DCS Partners With Siemens to Showcase New NX CAD Integrated Tool

Dimensional Control Systems is attending PLM World May 16th – 19th to demonstrated 3DCS for NX, a fully integrated variation analysis tool for Siemens NX CAD platform.

Detroit, MI, May 11, 2016 - Dimensional Control Systems (DCS) is demonstrating the new 3DCS for NX, a fully integrated variation analysis tool in Siemens NX CAD, at PLM World May 16th - 19th in Orlando, Florida at the Rosen Shingle Creek Hotel. This new version of 3DCS leverages all that the NX environment has to offer, from streamlined part updates to full utilization of embedded GD&T or PMI and Teamcenter file storage.


Siemens PLM World in Orlando, FL, is the largest of the PLM Connection Americas events. This annual event lasts four days and includes training, education and networking opportunities for professionals from a variety of job functions and industries. Siemens PLM Connections seek to bring together users of Siemens tools from across the world, from partners and Siemens PLM Software employees, to users from every kind of business in order to create new connections, expand knowledge and increase expertise.

3DCS for NX represents the newest form of the 3DCS Variation Analyst software suite. As the standard for variation analysis software across the automotive and aerospace industries, 3DCS offers powerful tools for engineers and designers to simulate their products assembly, process and 3D tolerance stack up to produce accurate results that can be used to reduce scrap, rework and quality issues that could lead to warranty and liability claims. As such, this new integration brings with it the opportunity for NX users to fully leverage the power of 3DCS in NX CAD platform and the Teamcenter environment.

"The integration of 3DCS into NX is an important stage in the development of 3DCS software," said John Mathieson, DCS CEO and President. "We are constantly striving to bring new features and develop the tools that engineers need to produce the next generation of products more efficiently."

By bringing 3DCS into the NX environment, users can take advantage of the tools that come with using the NX platform. This includes the ability to use new parts and models from NX CAD to quickly update variation models, as well as control these revisions and models within Teamcenter. Tying the variation analysis to the CAD platform also brings with it the ability to use PMI, Product Manufacturing Information, to apply GD&T to a model quickly.

Join DCS at PLM World at booth 325, and giving a demonstration at Knowledge Theatre 1 on Wednesday, May 18th at 1:30 pm. For more information about 3DCS for NX, visit DCS on the web at http://www.3dcs.com/nx.html . Find out more about PLM World on the web at http://www.plmworld.org/2016_about.
