- Design Validation
- Design validation in NX is a comprehensive process that ensures a product design meets all required specifications and performs its intended function under real-world conditions. NX provides a suite of tools for design validation, including simulation, analysis, and optimization capabilities.

- Embedded Simulation Wizards
NX CAD embedded simulation wizards are powerful tools integrated within the Siemens NX CAD environment, designed to streamline the simulation process for designers and engineers. These wizards simplify the setup and execution of various simulations, making it easier to validate and optimise designs early in the development process using the Simcenter Nastran solver.


Animation
NX Animation allows users to create dynamic visualisations of their CAD models. It provides tools to animate assemblies, mechanisms, and simulations to understand better how designs operate over time. Optimise the sequence of operations with the "video editor," such as creating timelines, creating animations, and finding interference between moving parts. Easily scale up to NX Motion for dynamic analysis and advanced motion analysis.

Motion
NX Motion enables engineers to investigate assembly performance earlier in development by quickly converting CAD assemblies to a functional motion model. By animating, graphing, and comparing reactions, velocities, and accelerations, engineers can gain insight into product performance. They can also perform structural analysis through direct load transfer to NX Design Simulation while maintaining full associativity with the CAD model.

Plastic part design validation and Mold filling
NX has Integrated tools that help designers assess the moldability of plastic parts. NX Molded Part Validation evaluates part models for moldability and performs basic filling simulation. NX EasyFill Analysis for injection molding simulation to evaluate molding issues that influence part quality.
Evaluate plastic parts designs and mold flow for wall thickness, undercuts, weld lines, air traps, pressure distribution, flow balance across runners, shrinkage, warpage and many other parameters
