Key features

Drive design productivity and engineering creativity

Continual improvements to Solid Edge’s industry leading sheet metal capabilities streamline workflows and improve precision.

Elevate sheet metal design with new etch and bend features

Continual improvements to industry-leading sheet metal capabilities in Solid Edge help streamline workflows and improve precision. The updated features support complex geometries, offering improved bend calculation, making it easier to create accurate sheet metal parts.

Bend deduction and bend allowance allow you to control material conditions related to manufacturing and tooling. New etch features now support bends and curved faces, automatically placing etches on all relevant faces, while enhanced bend support shows detailed properties and calculation methods.

Speed and simplify model-based definition creation

Model-based definition (MBD) enhancements give you the tools to quickly detail 3D models more easily and accurately. With new hybrid annotations, insert dimensions and feature control frames into your designs with an efficient, all-in-one workflow.

Feature control frames and updated Surface Texture symbols help users adhere to ever-changing standards, while automatic dimensioning has been expanded to further ensure consistency and minimize errors.

Customize your design experience and enhance workflows

New customization options make it easier for both new and experienced users to tailor their Solid Edge experience, delivering a more intuitive and personalized design environment. With features like redesigned Vertical Command Bars and enhanced Context Toolbars, you can streamline your workflows and enjoy greater flexibility.

The Discovery Center offers a wide range of resources, learning materials and free trials, ensuring that users of all levels can quickly get up to speed and maximize their productivity.

Simplify machining with smart assistance and advanced operations

Boost programming and machining performance with new enhancements to Solid Edge CAM Pro. Smart assistance automatically recommends the best operations, streamlining toolpath creation and easing the programming process.

Advanced quick roughing and the zig-zag milling features simplify offset roughing and face milling. Automatic hole machining also makes selecting prismatic features like slots, steps and holes effortless.
