PTC Creo 9 is a comprehensive CAD/CAM/CAE solution developed by the world-renowned Parametric Technology Corporation (PTC). It is best suited for machine design and manufacturing, mold design and processing. Enterprises using PTC Creo can fully control every stage of the manufacturing process, as Creo uses a shared database that is constantly updated throughout the product life cycle from product design to products, mechanical design to mold, mold definition and 3-5 axis CNC machining programming.

The flagship application in the Creo Suite, Creo Paramettric is the only software you need for 3D CAD. With Creo Paramettric, you can easily combine parametric and direct modeling; open custom CAD data and collaborate with virtually anyone using Unite technology; and relax knowing that all end products will be updated automatically. Combine these capabilities with easy-to-use features, and you have a tool that accelerates product development.

3D CAD:

• With Creo Parametic’s comprehensive capabilities in applications that specialize in direct modeling, Creo has what you need. Whether you need speed and flexibility to meet a deadline or are in the early stages of conceptual design, direct modeling allows you to work with geometry quickly and easily.
• Creo Parametic: Design an entire product using parametric and direct modeling
• Creo Direct: Interact directly with geometry. Suitable for individual CAD users.
• Creo Options Modeler: Easily create customized product variations
• Creo Elements/Direct Modeling: Comprehensive Direct modeling capabilities

2D CAD:

• Creo Sketch: Use this free download to capture initial ideas
• Creo Layout: Use 2D data to create 3D models that accurately reflect design intent
• Creo Schematics: Create 2D schematic designs of routed systems
• Creo Elements/Direct Edition: Meeting the 2D needs of designers and engineers

Simulation

• Simulate early and often with software that’s easy to install, use, and run. Now you can solve key design problems in engineering before you take your product to analytics.

Visualization

• Now colleagues can view your sketches in a file format that works for them, so design reviews are more efficient and data can be reused. A smaller, better prototype means faster design cycles and more for your budget.
• Creo View MCAD: Visual Viewer that allows non-CAD users to view their sketches
• Creo View ECAD: Allows the entire team to view PCB-related sketches
• Creo Pillustrate: Create stepnate 3D interactive steps
• Creo View Mobile: Use your iPad or iPhone to view models created in Creo View
