Creo View ECAD, a viewer tailored for electronics.Ĩ. Creo View MCAD, which PTC says is a “lighter weight app for those who want to view, interrogate, and mark up MCAD geometry.”ħ. Creo Schematics, an app for creating 2D routed systems diagrams, like cabling and piping.Ħ. Creo Illustrate, a technical illustration app for communicating complex service information concepts graphically in 3D.ĥ. Creo Simulate for structural and thermal simulation.Ĥ. “When you want to interact directly with the 3D geometry.”ģ. Creo Direct for “history-free” direct modeling. PTC says it will have “all the capabilities of Creo Elements/Pro, aka Pro/ENGINEER.”Ģ. Creo Parametric for “history-based” parametric modeling. There are nine apps slated to be launched in the Creo 1.0 timeframe, seven of which are currently available.ġ. At the annual PlanetPTC Live event in June, the company revealed the first batch of products that would be delivered under the Creo name, all of which are being referred to as ‘apps.’ Now, referring to a 3D modeling application as an app may be confusing, but PTC’s reasoning lies in how it plans to present and deliver the products. This has been one of the biggest questions since the reformation was announced. If you’ve wondered what products actually comprise the Creo name or where your existing PTC products will fit in, you’re not alone. With the vision for Creo firmly planted and Jim Heppelmann taking the reigns of CEO in early October of 2010, PTC was “in essence “a new company, rebranded with a new roadmap for a product line that would, at the very least, change its position in the CAD industry, and ultimately deliver a new model of how to cross-pollinate modeling methodologies within an interoperable set of products.įeatures created in Creo Direct come into Creo Parametric as fully defined PTC knew it, and even more importantly, the users knew it. Previously, the PTC family of design software was a divergent mix of modeling, viewing and drawing programs with little to no connectedness, pushing the user to decide between using one modeling process or the other. The idea sprouted from the concept of a single program being able to do anything. 28, 2010 as a company’s vision for the future of product development has now become the app-driven product line claiming unparalleled direct modeling capabilities and a level of interoperability among programs the like of which has never been seen. What started at the announcement of Creo on Oct. Now, PTC is ready to deliver what they’ve promised, Creo, and what it says is the industry’s only true multi-paradigm design platform.ĬREO Direct allows features to blend with the adjustments in geometry. It was a vision then, lacking any defined product or pricing. In 2010 PTC shook up the CAD industry with the announcement that its flagship product, Pro/ENGINEER, and its whole product line was changing: changing names, changing features, changing possibilities.
