See here for what you can expect from NX PCB inside the latest release…
Following the updates from last months NX release, we want to be able to bring you more details surrounding the different applications within NX. This post focuses on NX’s Printed Circuit Boards application. Please see below for more details.
Overall in this release, Flexible Printed Circuit Design enhancements focus on electronics and mechanical design collaboration in a managed environment, and productivity workflows for rigid-flex and flex boards. We will be looking into the following updates:
•Conversion of rigid-flex designs into Flexible Printed Circuit Design (FPCD) native parts
•Improved error handling and user feedback during conversion
•Enhanced electronic component placement workflows
•Support managed IDX collaboration within Teamcenter co-design object
There is a video demonstrating all of this at the end of this article.
Conversion of rigid-flex designs
With the conversion of rigid-flex designs you will find that there is a simple single click to do just that.
What’s new?
