NX CAD/CAM Training – From Design to Manufacturing Excellence
What is NX CAD/CAM?
NX (Siemens NX) is one of the most advanced and integrated CAD/CAM/CAE software suites in the world. It is widely used across industries such as automotive, aerospace, heavy machinery, energy, and consumer products for high-precision design, engineering, and manufacturing.
- NX CAD (Computer-Aided Design) – Focuses on creating 3D product designs, assemblies, sheet metal parts, molds, and drafting documentation.
- NX CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) – Enables toolpath generation, CNC programming, milling, turning, drilling, and machining simulations for efficient manufacturing.
By learning NX CAD/CAM, engineers and designers gain the ability to design, simulate, and manufacture products seamlessly within one platform.
Training Modules
🔹 NX CAD (Design)
- Part Modeling: 3D modeling of mechanical components with parametric features.
- Assembly Design: Creating assemblies, checking motion, and analyzing fit & clearance.
- Sheet Metal Design: Designing sheet metal parts with bends, flanges, cutouts, and forming features.
- Drafting & Detailing: 2D drawings with GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing).
- Surface Modeling: Freeform surface creation for complex designs (aerospace/automotive).
- Mold & Die Design: Tools for injection molding and die-casting industries.
🔹 NX CAM (Manufacturing)
- CNC Programming: Toolpath generation for turning, milling, drilling, and multi-axis machining.
- 2-Axis & 3-Axis Machining: Essential milling operations.
- 5-Axis Machining: Advanced toolpath generation for aerospace/complex components.
- Turning & Mill-Turn: NC programming for lathes and multi-tasking machines.
- Drilling & Hole-Making Cycles: Automated drilling operations.
- Tool Library Management: Creating and managing CNC tools.
