Converting Traditional to Synchronous

We have seen many great examples of Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology in action over the past few months. Most of these examples focus on either geometry that is purely synchronous or has been imported from another 3D Design solution such as SolidWorks or Inventor. Some previous posts which are worthy of a mention include - Imported Data, PMI [...]

Making Synchronous Design Changes in an Assembly

We have seen various posts and examples that demonstrate the benefits that Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology has when it comes to initial geometry creation or making fast flexible design changes. Some of these include:-
Unified 2D & 3D
Steering Wheel
Live Rules
PMI Dimensions
Editing Imported Data
However all of these examples focus on the creation and manipulation of geometry within [...]

Discover the truth – Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology now shipping

Like me you may have been following all the attention Synchronous Technology has received since its launch in May 2008. Comments and opinions have been made in various marketing medias by those that “get it” and those that don’t. Some of those that don’t have inferred that it is just hype, smoke and [...]

Editing Imported Models The Easy Way

We have seen quite a few examples of how we can use the tools in Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology in order to generate and manipulate designs which have been constructed natively in Solid Edge. So, the question is – How can we deal with imported models that were originally constructed in another CAD product? [...]

PMI Dimensions Drive 3D Geometry

Following on from my last post which focused on Live Rules, I would like to show you how easy it is to apply PMI (Product Manufacturing Information) dimensions directly to a 3D model. We have been able to generate PMI information in Solid Edge for some time now but Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology actually allows [...]

Live Rules Allow Fast and Predictable Changes

We have already seen a few examples of how Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology allows you to make fast and predictable changes to a design regardless of how the model was built. My last post focused on using the Steering Wheel to make these changes. For this post I want to illustrate how the Live [...]

Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology Unifies 2D and 3D Commands

Following on from my post regarding the Siemens PLM announcement of Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology I wanted to create a series of informative posts that try to illustrate the differences between working in traditional Solid Edge (or any other history based CAD application) and Synchronous based Solid Edge.
This post will show how to create [...]

Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology

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 [...]

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 [...]
