Overall Satisfaction with NX CAD

Our company is using Siemens NX CAD for designing processes, Template creation, or generating Drawings. Also it is used in our Automation line project for our new Engineering to Order Process. Also it is integrated into our Product lifecycle management process. Therefore we are using the Programming Interfaces NXOpen with Java.
  • Complex Assemblies
  • NXOpen API
  • Journal function
  • Less free tutorials in the Internet for NXOpen
  • Expression handling is hard
  • Multithread functionionalities
  • NXOpen
  • Expressions
  • Teamcenter integration
  • Standard parameters and Drawing throught the whole company
  • Increased Licences Cost in Designing
  • Reduced Designers
The API is more great then by the others. Also the Integration in Teamcenter. This is also leading to collaborative functions.

Yes

Yes

Would you buy NX CAD again?

Yes

As a beginner in NX Programming it is difficult to lern it without access to the solutioncenter. There should be more examples and Tutorials supported for a open community. Also the Journal function should generate more code which is dynamically then doing the a one shot command. This also could help for non programmers getting in contact with NXOpen.
