Solid Edge with synchronous technology (Synchronous Technology) - Integrated 2D/3D CAD-item-system without building a tree from Siemens PLM Software s core product line and the Velocity Series. Solid Edge is built on core Parasolid geometric modeling and is compatible with Microsoft Office.
The system provides capabilities for modeling parts and assemblies, creating drawings, design data management and has a built-in finite element analysis (FEA).

Requirements and information about the OS:
The current release of Solid Edge has been certified to run on the following configurations:

Windows XP Professional 64-bit
Windows Vista Business or Vista Enterprise 64-bit
Windows 7 Enterprise, Ultimate and Professional 64-bit
Internet Explorer 8 (IE 6.0 meets the minimum requirements)
Windows ME, Windows 98, Windows NT 4.0, and Windows 2000 are not supported. It is not recommended to run Solid Edge on Server-versions.

Solid Edge will not install on a computer without Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher. You do not need to Internet Explorer was the default browser.

Hardware requirements:

Solid Edge does not support the processors prior to Intel Pentium 4 or AMD Athlon 64 (SSE2 instruction set required), does not support the processor Intel Itanium.

Information and requirements for the graphics system:

Solid Edge will run on the system, a graphics driver that supports Windows XP or Windows Vista or Windows 7. For optimum performance it is recommended to use a professional graphics card, designed for use with CAD applications. Information about graphics cards used in the testing Solid Edge and the results smotrtite here. To work with large assemblies of complex parts, we recommend a graphics card with at least 256 MB of memory.
