Title: Model-Based Characterization: Tracing Design Characteristics Throughout the Enterprise Using QIF and UUIDs.
Companies: Capvidia and Siemens
Speakers: Daniel Campbell, VP MBD, Capvidia. George Rendell, VP NX Design Product Management and Product Marketing, Siemens Digital Industries Software

Overview:

In this presentation, Siemens announced the inclusion of model-based characteristics natively in a future version of NX with bi-directional input and output to QIF.

With a major CAD vendor (and others) supporting QIF standards and Unique Universal Identifiers (UUIDs), large-scale manufacturing can begin building a digital thread  from design to manufacturing and quality control from a single source of truth. 

The end result: transformation of operations for greater efficiency, quality and competitiveness.

Topics to be discussed:

  • What is model-based characterization?
  • Why the characteristic is the atomic unit of product data.
  • Future version of NX will support model-based characteristics
  • Model-based characteristic associated with PMI and geometry creates a true digital thread from a single source of truth.
  • UUIDs help track model-based characteristics across the product lifecycle and domains.
