  • Siemens’ NX X brings industry-leading product engineering software to the cloud – reducing IT complexity, enabling greater flexibility and fostering collaboration
  • Available in flexible deployment models, NX X enables design teams to access their critical toolset wherever and whenever

Siemens Digital Industries Software announced NX™ X software, a new cloud-based solution for product engineering that brings this industry-leading technology to companies of all sizes. A cornerstone of the Siemens Xcelerator as a Service cloud-based portfolio of industry software, NX X delivers industry leading product engineering capabilities as-a-service, enabling customers to free up resources, so they can scale and focus on innovation. 

“NX X enables our customers to move to a cloud-based, collaborative engineering environment. Our solution allows them to retain their intellectual property and continue their innovative work, without disruption; no need to reinvent their working practices,” said Bob Haubrock, senior vice president, Product Engineering Software, Siemens Digital Industries Software. “Transitioning to the cloud should be a painless process and we’re determined to help our customers to make that shift easily. NX X empowers them to remain focused on exploring the opportunities for collaborative innovation that drive their businesses forward.” 

Through centralized cloud license management, configuration, and provision of capability, NX X can simplify IT requirements. Organizations can install NX X on the desktop or stream via AWS cloud services where needed, which provides the greatest flexibility for distributed teams. 

Additionally, NX X also provides fully integrated and secure data management capabilities with every license, enabling users to manage product data, change management and release workflows and conduct collaborative reviews (with commenting, view/mark-up) in real-time – all directly from the NX X interface. Built using data and lifecycle management capabilities from Siemens’ Teamcenter® X software, NX X provides a clear route and seamless for organizations to adopt more powerful product lifecycle management (PLM) capabilities. NX X, as part of Siemens Xcelerator as a Service, also delivers cloud-based ad hoc data sharing and collaboration with external collaborators through the Teamcenter® Share app. 

Helixx, a UK-based e-mobility technology startup, has adopted NX X to help deliver its vision of delivering safe, affordable, zero-emission final mile electric vehicles built virtually anywhere in the world via its licensed Helixx Mobility Hubs.  

“Helixx was founded to transform the quality and standard of mobility for citizens in heavily congested cities with globally designed, but locally manufactured mini commercial electric vehicles. Having access to cutting edge product engineering software and the associated digital twins, wherever and whenever we need it, is fundamental to achieving our vision,” said Steve Pegg, CEO and co-founder, Helixx. “Siemens’ NX X provides the full capability of NX via the cloud, enabling us and our partners to access live design and manufacturing data instantly. Building the future of sustainable mobility and transportation is challenging, but with Siemens’ NX X available as a core part of our toolkit, we’re able to meet those challenges head on and build a cleaner future.”
