Siemens NX
Siemens NX is a powerful CAD/CAM/CAE software that enables advanced product design and engineering. With the power of Onepush you can streamline the process from engineering to manufacturing
Compatibility
The NX module Ship Structures Design is a program that provides capabilities for designing ship structures, including hulls, bulkheads, and decks. It offers tools for 3D modeling, finite element analysis, and collision avoidance, among others. The software also enables collaboration and communication among team members involved in the ship design process.
Onepush is the ideal solution for creating building packages after the 3D engineering phase, as it minimizes production errors and saves time. Compared to NX, our platform offers several advantages for converting 3D structural models to 2D DXFs and providing additional production information.
Enhanced geometry check
Production is often plagued by errors resulting from complex 3D structural design. Even the most skilled engineers make mistakes that are only discovered during production. However, with detailed and automated algorithms, these errors can be identified and corrected. The Onepush machine performs these checks on every model, reducing production issues.
Automated annotation placement
Errors such as overlapping, missing, or incorrect texts can slow down production and introduce inaccuracies. Our machine creates clean DXF files for all 2D outputs, which are error-free and ready to use.
Weld markings
Transform your welding tables and rules in a simplified automated process and enrich the DXF's with weldmarkings that every welder understands.
Export
To export 3D models from Siemens NX, you can follow these steps:
- Open the Siemens NX file containing the 3D model you want to export.
- Make sure the model is in the correct orientation and view that you want to export.
- Go to the File menu and select Export. This will open the Export dialog box.
- In the Export dialog box, select the STEP file format.
- Choose the location where you want to save the exported file and enter a name for it.
- Click the Save button to export the 3D model.

Data integration
You have the choice to transfer extra data, which is possible through exporting data from Siemens NX in csv format, such as:
- Material specification
- Assemblies
- Panels
If you require further information on data integration, please feel free to reach out to us.
However, it is not mandatory to transfer additional data to Onepush. Based on our expertise, a 3D construction model without any data generally suffices, as the Onepush Platform generates all the necessary information to produce a superior quality Building Package.
