Solid Edge, Unigraphics Solutions' mid-range CAD software package, provides breakthrough performance for mechanical assembly design and drafting, combining production-proven solid modeling and unparalleled ease of use at an affordable price.

Solid Edge is the easiest solid modeling system to learn and use because it was developed specifically for mechanical design professionals. It works the way designers and engineers think. Solid Edge's parametric, feature-based solid modeling operations follow a consistent, clearly defined, and intuitive progression of steps that are designed to boost your productivity.

Solid Edge’s powerful tools help you bring quality products to market faster by fully exploiting STREAM technology, the architecture within the software that makes Solid Edge users more productive than users of other CAD systems. STREAM technology optimizes overall workflow efficiency by improving the speed and effectiveness of user interactions. STREAM technology is why more people learn to use Solid Edge on their own, with little or no classroom training. It’s why designers, engineers, and drafters are so comfortable and productive with powerful features that are easy to master and control. It’s why Solid Edge customers reclaim their investment so much more quickly than those who use other systems. Proven performance is why Solid Edge is your best CAD investment.
