Steven Marjieh posted this🎓 Excited to announce: My Advanced NX CAD Tools & Methods course is officially live! After years of working in professional CAD environments, I've seen firsthand how certain "advanced" tools can save designers dozens���even hundreds—of hours on complex projects. Yet accessing quality training for these techniques often costs $2,000-$5,000+. That's why I created this course differently. What's Inside: Advanced Sketcher Tools & Methods (on-path workflows, reuse strategies, sketch groups) Organization Tools (design groups, delayed updates, intelligent tree management) Assembly Joints & Couplers (your gateway to kinematics) Real-world modeling practices from actual production environments Here's the truth: Many of these tools aren't "advanced" because they're difficult—they're classified that way because they require context and understanding of when and why to use them. Once you grasp these concepts, they become invaluable daily tools. Why This Matters: The delayed updates technique alone has saved me hours on large assembly modifications. Design groups have transformed how I structure models—so much so that colleagues regularly use my model structure as their reference template. I'm incredibly proud of that. This isn't a "one and done" course. I'm committed to continuously adding content as I explore additional tools and refine methods. Think of it as an evolving resource that grows with the NX platform. Free previews available so you can evaluate the content before purchasing. Quality CAD education shouldn't require a $5,000 investment. I believe these practices should be accessible to anyone looking to level up their skills.

Steven Marjieh shared thisIf you are gloating that the next generation is doomed (or insert any insult), on LinkedIn of all places, then you are part of the reason for that failure. Maybe use the moment to teach someone something positive and reinforce that the preceding generation actually cares and wants what is best for the following generations. Personally, I am sick and tired of the 'Wiser Elders' making fun of young adults and kids for their lack of abilities.

Steven Marjieh reacted on this🔧 Stop making CAD modeling harder than it needs to be! I've discovered that most CAD users are missing out on 3 incredibly powerful tools that are hiding in plain sight. 🎯 Here's what you're probably not using: 1. Multi-Parameter Editing → Select multiple features and hit ENTER. Game changer for batch modifications. 2. Step Expression Tool → Watch your model update in real-time as you adjust parameters. No more guess-and-check! 3. Browse Tool for User Expressions → Finally understand what's connected to what in complex models. Essential for file auditing. 💡 These aren't just "nice to have" features - they're workflow accelerators that can save hours on complex projects. Whether you're working on automotive panels, aerospace components, or intricate parametric designs, these tools will transform how you approach modeling. The Step Expression tool alone has revolutionized how I handle surface modeling. Instead of typing values, hitting enter, waiting for updates, and repeating endlessly, I can now watch the model morph dynamically while maintaining full control. 🚀 Ready to master advanced CAD techniques? I break down these tools (and many more) in my comprehensive training courses. What's your biggest CAD workflow challenge? Drop it in the comments - your question might inspire my next tutorial! 👇 🎥 Full tutorial available on my YouTube channel 📚 Advanced training: www.stevenmarji.com #CAD #SolidWorks #EngineeringDesign #ParametricModeling #ProductDesign #MechanicalEngineering #3DModeling #CADTips #ManufacturingEngineering #DesignEngineering #EngineeringEducation #CADTraining #ProfessionalDevelopment #Engineering https://lnkd.in/gz9-vxCx

Steven Marjieh reacted on this🧭 Master the NX Part Navigator: Hidden Tools That Will Transform Your Workflow Most NX users barely scratch the surface of what the Part Navigator can do. After years of working across different CAD platforms (V5, CATIA, NX), I've discovered navigation tools that can dramatically speed up your modeling process. 🎯 Game-Changing Navigator Features: 🗂️ Body View vs. Timestamp Order - Switch views to see parent-child relationships and identify unused geometry 🔍 Unused Items Detection - Automatically find and clean up unnecessary features cluttering your model 📍 Fit View to Selection - Instantly center and zoom to any tree item (NX equivalent of CATIA's "reframe on") 🎯 Pan to Selection - Center objects without changing zoom level 🔗 Find in Navigator - Locate selected objects in complex trees instantly 💡 Pro Workflow Tips: The "Exclude DATUMs from Fit" tool alone is worth its weight in gold. How many times have you tried to fit your model only to have massive datum planes shrink your part to a tiny dot in the center? This solves that instantly. For those transitioning from CATIA V5, these tools bridge the gap and give you the navigation control you're used to. The key is customizing your interface to keep these tools accessible - don't bury them in menus you'll never find. 🏗️ Why This Matters: Clean, organized models aren't just about aesthetics. They're about creating robust parametric designs that exercise well, are easy to modify, and can be handed off to team members without confusion. ⚡ Quick Setup Tip: Learn interface customization first. I've made my free NX interface course available because proper setup is the foundation of efficient modeling. What's your biggest NX navigation challenge?

Steven Marjieh reacted on this🎯 Why Most CAD Training Fails (And How We Can Fix It) After 25+ years in CAD education—from GM's legendary training programs to modern reseller courses—I need to address something that's been bothering me for decades. The Problem: Most CAD training today is essentially "help documentation on steroids." You learn what buttons to push, but not WHY or HOW to use them properly. It's designed to create dependency, not competence. What I Witnessed at GM vs. Resellers: ✅ GM: Deep, rich training with design standards and best practices built-in ❌ Resellers: Surface-level tool training followed by expensive "consulting upsells" The Real Issue: Many instructors know the software inside-out but lack real design experience. Or they've been teaching so long they're disconnected from current best practices. Students leave knowing how to use tools but not how to design properly. My Philosophy (Learned the Hard Way): Always teach good practice alongside tool operation Address the "why" behind every method Use real-world examples, not just demo parts There usually IS one right way—despite what people say about "multiple approaches" The Result? Students who can actually go back to work and be productive immediately, not spend months unlearning bad habits. 💡 What needs to change: Training should build competent designers, not create consulting dependencies. If you've experienced this frustration in your CAD education journey, you're not alone. The industry can do better. 🎓 This is exactly why I structure my courses differently: www.stevenmarji.com What's been your experience with CAD training? Let's discuss how we can elevate the industry standard. 👇 https://lnkd.in/gi8Hj3HZ #CADTraining #EngineeringEducation #ProductDesign #CAD #ProfessionalDevelopment #EngineeringSkills #DesignStandards #CADEducation #EngineeringTrainingWhy Most CAD Training Falls Short - A 25-Year Industry Insider's PerspectiveWhy Most CAD Training Falls Short - A 25-Year Industry Insider's Perspective

The definition for class A is redefined weekly at this point.
I've spent decades making conic surfaces look like they have G3 and it works just fine.
Like anything ever, over complication of things does not mean better quality.

Victor Sedrick It's been turned into a dead end job by the C-Suite folks but designers are still needed.
The result is the enshitification of everything. Things look good but do not last. Or, the things are made to be tossed out after the warranty expires.
Companies have been trying for decades to get rid of those poopy non-degreed people but it is often that person holding things together. As a designer you did not need a degree. Just skills.
They did it with tradesmen. Let's recruit everyone and everything to get rid of those poopy non-degreed tradesmen because they are unwashed boors... But now, as the old timers retire, everyone is setting their hair on fire looking for competent tradesmen.
The cosmopolitan class are the last group to be eaten alive but when they do it is extremely bombastic and big.

Steven Marjieh liked thisSteven Marjieh liked thisCATIA History - Episode 53 Today, I would like to start a new series of posts dedicated to the history of my beloved brand: CATIA. Let’s begin with a look at some fascinating pictures from the San Diego Air & Space Museum archives: 👉 https://lnkd.in/dzwEUa-C I especially love the first one. It shows the complete IBM workstation on which I trained in 1995 with CATIA Version 3: the large IBM system unit, the keyboards with functional keys, and of course the famous 4-button optical mouse 😀. For many engineers of that generation, this hardware was the gateway to 3D innovation. Back then, working in CAD meant powerful UNIX machines, dedicated environments, and a strong learning curve. But it also opened the door to advanced surface modeling and digital product development, especially in aerospace. The long and incredible journey of CATIA explains why it is today the leading solutions for #VirtualTwin development across all industries. Many thanks to my friend Tim Moloney for sharing this photostream with me 🙏 If you also have historical pictures, stories, or memories related to CATIA, please don’t hesitate to contact me. I would love to highlight them in this series 😉 #CATIA #3DEXPERIENCE #Engineering #CAD #DigitalTransformation #Aerospace #Innovation Dassault Systèmes Olivier Sappin Philippe LAUFER Géraldine Gandveau

Steven Marjieh liked thisSteven Marjieh liked thisCATIA History - Episode 54 In 1985, a major milestone took place in the history of CATIA: the famous benchmark at Boeing, based on CATIA Version 2. This benchmark played a key role in demonstrating the power of 3D digital design and advanced surfacing for aerospace programs. At that time, moving from 2D to 3D was not just a technological evolution, it was a strategic transformation for the entire industry. A few days ago, my friend Antoine Reymond kindly shared with me the content of his final presentation on this topic 🙏. The long and incredible journey of CATIA explains why today Dassault Systèmes provides the leading solutions for #VirtualTwin development across all industries.
