Solid Edge is a 3D design system that uses synchronous technology to accelerate design, make revisions faster, and enable better reuse. With 2D drafting, 3D part and assembly modeling, Solid Edge helps companies uniquely design better.
Solid Edge combines unprecedented flexibility and excellence in 3D CAD together with the cloud capabilities you need. Enhancements in synchronous technology and a faster, integrated data management solution. Move to Solid Edge and expand your horizons.

Solid Edge makes creating and editing 3D product designs faster and easier through our unique synchronous technology, combining the speed and simplicity of direct modeling with the flexibility and control of parametric design.
Simulation & PostprocessingSolid Edge Simulation is easy enough for any Solid Edge user who has a fundamental understanding of FEA principles, yet robust enough to service most of your analysis needs. By enabling engineers to perform their own simulation, more analysis gets done in less time.
You can interpret and understand the resulting model behavior quickly with the comprehensive graphical postprocessing tools. Model results can be displayed in a number of forms, including color and contour plots, which can be continuous,displayed as distinct contour bands or by element and displacement and mode shapes that can be animated.
ManufacturingSolid Edge offers seamlessly embedded CNC machine tool programming within the Solid Edge design environment, providing complete solid model-to-toolpath associativity. Programming is simplified using out-of-the-box automatic feature recognition, and best practices for machining operations are captured using a knowledge-based machining repository.
