Construction
Perfection from the idea to the product
Design is the centrepiece of every successful product development. With CAD (Computer-Aided Design), ideas can not only be visualised precisely, but also tested and optimised in a virtual environment, allowing errors to be detected at an early stage and the entire development process to be made more efficient.


NX CAD
Your key to modern construction.
Use NX CAD to take your product development to the next level and optimise your design processes. With Siemens NX CAD you can:
- realise a continuous CAD/CAM process chain.
- independently design and process the most complex products virtually and pass them on without interface problems.
- carry out tests on virtual prototypes (e.g. temperature distribution, material load).
- Accelerate, automate and standardise your development process.
Realise your vision.
NX CAD: Your key to modern design.
Applications.
Seamlessly integrate mechanics, electronics and software development on one platform.
User friendliness.
Reduce manual tasks and create more space for creative design.
Virtual prototypes.
Develop and test prototypes in a virtual environment for faster results.
Flexibility in the design process.
Customise your design processes flexibly and retain full control.
Data continuity and collaboration.
Share CAD, CAM and CAE data seamlessly for maximum efficiency.
Automation.
Accelerate your product development with powerful workflows and automation.

Mechatronics Concept Designer
Prototypes brought to life - MCD tests before construction.
How many ways does your designer have to go to get a product ready for prototyping? We have reinvented the digital drawing board for you. It supports designers during development, allows complex kinematic designs and understands the needs of automation engineers and electricians. NX is your shortcut to the digital twin.
- Shorten time to market: 30 % shorter development time thanks to shorter paths.
- Promoting collaboration: Fewer misunderstandings through a common platform.
- Simplify decisions: Evaluate concepts in a virtual environment.
- Save costs: Build fewer physical prototypes.

Model Based Definition
The 3D model becomes the master plan - with MBD.
How many steps does it take to communicate your product data clearly and completely? With MBD, we have rethought technical drawing: all relevant information on dimensions, tolerances and material properties is integrated directly into your 3D model. MBD brings design and production closer together and simplifies communication – without the need for 2D drawings. Your advantages:
- Consistent data availability: All production information directly in the 3D model, always up-to-date and easily accessible.
- Process simplification: Seamless integration of design and production, fewer queries and misunderstandings.
- Faster approvals: Shorter approval cycles thanks to clear and comprehensible design data.
- Greater efficiency in production: reduction of errors and rework thanks to precise and complete model specifications.
