The new version of Solid Edge software introduces AI-based design AIDS that automate repetitive, common tasks to speed up design
The new software provides cloud-based collaboration and data sharing capabilities and can be subscribed as part of Siemens Xcelerator as a service through the Teamcenter Share app

Siemens Digital Industrial Software has launched Solid Edge 2024® as part of Siemens Xcelerator, a new version of Solid Edge that offers new artificial intelligence applications and cloud-based data sharing and collaboration capabilities for product design. Help manufacturing enterprises of all sizes to further implement digital transformation strategies, improve data reuse efficiency, and promote innovation in electromechanical design and manufacturing.

Bringing AI-assisted design into the mainstream

Solid Edge 2024 brings artificial intelligence (AI) -assisted design to Solid Edge software for the first time, including several key enhancements. Solid Edge 2024’s new AI assembly relationships will intelligently predict and provide effective alternatives when parts are placed in the assembly; In addition, the release includes an AI-driven user interface that learns usage patterns and displays context-appropriate commands at the cursor. Solid Edge® CAM Pro offers new AI-assisted Operation Editing capabilities that guide users through the process of editing a machining job and make recommendations based on machining applications and learned part programming styles.

These new features build on the system’s existing intelligent modeling capabilities. When combined with Solid Edge’s generative design capabilities, automatic design concepts based on predefined geometric and functional constraints can eliminate repetitive tasks from common tasks, speed up design, and allow designers and engineers to focus more on exploration and innovation. “Solid Edge 2024 can help us work smarter and increase productivity,” David Iverson of Ariel Corporation said, “By introducing AI into the design process, we are able to effectively reduce the time spent on repetitive tasks, and thus have more time to do other innovative work.”

Extend the benefits of cloud-based collaboration

Solid Edge SaaS subscriptions include access to cloud-based data sharing and collaboration capabilities through the Teamcenter® Share application. Teamcenter Share has a range of cloud capabilities to collaborate with colleagues, partners and customers from anywhere, on any device. The new Solid Edge provides streamlined integration with Siemens Industrial Software, improved Solid Edge ‘out of the box’ integration with Teamcenter Share, interactive previews of Office documents and 3D data, and enhanced display boards. Optimize task/status visibility, increase storage capabilities, and expand document support to help customers communicate better and move projects forward faster than market demands.
