PDQ detection and verification tool for implanted NX
CADdoctor for NX allows users to validate and repair 3D CAD data from within Siemens NX. Implementing CADdoctor for NX early in the design phase will help NX users at any level improve efficiency throughout the manufacturing enterprise. Because data quality reverberates all the way down the supply chain, the assurance of accurate, validated CAD data profoundly affects every stage of product lifecycle management (PLM).
1. PDQ Validation
NX users can operate PDQ validation using Check-Mate . Based on Elysium s years of experience, and in light of NX s specialties, CADdoctor for NX ensures reliable PDQ validation. It allows users to validate 26 critical check items including 16 most important items which comply with SASIG

2. Intelligent Repair
CADdoctor for NX can not only do simple data error repair, but also examine and repair the CAD geometric data thoroughly, so that the CAD data can be effectively used in the subsequent stages of the CAD data flow.
3. Assist I-deas NX to NX Migratoin
I-deas allows only one fixed tolerance per model. However NX has a tolerant modeling function which allows users to set varying tolerances within one model. These different methods of handling tolerances can cause problems with PDQ issues when migrating I-deas NX data to NX by the standard conversion tool.
CADdoctor for NX can easily identify issues caused by tolerance differences and greatly reduces the time to create a perfect model that passes PDQ checks.
4. Compatibility with Elysium's other products
ADdoctor for NX is capable of file level compatibility with Elysium family of products which include CADdoctor, a full functionally 3D geometry healing and modification tool, and ASFALIS, for automated CAD conversion.
