Solid Edge

Solid Edge ST5

Design Better

Solid Edge ST5 proves to the industry that listening to customers and delivering value is the key to better design. This latest Solid Edge release increases the flexibility of synchronous modelling, introduces steady state heat transfer to the simulation suite, bolsters its world-class drafting with the addition of nailboard creation, and features over 1300 customer-driven enhancements.

Benefits

• Flexible Synchronous Modelling
• Built-In Thermal Simulation
• World-Class Drafting 
• Solid Edge Mobile Viewer

Flexible Synchronous Modelling

Solid Edge ST5 takes synchronous design to a new level with multi-body modelling. With this integrated approach, imported assemblies can be consolidated into a single part file to better represent purchased components. Parts can be split or merged, giving you a flexible way to adapt designs to different manufacturing processes. With this and many other new capabilities, you can accelerate design, speed revisions, and improve imported 2D and 3D data re-use.

Built-In Thermal Simulation

Simulate designs involving steady-state heat transfer with Solid Edge ST5. Using proven Femap technology, designers or engineers can analyze thermal conditions on mechanical or electro-mechanical assemblies. When combined with other built-in solvers, designers have more tools to help shave material costs and reduce the need for physical prototypes.

World-Class Drafting

Drawings are the key deliverable for many companies, so we focus on helping you drive-down costs by reducing drawing production time. Production nailboard drawings derived from 3D wire harnesses are now automated, as are harness flattening, annotating, and adding connector drawings with pin details. Solid Edge ST5 also speeds drawing creation with improved parts lists, dimension display control, and text boxes with bullets and numbering.

Solid Edge Mobile Viewer

Solid Edge Mobile Viewer, a free iPad™ app available from the AppStore, allows anyone to view Solid Edge parts and assemblies. You can view 3D parts, show/hide assembly components, and create snapshot images that can be attached to e-mails.
