Industrial Machinery
Increasing global competition requires industrial machinery companies like yours to continuously innovate and optimize their products. The need to capture and leverage fresh value-creating ideas from your own employees, as well as from your partners, customers and suppliers, extends today’s innovation process beyond traditional boundaries.
Innovation has become a core driver of growth, performance, and valuation. You need to accelerate product delivery while ensuring a fast and appropriate return on your innovation investments.
These goals are compounded by the fact that today’s new product development process is comprised of hundreds of decision points and parallel work flows that now take place in a global context. Acuity's tools, support and training can help you to optimize your team's development efforts.
A very specific set of engineering technology tools are targeted at the special needs of industrial machinery design and manufacturing requirements. Acuity provides these best-in-class tools along with the training, consulting and support required to optimize their performance in your company.

Solid Edge CAD
Solid Edge has long been optimized for industrial machine design, and has deservedly carried the reputation as the best sheet metal design tool anywhere near its price. With additional enhancements for large assembly work in ST4, along with the specialized modules below, its no wonder that Solid Edge is the tool of choice for some of top machine design companys in the world.
- Solid Edge Wire Harness Design
- Solid Edge XpesRoute for tubing & piping
- Solid Edge Standard Parts
- Solid Edge Overview of Industrial Machinery Design
Engineering Data Management
Teamcenter PDM/PLM is the world's most widely used engineering data management system because it addresses the specialized needs of complex product design and manufacturing better than any other system. With special emphasis and optimization for industrial machine design, and the ability to manage not only engineering but manufacturing and analysis data as well, Teamcenter is the best choice for advanced industrial machine applications.
An alternative PDM system available for Solid Edge data management needs is Solid Edge Insight, which leveages Microsoft's Sharepoint data management environment.
Solid Edge
Solid Edge with Synchronous Technology is the most powerful, flexible and capable mid-range CAD tool available today. Built around the ability to effortlessly handle extremely large assemblies, do the most advanced sheet metal design, unprecedented 2D to 3D capabilities, and now, the unequaled Synchronous Technology, Solid Edge is the most CAD tool you can possibly purchase for your money.
NX CAD
NX CAD from Siemens PLM Software delivers next-generation design tools and technologies that help companies transform product development. Leading-edge design tools work in the context of the total development effort, fully integrating design with the other disciplines that bring products to market in a unified, managed environment.
NX design tools are superior in power, versatility, flexibility and productivity. From innovative Synchronous Technology that unites parametric and history-free modeling to NX Active Mockup for multi-CAD assembly design, NX delivers breakthrough technology that sets new standards for speed, performance, and ease of use.
Simulation (FEA)
Depending on your needs, Acuity can provide advanced product simulation and analysis solutions with integrated solutions for NX, or Femap, which integrates with Solid Edge but also works independently with any CAD solution.
NX CAM
As the world leader in computer-aided manufacturing, Siemens PLM software helps companies meet the challenge with leading-edge solutions. More than point solutions for discrete production tasks, the NX suite of manufacturing software links design and manufacturing to improve productivity throughout tooling and fixture design and NC machining processes.
Goldfire Innovation Software
Goldfire drives sustainable innovation, helping manufacturing companies around the world make innovation a value-driving core competency.
Goldfire delivers innovation results:
- Faster time to market with more innovative and differentiated products
- Reduced product design and development costs
- Improved product quality and reliability
- Increased value for the company’s intellectual property
- Increased productivity for innovation workers across the organization
- Improved revenues and bottom line profitability
Insight PDM for Solid Edge
Insight PDM comes fully integrated with Solid Edge Classic and Premium editions, and licenses can be purchased for all other "data consumers" in your company. Microsoft SharePoint is the core of Insight, and will need to be installed and implemented if not already available through your company's IT environment. Visit the Insight Product Page for more information.
Teamcenter PLM
Teamcenter is the world's leading PLM system, ranked in the leadership position in the PLM marketplace by CIMdata every year since 2002. Teamcenter can be installed with basic functionality (PDM) to form the core of your long-term PLM strategy, providing you a platform on which to build and provide continious process improvement for years to come.
