Siemens

Siemens Digital Industries Software, a division of Siemens, helps organizations of all sizes digitally transform using software, hardware and services from the Siemens Xcelerator business platform. Siemens' software and the comprehensive digital twin enable companies to optimize their design, engineering and manufacturing processes to turn today's ideas into the sustainable products of the future. Siemens Xcelerator for Startups is a program designed to help startups avoid growing pains with access to scalable software.

Clients get access to the following programs:

With the Siemens Xcelerator package, you have the power and flexibility to seamlessly bring your product to life, driving design excellence.

The package includes: 

  • NX CAD - Remove barriers to innovation, boost product design efficiency and quality, and reduce development costs with a powerful, integrated suite of computer-aided design (CAD) solutions.
  • Simcenter 3D Structural Simulation - A set of finite element (FE) structural solvers that are part of the Simcenter portfolio of simulation tools.
  • Teamcenter - Connect people and processes throughout your product lifecycle with a single source of data with Siemens Teamcenter product lifecycle management (PLM).
  • Siemens Xcelerator Academy - empowers you with the knowledge and skills you need to enable transformation, empower a high-performing workforce, and excel with continuous learning.

With the Siemens Xcelerator X package you have the power and flexibility to seamlessly bring your product to life, driving design excellence by leveraging a cloud deployment option for Teamcenter.

The package includes:

  • NX CAD - Remove barriers to innovation, boost product design efficiency and quality, and reduce development costs with a powerful, integrated suite of computer-aided design (CAD) solutions.
  • Simcenter 3D Structural Simulation - A set of finite element (FE) structural solvers that are part of the Simcenter portfolio of simulation tools.
  • Teamcenter X - SaaS license for Teamcenter Data Management - Connect people and processes throughout your product lifecycle with a single source of data with Siemens Teamcenter product lifecycle management (PLM).
  • Siemens Xcelerator Academy - empowers you with the knowledge and skills you need to enable transformation, empower a high-performing workforce, and excel with continuous learning.

Solid Edge for Startups offers an easy way to get started with Siemens Xcelerator. It includes a one-year free license of Solid Edge, plus CAD, CAM & CAE, training materials, and guidance from a community of product experts.

The Siemens Xcelerator for Simulation package starts with the Siemens Xcelerator package:

Then it adds:

  • Simcenter 1D System Simulation - Master complexity from the early design stage. Evaluate and balance potentially conflicting performance attributes from the early development stages to final performance validation and control calibration.
  • Simcenter STAR-CCM + - Improve product performance with multiphysics computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software for real-world conditions.
  • Value Based licensing – Access to tokens to enable additional physics simulation capabilities such as multi-physics disciplines, acoustics, motion, thermal and more. 
  • Siemens Xcelerator Academy - empowers you with the knowledge and skills you need to enable transformation, empower a high-performing workforce, and excel with continuous learning.

Connect teams and projects, and improve application development processes with a single, unified solution for requirements, coding, testing, and release though Polarion to enable: 

  • Requirements management: Effectively gather, author, approve and manage requirements for complex systems across entire project lifecycles.
  • Software management: Connect teams and projects, and improve application development processes with a single, unified solution for requirements, coding, testing and release. 

Simcenter Flotherm electronics cooling simulation software for accurate, fast thermal analysis and supports the development of a thermal digital twin. It provides pre-CAD concept design space exploration, increasing analysis fidelity during development by incorporating ECAD and MCAD data, to final design verification.
