Generative Design with HEEDS

Multi-objective design exploration

• Optimize with parameter driven CAD or

mesh morphing.

• Rapid attainment of optimal designs

considering competing objectives.

• Multidisciplinary optimization

• High level of automation.

• Large ecosystem of integrated solvers

• In PLM context, configurations are stored

and managed and can be reused.

Delivering a platform for multidisciplinary design

Our vision:

Ability to use information from multiple

disciplines and scale it as needed

Ability to connect the representations

of an object from different disciplines

Ability to navigate and understand

relationships between representations

Ability to create libraries that contain

representations of the same object for

different disciplines



Integrating process control diagrams

NX P&ID Designer:

Intelligent 2D P&ID Diagramming

tool for P&ID designers

Intended for developing functional

or logical diagrams

Includes authoring, libraries,

validation, 2D to 3D, and data

management

Completely new NX application

developed from the ground up
