Solid Edge ST5 Flexible Synchronous Modeling Solid Edge ST5 takes synchronous design to a new level with multi-body modeling. With this integrated approach, imported assemblies can be consolidated into a single part file to better represent purchased components. Parts can be split or merged, giving you a flexible way to adapt designs to different manufacturing processes. With this and many other new capabilities, you can accelerate design, speed revisions, and improve imported 2D and 3D data re-use. Built-In Thermal Simulation Simulate designs involving steady-state heat transfer with Solid Edge ST5. Using proven Femap technology, designers or engineers can analyze thermal conditions on mechanical or electro-mechanical assemblies. When combined with other built-in solvers, designers have more tools to help shave material costs and reduce the need for physical prototypes. World-Class Drafting Drawings are the key deliverable for many companies, so we focus on helping you drive-down costs by reducing drawing production time. Production nailboard drawings derived from 3D wire harnesses are now automated, as are harness flattening, annotating, and adding connector drawings with pin details. Solid Edge ST5 also speeds drawing creation with improved parts lists, dimension display control, and text boxes with bullets and numbering.
