UGS Launches NX5 in China
 BEIJING,
China, April 20, 2007 - UGS Corp., a leading global provider of product
lifecycle management (PLM) software and services, today revealed details of
Version 5 of NX software and how it provides Greater Powers to manufacturing
industry in the Greater China region at a press briefing held in Beijing. NX
5 is the next generation of UGS digital product development software
designed to help companies develop innovative products faster and more
cost-efficiently.
NX 5 delivers breakthrough technologies and usability such as Design
Freedom, Active Mockup and NX Your Way, offering more flexibility,
coordination, and higher productivity. NX 5 seamlessly integrates
CAD/CAM/CAE into a unified, open environment. The latest release provides
users a new, extremely intuitive user interface to develop innovative
products.
“This year marks the 20th anniversary of UGS’ entrance into China,” said
Chuck Yuan, vice president and managing director of Greater China Operations
for UGS. “In the past 20 years, UGS has devoted itself to facilitating
product innovation by providing state-of-the-art software technologies, thus
enabling Chinese enterprises to improve their competitiveness. The launch of
NX 5 in Greater China further demonstrates the commitment and determination
of UGS to be part of the technology evolution within the Chinese market, as
it addresses ever growing needs of the market in Greater China and gives
users greater powers to capture knowledge, re-use best practices and achieve
standardization.”
NX 5 digital product development system promotes technology innovations
by increasing product and process information efficiency. With its unique
knowledge-based engineering methods, NX can effectively promote technology
innovations and increase the ability of Chinese companies to effectively
leverage knowledge across their business. Drawn from extensive experience of
serving customers from a wide variety of industries throughout the world, NX
can help Chinese users play even more of a critical role in the global
innovation network by improving the efficiency of the complete design
process, as well as reduce costs and shorten time to market. .
“By using NX, our overall work efficiency is greatly augmented,” said
Yang Guotao, CIO of Beiqi Foton Motor Co. Ltd from China. “The consistency
of the data of 3D model and the data of 2D drawing has improved from 50
percent to 90 percent, the design cycle was reduced by 40 percent, and
processing cycle decreased by 30 percent, while the quality of the product
greatly improved. NX knowledge-reuse function reduces initial product design
deficiency by 35 percent.”
In Greater China, NX has an extensive range of customers, covering
aerospace and defense, automotive, high-tech electronics, machinery and
consumer products. NX software also facilitates cooperation among
enterprises of Mainland China, Taiwan and Hong Kong, effectively improving
general design and manufacturing capabilities in the region.
Hongdu Group was the first NX customer in China 20 years ago and
maintains a good partnership with UGS. “Our engineers’ design and numerical
control manufacturing capabilities have improved greatly with the aid of
UGS’ NX and Teamcenter software,” said Song Likang, CIO of Hongdu Group.
“The value brought by the software is far beyond what we expected. They
helped us increase design capacity by 30 percent, reduce manufacturing time
by 30 percent. Seventy-five percent of our product data are managed by
Teamcenter.”
“Based on our many years of experience using NX CAD/CAM, we think its
freedom and usability will help us achieve the maximum benefit of style
modeling and manufacturing integration as we develop different cars,” said
Lousi Sheu, management office director, R&D Center, San Yang Industry Co.,
Ltd. from Taiwan. “Thus, we will be able to meet market needs faster.”
“With the design solutions and powerful design capabilities of NX
software, the efficiency of our product design has improved greatly,” said
Li Xincheng, engineering manager of TTI Group in Hong Kong. “Its
extraordinary capability in coordination, flexible means of operation, and
excellent capability in knowledge convergence has helped us improve our
original design models and realize the reuse of product design knowledge. It
is simple and easy to use, and thus significantly reduces the internal
software training cycle.”
As a recognized leading provider of PLM software, UGS is very committed
to the development of Chinese markets with increasing investment to
facilitate the transfer of Chinese enterprises from “Made in China” to “Made
with China”. In terms of NX software, UGS has cooperated actively with Jilin
University and Yancheng Institute of Technology in integrating Chinese
technologies into NX software, with a view to further improve the product
design and manufacturing processes.
