Start for free with Solid Edge OEM

Create unique, industry-specific software applications based on a mechanical CAD base, with our Solid Edge OEM development toolkit. Customize the Solid Edge interface to include your own set of engineering tools— and use your own images and logos to deliver a distinctive branded product to the marketplace.

What’s included?

With the Solid Edge OEM Development Toolkit, customize the Solid Edge interface to include your own set of solutions for product development—and use your own images and logos to deliver a distinctive and branded product to the marketplace. Because Solid Edge is based on the widely used Parasolid modeling kernel, your application will benefit from highly accurate data compatibility across the hundreds of other applications that rely on Parasolid.

Only license the capabilities you need with flexible licensing options. Unlike other OEM offerings, Solid Edge OEM has a modular structure, which means you only license and pay for the capabilities needed for your application. Experience the flexibility to meet target price points by mixing and matching tools right-sized for your market.

Modular, flexible software toolkit

Built-in CAD data management

Rapid custom application development

Seamless design data exchange

Part and sheet metal design

Specialized sheet metal design capabilities allow you to create and modify sheet metal features, from dimples and beads to lofted flanges and bend bulges, using sketches and engineering parameters, without having to regenerate unrelated geometry or downstream operations. Additionally, Solid Edge creates flat patterns automatically, including complex flattening required for press work.

Assembly modeling

Solid Edge makes creating and editing 3D computer-aided design (CAD) models faster and easier through Siemens’ unique synchronous technology – which combines the speed and simplicity of direct modeling with the flexibility and control of parametric design. State-of-the-art Convergent Modeling capabilities are also included, so scanned data as well as design data is immediately editable in the tool.
