SolidEdge revision 20 – Conclusion

Here we have SolidEdge revision 20 highlights in a nutshell. It’s another rock solid release that shows a number of things.
The first is that the development team has a real handle on what its users are doing and where the boundaries of the application are being pushed – hence the Zoning, Structure Editor and other assembly handling tools.

The first two (Structure Editor and Zoning) are going to be extremely useful for many users and it’s fantastic to see these types of technology filtering down from the high-end systems into the mainstream where they are just as applicable.

Elsewhere, Siemens PLM Software seems to have realised that people do work with third-party data and has provided some intelligent tools that allow you to bring data in, work it into shape very quickly, and get on with the job in hand.

Finally, there’s always the thought leadership and I love the introduction of the Goal Seek tools – yes, it’s limited to just one input, but you can do something really useful with it and I would hope this gets expanded upon as there is always a need to solve fundamental engineering problems at the very early stage.
And when you consider that those tools are available in the free 2D application, that’s a powerful thing indeed – if not unique To sum up SolidEdge revision 20 is an impressive release, one that continues much of the good work done in previous versions.

While the Siemens acquisition is still at the very formative stage and it’s not quite the right time to comment on it, it’s clear that SolidEdge revision 20 is being developed aggressively and with the advent of the Velocity Series, is starting to take the position it has deserved all along within the mainstream market.
