Everything you should know about PTC Creo.

We have been talking a lot about PTC Creo in our blog lately. We introduced PTC Creo as an alternative to SolidWorks and compared the product with SolidWorks according to various criteria. In the following article we would like to show you everything you should know about PTC Creo.

What is Creo?

In short, it is a powerful, integrated family of product design software. It is used by thousands of leading manufacturers around the world and was developed by the founders of parametric CAD technology, PTC. The way Creo works is that it consists of individual apps, including:

  • Creo Parametric
  • Creo Simulates
  • Creo Direct
  • Creo Layout
  • Creo Options Modeler

Each Creo-Apps serves a different purpose in the product development process. This means that Creo guides you through all phases, including concept creation, design and analysis. It also enables you to communicate effectively with downstream partners, e. g. production and trade publications.

Why is Creo such a powerful tool for product development?

To answer this question, there are four key areas to focus on.

Flexibility.

For designers involved in multiple parts of product development, Creo provides scalable access to the right features. At the same time, for people involved in a particular aspect of the process, Creo apps are available that are tailored to your needs. It does not matter what role you play in the product development process. Using Creo means that you can use the right tool for the job.

All Creo apps are able to communicate seamlessly with each other. This means that your data can be easily exchanged between the different apps you use.

So you no longer need to track your work as you move through the design process. And there are no silos between the different phases of product development.

With Creo, you can access both approaches to 3D CAD modeling in one tool when you do your work. This means that in addition to the speed and flexibility of direct modeling, you have control over parametric modeling.

This advantage of Creo allows you to work with data from any CAD source. This means that you do not have to recreate designs based on compatible data, saving you time and money in the product development process.

Creo is a solution that enables companies to overcome the typical challenges of product design when designing, analyzing and sharing information between your teams, your partners and your customers.
