For decades, history-based modeling has dominated the CAD world for reasons we will discuss more later. History-based methods have a lot of power, such as being dimension driven, highly automated, and feature-based, but come with a lot of less desirable baggage such as the need for pre-planning, inflexibility and the fact that it slows down as you add many features or many parts. Meanwhile, direct edit methods have also existed for a long time and have several advantages, but because of its associated weaknesses, it could never compete with history-based modeling.

  • Solid Edge a Portfolio of Affordable, Easy-To-Use Software Solutions for Product Development
    Siemens PLM Software Solid Edge A portfolio of affordable, easy-to-use software solutions for product development solidedge.siemens.com Disruption in product design and manufacturing Digitalization technologies are changing how products are designed and manufactured. Product design is becoming a cross-discipline collaboration, because product complexity is increasing exponentially and the complete design-to-manufacture process can now be fully digitalized. Such advances are improv- ing efficiency and effectiveness for all companies, enabling their success and growth. But for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) especially, digitalization can be a tremendous source of competitive advantage. SMBs have become synonymous with innova- tion and disruption, but often lack the infrastructure to bring products to market quickly. Digitalization provides the ability to connect people, devices and businesses to lower or remove that barrier. Since SMBs are more agile, they can more easily leverage digital transformation to leapfrog the big incumbents. Today’s startups and SMBs can be tomorrow’s large enterprises. Siemens PLM Software empowers SMBs with solutions that address their unique needs. The Solid Edge® software portfolio delivers value, flexibility and choice: a modular, end-to-end solution that begins with an exceptional electromechanical design experi- ence that is seamlessly integrated with market-leading applications for product optimization, data management, documenta- tion, and manufacturing. “ 46.2% of decision makers believe that technology levels the playing field for small businesses versus larger corporations.” Thriving in the Digital Economy IDC 2 Disruption in product design Digital transformation and manufacturing technology 48.3% of SMB manufacturers Image courtesy of Radio Bro believe their efforts around Selecting a technology platform is an digital transformation will be important decision, one that a company essential to their company’s can live or die by.

  • New Math the Hidden Cost of Swapping CAD Kernels
    New Math The Hidden Cost of Swapping CAD Kernels Schnitger Corporation Schnitger Corporation Page 2 of 11 When we first wrote about the costs of switching CAD kernels a decade ago, we profiled a company that had twenty years’ worth of legacy designs to refresh. They could either find copies of the old software (and the hardware to run it on) or convert the parts to a new format and use a modern CAD system to move the designs forward. Old CAD on old hardware was a non-starter, leaving migrating everything to a new CAD system. But what to convert to? They already used SolidWorks in part of their business and considered moving the legacy parts to that platform. One big problem: Many of SolidWorks’ newest features rely on Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform. The traditional desktop SolidWorks is built on the Parasolid kernel, while the 3DEXPERIENCE platform uses the CGM kernel. This reliance on two kernels leads many users to worry that building parts in SolidWorks will eventually mean a wholesale conversion from Parasolid to CGM. If you migrate everything today, will you have to do it again in a few years? As you’ll see later, converting from one kernel to another can be tricky so, if there is an opportunity to avoid a kernel change, you should investigate this possibility. The company we wrote about decided that it couldn’t afford the risk, disruption, and uncertainty an unclear future might cause. They chose Siemens Solid Edge, which also uses the Parasolid kernel. Sticking with the same kernel simplified moving their Parasolid-based models from one CAD tool to another.
