Creo: Design. The way it should be.

Imagine, design, create, and innovate your products better with Creo, 3D CAD/CAM/CAE software, and solutions for product design and development.

What is Creo?


Creo is the 3D CAD solution that helps you accelerate product innovation to build better products faster. Easy to learn, Creo uses a model-based approach to seamlessly take you from the earliest phases of product design to manufacturing, and beyond. Creo combines powerful, proven functionality with new technologies, including generative design, real-time simulation, advanced manufacturing, IIoT, and augmented reality.

Read about the enhancements to Creo 11.

Creo is also available as a SaaS product, providing innovative cloud-based tools for real-time collaboration and streamlined license management and deployment.

The world of product development moves quickly, and only Creo delivers the transformative tools you need to build a competitive advantage and gain market share.

New in Creo 11

PTC is proud to announce Creo 11, the latest version of our award-winning, powerful, yet easy-to-use CAD system. Creo helps you deliver your best designs in less time, with a wide range of enhancements for electrification, composites, model-based definition, simulation-driven design, and advanced manufacturing.

Creo simplifies your workflows and provides an unbroken chain of design, with no export/import needed. So, when your design requirements change, you can easily update your model to reflect the new conditions.

Creo 11 is better than ever, with exciting improvements to the tools you use every day.

Exceptional usability and productivity

ECAD

With every release, Creo introduces improvements to make design engineers more productive every day.

Creo now supports multibody concepts for designs containing multiple sheet metal and regular bodies, allowing you to better design sheet metal parts in context.

In addition, you can now transfer solid bodies from parts of an assembly into a single multibody part using the Shrink-wrap feature, making it easier and faster to work with your complex designs.

Creo now features an enhanced enclosure volume feature, to optimize and calculate the minimum bounding box of your part or assembly for packaging optimization.

Model-based definition (MBD) and detailing improvements

Creo now gives you even more powerful model-based definition tools to provide greater clarity with less effort. Now you can easily organize your design data in simple tables that can be read by humans and machines, with both user-defined text, parameter callouts, and semantic references.

Creating MBD annotations for cylindrical features is quicker, and semantic query is now available for inheritance models. GD&T Advisor has been updated to support ISO 22081 standard for general tolerances, for combined simplified hole callouts and enriched definition for slab and slot features.

MBD

Creo Schematics

Creo has improved cabling and ECAD-MCAD collaboration capabilities to power your circuitry and cabling designs.

Cabling tools for manipulation of locations have been improved. Locations can now be placed tangent to any Coordinate System axis and the “Remove Locations” tool has been completely overhauled for easier use. Placement of custom components and splices has been enhanced, and harness settings can now be changed during routing. Additionally, the cabling tree has been updated for greater visibility of harness structure and cabling entities.

ECAD capabilities have also been extended with the addition of Transparency Control, for improved visibility of PCB stack-up and overlapping ECAD layers.

Composites

Design engineers are finding applications of composite materials in more products than ever, and Creo 11 continues to expand composites design, simulation, and manufacturing capabilities. Creo has expanded functionality for transitions, laminate sections, and draping simulations. You can even use zone-based design to define and automatically build plies from zones. Manufacturing has been enhanced with extended ply boundaries, core sampling and the ability to export to leading laser projection systems.

Simulation

Additive
Creo includes new simulation-driven design capabilities, for better design ideation, guidance, and validation. Creo’s award-winning generative design has been improved with minimum feature size constraints, bearing load support and planar symmetry constraints.

Creo Simulation Live now includes conjugate heat transfer to enable heat transfer between solid geometry and fluid bodies, as well as expanded results for all types of CSL studies. And Creo Ansys Simulation also has transient structure analysis, which is used to determine the dynamic response of a structure with a time-dependent load.
