes it a great time saver.”
Specializing in metal laser melting, robotics, injection molding and moldmaking, Toolcraft expanded and transitioned from prototyping to producing usable parts. With growth came the reality of needing to produce tools faster than conventional manufacturing without quality issues. The company turned to NX CAD’s additive manufacturing functionality to design optimization, build preparation, and print management.
