Siemens PLM Software have now publicly announced the next greatly anticipated version of Solid Edge. This is not called V21 but is “Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology”. This new ground breaking technology is far too revolutionary to just be called Solid Edge V21.
I have just completed my training on this new version and it was [...]

Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology
Everyone is talking about Synchronous Technology
Synchronous Technology has certainly got everyone talking.
Industry commentators, the press, CAD users and bloggers are all commenting on this new technology. As you would expect some are positive, some negative, some indifferent, some accurate and some inaccurate.
However we mustn’t lose site of the purpose on any CAD system. It is [...]
Re-use Multi CAD Data Easily
Synchronous Technology allows users to reuse data from other CAD systems without remodelling. Users can succeed in a multi-CAD environment with a fast, flexible system that enables them to edit other CAD system data faster than they can in the original system, regardless of the design methodology. A technique called ’suggestive selection’ automatically infers the [...]

CAD So Easy Anyone Can Use It
Synchronous Technology provides a new user interaction experience that simplifies CAD and makes 3D as easy to use as 2D. The interaction paradigm merges historically independent 2D and 3D environments, providing the robustness of a mature 3D modeller with the ease of 2D. New inference technology automatically infers common constraints and executes typical commands based on [...]

Make Design Changes Fast
Synchronous Technology automates the implementation of planned or unplanned design changes to seconds versus hours thorough unparalleled ease of editing, regardless of design origination, with or without the presence of a history tree.
The next release of Solid Edge due summer 2008 will include Synchronous Technology
Bill many thanks for your thoughts. I agree with you many of the recommendations could apply to other software.
