GE Aviation’s CAM process for creating training documents – (getting images out of NX) for CNC operators is too time-consuming, as the current workflow is inefficient.

​

Currently, the process of creating training documents includes many third-party solutions: PowerPoint, Snipping tool, and file conversion software on top of using Siemens NX.

​

This creates compatibility issues, on top of workflow inconsistencies (several programs to track and maintain).

​

This wastes time, switching programs and processing required tasks through them. Instead, we are trying to decrease process to two programs: NX and something to add text.

​

How can we reduce the image generation time from NX CAM?

​

We proposed a plug-in: ScreenPik for NX, to automate image generation.
