NX Machining Hint Sheet

WHY SELL NX MACHINING?
UGS has a leading position in NC Machining and is recognized across the industry for the completeness of our solution set. Because the market is quite fragmented among many smaller products, there is a lot of opportunity to replace lesser systems with our high-value product sets.

HOW TO SELL NX MACHINING?
Effective approaches to sell NX Machining:

1. Improve Functionality. Often a new job or newly acquired machinery illuminates a limitation in a shop ’ s current application. High speed machines, mulit-function machines, 5-axis machines, all require specific functionality that many systems lack. NX delivers top-performing application sets for all of these.

2. Consolidate Software. Many shops have a patchwork quilt of applications to cover their requirements. NX includes modeling, drafting, NC programming, post processing, verification, machine simulation, etc. Translation worries go away, cost comes down, productivity goes up.

3. Integrate with a customer. GM, GE, and other OEMs prefer to work with suppliers that share the NX platform. Not only does this smooth out data concerns, but it allows collaboration and data management with Teamcenter tools as well.
