Summary / Reader response Final Draft
Lifesaving drones operate remotely to deliver essential medical supplies to rural areas (Zipline, 2019) . Therefore, the design must be reliable and cost-efficient to manufacture. The NX CAD software designed by Siemens optimises the design, testing and manufacturing processes. These unique features distinguish Siemens from its competitor. Some design optimisation features include 3D Design Validation, Design Interoperability, Product Modelling and many more (Siemens, 2022) . Such features allow the user to create an advanced virtual product model rather than costly physical prototypes. This feature will shorten the design time, lowering the development cost and improving product quality (Siemens, 2019) . Syncrofit is a feature of the NX CAD software that automates tedious design tasks, and bill of materials (BOM) updates to speed up the procurement process (Siemens, 2019) . This speed up the design realisation by a large margin. The webpage also menti...
