  2. Solid Edge: Design With Insight • Solid Edge is the premier value-based mainstream solution delivering practical, more efficient, Design Centric solutions for mechanical engineers and designers • Insight into Design Intent is required by all designers and associated personnel who use design data • Design Management provides design intent and is therefore a prerequisite part of the design process • Design Management is a built into Solid Edge via Microsoft .NET, not bolted on “The benefits of Solid Edge’s solution is simplicity. … while it’s invisible to the designers, Solid Edge Insight technology performs all of the critical functions our organization needs to insure the integrity and efficient access of our Solid Edge data. " Ken Grundey, Pella Corp

  3. Solid Edge Value Proposition By providing insight into design intent throughout the organization, complementing Solid Edge’s superior core modeling and process workflows, Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) and their related rework can be reduced by 50% or more. “The bottom line is that we came in ahead of schedule, under budget and with ECO's at only 10 percent of what we considered normal before Solid Edge.” Roger Wentworth, Gem City Engineering

  19. Systems DesignCapturing and Maintaining Design Intent Part and Sub Assembly Fit and Function Automatically Captured and Reused Correct Motion and Physical Contact Captured and Automatically Maintained Define, store and reuse cohesive sets of parts, features and constraints Sensors Monitor Critical Distances and Variables And… Insight Manages the Whole Process A system is a group of interacting parts and sub-assemblies, each containing sufficient knowledge to describe how it needs to perform in order to meet the design intent of the product

  20. Systems Design Progression • V10 Sensors • Monitor critical distances and variables • V11 Insight • Establishes control of assembly structure • V12 Capture Fit • Ensures correct placement of parts and Assemblies • V14 Introduced Systems Libraries • Define, store and reuse cohesive sets of parts, features and constraints • Speed up assembly design and improves confidence by storing and using design knowledge in other assemblies "Grouping parts in the System Library instead of in sub-assemblies will let our design engineers focus on components as functional systems“Chris Oesterle, CADD Support, Liebert Corp.

  21. Systems DesignInteractive Physical Analysis of Assembly Mechanisms • Automatic simulation of mechanisms and assemblies under the influence of forces and mechanical devices • Enabled by the mass and center-of-gravity of the parts in an assembly • Desired part to part interaction is captured and maintained • Physical Contact • Motion • System Libraries captures relationships and their associated behavior for reuse • Physically realistic behavior analysis reduces need for physical prototypes

  22. Systems DesignCapturing Design Intent • Assembly Context is the Framework for Capturing Design Intent • Assembly Features • Designed in context; only relevant in that assembly • Assembly Driven Part Features (ADPs) • Designed in context; driven down into individual parts for reuse in other assemblies

  23. Systems DesignCapturing Design Intent • Assembly Context Defines Differing Applications for Same Subassembly • Adjustable Assemblies • Under-constrained DOFs are defined in higher level assembly • Each occurrence may have different constraints and relative positions • Adjustability captured and maintained in Systems Library “The machinery we design for the beverage industry performs many complex functions, such as automated filling, packaging, labeling, cleaning and inspection. New adjustable design capabilities in Solid Edge Version 15 will enhance and speed our ability to understand multiple positions and avoid collisions within our assemblies which routinely top 10,000 parts each.” Thomas Philipp, Krones AG
