S70102-NANANA PTC today announced the eleventh release of its Creo® computer-aided Design (CAD) software and the latest version of its Creo+™ SaaS CAD solution. Creo enables engineers to deliver great designs in less time, and Creo 11 offers a wide range of enhancements in electrification, composite materials, model-based definitions, and simulation-driven design and manufacturing.
Brian Thompson, General Manager of PTC Creo, said:
Creo 11 and Creo+ provide enhancements that design engineers use every day. With improvements in AI-generated design and integrated simulation based on Asia Pacific, Creo enables customers to adopt simulation-driven design earlier in the development process, resulting in shorter time to market, improved initial product quality, and lower manufacturing costs. PTC continues to invest in Creo’s capabilities in model-based definition (MBD), electrical subsystem design, composite material design, and advanced manufacturing.
With Creo 11, customers can get the following features:
Usability and productivity enhancements: Investments in the core modeling environment includeS70102-NANANA support for the multi-body concept, streamlining part design workflows, improving the shrink envelope function for seamless assembly processing, and upgrading the shell volume function for better packaging solutions.
Improvements in electrification: Enhanced cabling and ECAD-MCAD collaboration capabilities coincide with the growing importance of electrification across industries. Customers can use wiring tools to precisely operate positions, place custom components more efficiently, and gain greater visibility into the wiring harness structure. Additional ECAD features such as transparency control improve PCB stack visibility.
Enhanced Composite design and Manufacturing: Advances in composite design, simulation, and manufacturing capabilities will continue to meet the increasing use of composite materials by design engineers.
Extended Model-based Definition (MBD) tools: More powerful model-based definition tools enable teams to easily organize design data into simple tables that can be read by both humans and machines through user-defined text, parameter calls, and semantic references.
Simulation-driven design and Generative design: Creo 11 introduces new simulation-driven design cS70102-NANANA apabilities for better design conceptualization, guidance, and validation. Creo’s generative design capabilities have been enhanced with minimal restrictions on feature size, bearing load support, and plane symmetry constraints.
Advanced manufacturing tools: Optimized additive and subtractive manufacturing tools ensure greater efficiency and versatility in the manufacturing process. Improvements include enhanced lattice structure creation capabilities, as well as smoother operations such as 4-axis turn-milling composite machining and zone turning.
In addition to the release of Creo 11, PTC also released the latest version of Creo+. With Creo+, users can leverage Creo’s powerful and proven capabilities in SaaS solutions, as well as cloud-enabled collaboration and authorization tools. Creo+ is fully upwardly compatible with on-premises Creo and is built on the same core technology as Creo, so no data transformation is required.
