Siemens introduces Solid Edge 2025 and Solid Edge X

Connect, collaborate, share - anytime, anywhere

Solid Edge includes tools that support integrated collaboration with Teamcenter Share app, Siemens’ collaboration service, included as part of the Siemens Xcelerator as a Service offering. Teamcenter Share allows users to collaborate on assemblies and track tasks seamlessly within Solid Edge, and create, edit and delete projects as needed. Data can be shared as needed using the service - which now supports datasets up to 500Gb.

For organizations looking to advance their digital transformation, the latest Solid Edge updates also streamline operations when using the integration with Siemens’ Teamcenter software for Product Lifecycle Management (PLM). Managed data now opens up to 50% faster with accelerated download speeds to enable users to get to work more quickly with complex datasets.

Also enhanced for this update is the ability to define and manage material definitions using the Integrated Material Management capability from Teamcenter. This enables customers to define managed material definitions, enabling the control of that critical data for accuracy, consistency, traceability and security - leading to optimized material usage, waste reduction and helping customers to achieve their sustainability targets through accurate, eco-friendly material selection.

Electrical schematics with cloud-based Capital X

Solid Edge 2025 integrates with Capital Electra X software, a new cloud-native electrical design tool from Siemens that allows designers and engineers to create electrical schematics quickly and efficiently. Available on any device, Capital Electra X delivers an intuitive and accessible platform to enhance electrical design capabilities - improving workflows and reducing overhead costs.

Smart and simplified machining: Solid Edge CAM Pro software brings enhancements to part programming and machining performance with new smart assistance that automatically recommends the best operations, streamlining toolpath creation and easing the programming process while 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.

Faster mesh generation, advanced flow and heat simulation

Improved integration with Simcenter Floefd for Solid Edge software allows directly imports complex CAD models for analysis, saving time in the simulation setup process. Simplified fluid flow and heat transfer analysis make it easy to evaluate product performance under various conditions. Mesh generation for convergent, faceted and STL geometries is now even faster. With new templates and tools, setting up complex simulations is easier and more streamlined.

Optimize design projects with NX interoperability and IFC file support

Interoperability between Solid Edge and NX software allows engineers to reuse data and work seamlessly with the software that best meets their needs. Easily transfer section views, advanced PMI, kinematic data and more between Solid Edge and NX. New enhancements support the import and export of International Foundation Class (IFC) file types, a standard in the construction and building industry, allowing users to store and exchange information about construction projects without translation.
