  • Top Enhancements in PTC Creo® Parametric™ 3.0
    Data Sheet Extension Top Enhancements in PTC Creo® Parametric™ 3.0 The Essential 3D Parametric CAD Solution PTC Creo Parametric, PTC’s 3D parametric modeling system, provides the broadest range of powerful yet flexible 3D CAD capa- bilities to help you address your most pressing design challenges. It uses proven technologies from Pro/ENGINEER®, plus hundreds of new capabilities to unlock design productivity. Here are some of the top enhancements in PTC Creo Parametric 3.0. Unparalleled multi-CAD data handling capabilities As well as being able to import neutral file formats (e.g., STEP, IGES, DXF, etc.) directly into PTC Creo Parametric, users can now both import and open CATIA®, SolidWorks®, and Siemens® NX TM files without the need for a separate translator or access to the native authoring software. With the addition of collaboration extensions, users can also collaborate with non-native PTC Creo software and receive automatic updates of geometry TM changes from CATIA®, SolidWorks TM , and Siemens NX inside PTC Creo Parametric. Drive Freestyle geometry parametrically With the introduction of a new Align capability inside Freestyle, PTC Creo Parametric users can now create and drive their freeform, stylized designs parametrically. Users have the ability to connect their Freestyle geometry to other external geometry with positional, tangent, or normal conditions. Any changes made to this external geometry will automatically update the Freestyle geometry during regeneration, maintaining the appropriate connection. This allows users to more effectively combine freeform, organic geometry with dimension based design intent.
