Design Collaboration across all points of the value chain in support of PLM
The Need for Collaboration has never been higher
More companies competing and operating on global stage
V20 Continues to build on design collaboration tools of previous versions
Taking Advantage of New Teamcenter Architecture

Massive Assemblies broadens footprint in Plant Equipment Design Market
Plant Equipment Design has stringent requirements for management of large assemblies for:
Individual machines and factory floorIntegration of machines in a single or multiple production lines.
Plant layout in functional or geometric regions, Common Piping, wiring and other ancillaries
Solid Edge now has:Zones
Help designers isolate areas of large assembliesIncreases massive assembly performance
Machine and Factory LayoutManipulate sub-assemblies fast
Component Grouping Keeps BOM and assembly structures organized
Drawing Review Mode Open drawings of massive assemblies in seconds
Solid Edge advanced assembly design capabilities have been used by many companies such as VAI, Anglo Platinum and Krones to layout factory floors and design equipment for their plants of 100,000+ components.

Zones
Solid Edge is the first mid range modeler to take advantage of ZonesAllow designers to define a permanent design envelope to isolate areas of large designs they are responsible for at a sub system level
Boosts PerformanceHelps designers focus on their design responsibility at sublevel
Intelligent caching Retrieves only parts in the zone, without having to open component files to determine if they lie in the zone or notSignificant performance boost when switching zones or opening a massive assembly
Quickly open/show/hide selected zonesComponents easily added or removed based on Zone CriteriaMakes working with Massive Assemblies more Manageable

Machine and Factory Layout
Copy, Move, Rotate or array existing sub assemblies within an assemblyAdjacent relationships are broken while maintaining internal relationships
Adjacent relationships can be re-established with the new assembly
Position with drag, coordinates, vectors or exiting components or other traditional CAD methods
Quickly build multiple copies of parts or subassembliesEfficiently layout factory floors with machinery and connecting systems such as conveyors and trunk work
© UGS Corp. 2006. All rights reserved. 14
Component Grouping
Allows designers to efficiently collect parts and sub assembliesinto organized groupsOrganize Assembly structures
Expand / CollapseReorder multiple components at onceUngroupNested Grouping
Allows easy component structuringLeaves BOM and Assembly Relationships undisturbed
Selection functions - Allows grouped components to be controlled from single collector
Quickly Activate / Inactivate orShow / Hide Components
Speeds up selections for animation, move part, fasteners and query selection

‘Drawing Review Mode’ allows rapid opening of drawing for reviewing, measuring or printing no matter how big or detailed the drawing is.
Drawing can be fully loaded after opening if required (for updates/edits)
Drastically decreases time to do drawing reviews
Continued reduction of draft file size
Eliminate storing unneeded hidden edges
Drawings take up less storage space and open more quickly.

More 64 Bit Support
Increased support for Windows 64 bit OS architectureAllows massive assemblies and their associated Drawings to benefit increase in available resources
Insight supports 64 bit Solid EdgeDeployment options now include
XP32
XP64 with 32 bit applications
XP64 with native 64 bit applications

Goal Seeking
2D graphical engineering problem solving Similar to Excel
2D what-if engineering calculations with a combination of 2D parametric geometry, mathematical formulas, variables and part properties Knowing the target value of an engineering calculation, goal seeking allows users to set certain parameters, while the system varies other factors to achieve the desired result.
Available across all Solid Edge 2D operations, Draft, Part profile, assy layoutFind Center of Area, perimeter, moment of inertia and more
Results can be used to drive 3D geometry in a true hybrid 2D/3D design environmentAvoids Labor intensive iterative calculations, allowing engineers to do ‘What If’ scenarios
