Built in PLM
NX X enables centralized management of design data, including CAD models, drawings, and related documents. This unified system ensures that all team members have access to the most up-to-date information, all within a single user dashboard.
Value base Licensing
Value-Based Licensing in NX offers a highly flexible and cost-effective way to access a wide range of NX add-on modules. With over 110 products available in the token pool, you have the freedom to tailor your workflows with exceptional flexibility. You only consume tokens for the features you use, eliminating the need to purchase each product individually. This is especially beneficial for accessing occasionally used tools, allowing you to run them as needed without a separate investment.
