Enhance your 3D geometric modeling, simulation, manufacturing, collaboration and visualization applications with our portfolio of software components, openly licensed to 3D software application developers.
PLM Components
Enhance your 3D geometric modeling, simulation, manufacturing, collaboration and visualization applications with our portfolio of software components, openly licensed to 3D software application developers.
Reduce the cost and risk of delivering 3D software innovation to your customers and increase the value of your applications in design, simulation, manufacturing, collaboration and visualization by joining hundreds of software vendors who choose PLM Components.
Our leading solutions for geometric modeling, digital manufacturing, simulation, visualization and data exchange have a proven history of continuous innovation, industry-tested quality and consistent high performance.
Licensing our 3D software developer toolkits to build a new software application—rather than reinventing the wheel with a proprietary solution—is often an easy decision. For more established software applications, switching to an alternative solution for innovative design, manufacturing or simulation capabilities may require more careful consideration.
With a broad set of benefits that we've consistently demonstrated over decades, licensing our solutions is an attractive option for both new and established 3D software development companies.
Take advantage of the widely adopted JT file format for 3D model data collaboration and visualization in your applications. The JT Open Toolkit is a C++ API that enables your applications to read and write ISO-compliant JT files. The JT Open Toolkit provides support for 64-bit application development on Microsoft Windows, Linux and MacOS. Purchasers of the JT Open Toolkit are automatically accepted into the JT Open Program as fee-based members. The toolkit includes full documentation for the Toolkit API and PLM XML SDK.
View and interact with 3D data on your choice of desktop/mobile platform using JT2Go—our free viewer for JT and Parasolid XT data. JT COMPONENTS JT2Go View and interact with 3D data on your choice of desktop and mobile platforms using JT2Go - Siemens Digital Industries Software free viewer for JT and Parasolid XT data. Collaborate with the ISO-standard JT data format at no cost. Choose your preferred viewer—our comprehensive desktop application, or mobile solutions on iOS and Android.
Improve collaboration efficiency throughout the product lifecycle by supporting workflows requiring application integration, interoperability and data sharing. A lightweight, flexible mechanism for transporting high-content product data, PLM XML represents a variety of product data both explicitly and via references. PLM XML schemas are the basis of a rich interoperability pipeline connecting Siemens Digital Industries Software products and third-party adopter applications. PLM XML is complementary to existing and emerging XML-based standards.
Deliver leading applications in product design, simulation and manufacturing with Parasolid. With 900+ functions, Parasolid supports a range of modeling techniques, including solid modeling, direct editing and free-form surface/sheet modeling. Parasolid also delivers convergent modeling technology, which extends its robust B-rep modeling functions to models based on facet representations.
Accelerate your 3D software development with D-Cubed components: productivity-enhancing solutions for your computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided engineering (CAE) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) applications. D-Cubed components are used across industries to accelerate the design and manufacture of products from consumer goods to aircraft engines and commercial buildings.
Explore our portfolio of Kineo software components for automatic motion planning, collision detection and flexible cable simulation. These technologies are integrated into software applications for automotive, aerospace, energy, shipbuilding and manufacturing industries. Applications include industrial robot simulation, digital mockup, assembly/disassembly verification and accessibility studies.
Find similar parts no matter how they are named and enable informed decisions in virtually every aspect of PLM, from design to process planning to procurement. The part you are about to design might already exist. Consolidation of suppliers of similar parts is an opportunity to negotiate a better price. This data exists within the enterprise but is scattered—hidden in plain sight—by the inconsistent naming that confounds traditional search.
Implement optimal graphical representations of your 3D models with your choice of 3D visualization SDK (Software Developer Kit) from Siemens. Create stunning photorealistic renderings that leave little to the imagination, or focus on engineering-oriented output with model sections and annotations. Choose a software component to match your requirements in terms of breadth of functional requirements, quality of rendering and platform support.
Create, edit and evaluate finite element models of complex products/systems using advanced CAE pre- and post-processors to model components, assemblies or systems. Minimize costly prototyping using best-in-class simulation workflows. Simcenter Femap is an advanced simulation pre- and post-processor for creating and editing finite element models of complex products. Powerful data-driven results visualization help you evaluate and improve product performance.
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. Because Solid Edge is based on the widely used Parasolid modeling kernel, your application will have highly accurate data compatibility with the hundreds of other applications using Parasolid.
Join a growing ecosystem of software vendors and end-users who choose PLM Components for their software applications in computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) and computer-aided engineering (CAE).
