Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology software is a groundbreaking release – delivering a new modelling paradigm that combines the speed and flexibility of explicit modelling with the control and predictability of parameterized design. Whether you are a casual or expert user, Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology allows you to innovate faster than your competition.

To compliment this release, SOLID Applications Limited, is please to announce the availability of Update training dates. The Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology Update Training is priced at £400 per person, and run over 2 days (the price includes lunch and refreshments).

Highlights of this training course include:

A new design environment

  • Integrated 2D and 3D sketching
  • Region-based design
  • Face collection features
  • Microsoft Office 2007 Style user interface

Synchronous Technology tools
Live Rules enable flexible editing by automatically maintaining relationships such as co-planar, tangent, concentric, horizontal or vertical within your 3D geometry, by intent or inference.

Procedural features allow you to change parameters for Hole patterns, Thinwall and Rounds, thereby maintaining feature-based design, without feature-to-feature dependencies.

Driving 3D dimensions added directly on your models with inferred and/or explicit 3D bi-directional dimensions independent from creation order to give directional edit control with exact results.

Table- and formula-driven design capabilities maintain highly automated, parametric design functions of Solid Edge.

Steering wheel and 3D handles that provide ‘grab and go’ editing capabilities.

Top Tip from the Helpdesk

The angular line illustrated to the right has linear dimensions placed from end to end both horizontally and vertically. Using the distance between command this could take up to 8 mouse clicks.

To rapidly place these dimensions you can use the Smart Dimension command in conjunction with the Shift Key on your keyboard. The direction in which you move your mouse cursor will determine whether the dimension is placed horizontal or vertical.
