UGS PLM Software Ships Velocity Series' Solid Edge Version 20
UGS PLM Software , a division of Siemens Automation and Drives ( A&D ), announced that Version 20 of UGS Solid EdgeT software is shipping to customers worldwide. UGS PLM Software is shipping the English version of UGS Solid Edge Version 20 and will ship nine additional languages throughout the coming 10 weeks.
UGS Solid Edge software is a powerful hybrid 2D/3D design system and a core component of the UGS Velocity SeriesT portfolio that enables manufacturing companies to achieve competitive advantage through cost reduction while increasing top-line revenues.
"It's what I'll call an 'industrial strength' 3D MCAD application," said Jeff Rowe, editor, MCADCafe. "Solid Edge V20 has more of a mechanical engineering 'feel,' and Goal Seeking is a good example of this. Solid Edge V20, at least from outward appearances, seems like a good release for those that deal with big assemblies."
Solid Edge V20 features more than 170 enhancements, including:
• Plant equipment and massive assembly design through zones, component replication and drawing review mode.
• Design collaboration to support PLM across the value chain through new service-oriented architecture (SOA) architecture, structure editor and assembly auto-constrain.
• Productivity improvements through Goal Seeking and tabulated drawings.
