Saving PDFs from Solid Edge

Communication between you and your colleagues, customers, contractors, and suppliers has always been crucial to your success. This is even more critical in this time of social distancing caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. One of the more universal ways of sharing documents is through PDF files. PDF format allows the sharing of 2D and 3D documents electronically. Plus, most computers already have a PDF reader, so anyone can view these documents. Furthermore, the PDF format supports both 2D PDF and 3D PDF documents, which is ideal for communicating CAD data. With Solid Edge, you can save assemblies, parts, sheet metal parts, and draft documents in the PDF format. In this blog article, I will review the steps on how to save your Solid Edge files into the PDF format.

Maximizing your NC investment with Designfusion's CAM Services

Siemens NX G-code driven simulation is an essential part of staying competitive in today’s market and maximizing your machine tool investments. Validating your G-code before transferring a program to a machine tool is crucial. This becomes even more critical when working with 5-axis machines and multitasking machines. NC program validation can save time and money while also making sure company assets are kept safe.

Surface Modeling In Solid Edge

An introduction on how to model parts with an organic shape using surface modeling. Here we make use of the Blue Surf command and how to manipulate the surface using Blue Dots

NX CAM G-Code Driven Simulation with a DMG Mori CTX Gamma

This video highlights the advanced G-code Driven Simulation integrated with NX for Manufacturing. The DMG Mori CTX Gamma 5-axis machine is easily programmed and the verified using actual G-code before the program is sent to the machine. This capability ensures costly mistakes such as collisions, over travels, setup errors, and more can prevented. G-code Simulation will enhance productivity, increase efficiency and reduce cycle times.

Point Cloud in NX

In NX 1899 we can Reverse Engineer the scanned 3D point cloud data to convergent bodies using “Mesh from cloud” tool. A very handy and effective tool to work with organic and complex shapes in the additive manufacturing process.

A Baker’s Dozen of Tips and Tricks – Part 2

In this blog article, I will recap the second part of my annual Baker’s Dozen of Tips and Tricks, which was presented at recent Solid Edge Universities, in Toronto, Winnipeg and Red Deer. What follows is, the PowerPoint slides and links to videos showing what was demonstrated live, at the SEU events.

Tips to Improve the Performance of Solid Edge

We are regularly asked how to improve the performance of Solid Edge. The vast majority of performance issues can be improved by doing one of the following: a) Improve the performance of your computer b) Check your Solid Edge data for errors c)Take the Advanced Assembly course Let’s look at these different topics in some detail.

Creating Holes around a Tube in a Helical Pattern

Recently I had an interesting demo, where I was asked to model a tube with helically patterned holes. I was sure that we could do it, but I was surprised at the simplicity of it. But as I always say, everything is simple if you know what you are doing. Needless to say, the prospect was amazed at the speed with which we made his part and, I’m pleased to say, has become a customer. So, I thought I’d share this knowledge with our blog readers and I hope you find it beneficial.
