PTC Creo, the CAD and 3D modeling software

PTC Creo stands out for its focus on parametric design and its ability to directly integrate generative modeling functions, augmented reality (AR), simulation, and IoT tools. Additionally, its flexibility to work with both 2D and 3D models on the same platform makes it unique compared to the competition.

PTC Creo integrates with solutions like Windchill for product lifecycle management (PLM), Mathcad for engineering calculations, and ThingWorx for IoT applications. These integrations enable seamless and efficient collaboration among teams.

PTC Creo is widely used in industries such as industrial manufacturing, high-tech, automotive, aerospace and defense, and the medical sector, among others. These industries leverage its advanced parametric design, analysis, and manufacturing capabilities to develop innovative and efficient products.

System requirements include a compatible operating system (generally Windows 10 or higher), a multi-core CPU, at least 16 GB of RAM, and a GPU with support for high-performance graphics. For specific information, it is recommended to consult one of our experts.

PTC Creo uses a parametric approach that allows for intuitive changes to models while maintaining design consistency. It also simplifies version and revision management through tools like PTC Windchill PLM.

Creo includes specific tools for designing electrified products. These tools allow the integration of electrical and mechanical components in a single environment, making it easier to design products like electric vehicles or complex electronic devices.

This software allows you to design, optimize, and validate models for 3D printing in a single environment. You can use lattice structures to reduce the weight of parts and prepare models for printing in polymer or metal. The software also includes tools for print control, reducing the risk of manufacturing errors.

Creo integrates real-time simulation tools that can be combined with traditional CAD modeling. This allows for structural, thermal, and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analyses directly within the design environment, making product validation and optimization easier.

It offers multi-CAD collaboration capabilities, allowing you to work with files from different design systems. This simplifies integration into complex workflows and enhances collaboration with suppliers or customers using other CAD platforms.

PTC Creo allows for extensive configuration and customization of the workspace. You can adapt the interface, create macros and automations, and set up custom templates to streamline workflows tailored to your industry or company.

Generative design tools in Creo allow users to define goals and constraints so the software can automatically generate multiple design alternatives. You can specify parameters such as weight, strength, and materials, then explore the proposed solutions, making innovation in design easier.

PTC Creo allows integration with augmented reality tools through Vuforia. This enables designers and production teams to visualize CAD models in real-world environments, making it easier to conduct reviews and interactive presentations. You can create AR experiences directly from your models in Creo.

Creo offers advanced capabilities for fatigue analysis through its simulation module. You can apply cyclic loads to your models and evaluate their long-term behavior. This includes the ability to perform finite element analysis (FEA) to identify critical points and optimize the design before manufacturing.

Version and change management is carried out through the PTC Windchill system, which integrates with Creo. This system allows you to control revisions, manage workflows, and collaborate effectively with other team members. You can track changes, compare previous versions, and maintain a complete project history.

Creo offers integrated tools for performing thermal analyses using finite element analysis (FEA) simulations. You can apply specific thermal conditions to your model, evaluate how heat is distributed, and optimize the design to improve thermal management. This is especially useful in applications where thermal performance is critical, such as electronics or industrial machinery.
