Siemens PLM Software releases NX for Mac OS X
The full computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) functionality of NX, Siemens PLM Software’s flagship digital product development application, now includes the Mac in its list of supported operating environments. NX is used by companies to design and manufacture products. Its wide adoption throughout the global manufacturing industry is due in part to its ability to support a wide range of operating environments -- including Windows, Unix and Linux -- in a heterogeneous or single operating system deployment, according to Joan Hirsch, vice president of Product Design Solutions, Siemens PLM Software.
The Mac OS X version of NX includes all of the software’s CAD and CAM functionality, as well as support for Siemens PLM Software’s Teamcenter platform through rich client capabilities embedded in NX and the thin client based on Apple’s Safari web browser. As a result, NX for Mac OS X can leverage all the capabilities of Teamcenter, the world’s most widely used PLM portfolio, including its ability to support a multi-platform CAD strategy, Hirsch says.
