Siemens PLM Software - NX for Manufacturing

Advanced Manufacturing Solutions to Drive Smarter Product Decisions

Success in production depends on the quality and thoroughness of your manufacturing plan. To be truly effective, part manufacturing plans need to be complete, accurate and delivered to production when they are needed.

As you define the manufacturing plan and take it to the shop floor for execution, Siemens supports you with a complete set of manufacturing solutions, from computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) and tooling design software to machine tool controllers.

Manufacturing Advantages

Integrated Software Applications and Equipment

Siemens PLM Software provides the entire NX software suite of CAD, CAM, CAE and CMM programming applications all in one system, to support your full range manufacturing engineering needs. In addition, Siemens Sinumerik machine tool controllers can help you achieve your production automation requirements, from shop floor manufacturing to large batch production.

Data and Process Management

Teamcenter provides data and process management that allows manufacturing engineering and production teams to work together using a single source of information. This helps you eliminate the need for multiple databases, re-use proven methods, manage tooling, and connect the work package directly to the point of execution.

Connect Planning to Production

You can access manufacturing planning data directly from the shop floor by connecting PLM to production systems. By connecting Teamcenter and your shop floor system for direct numerical control (DNC) and tool management, you can send machining data and tool list information directly to CNC machines.
