The difference with Unite technology, says Brian Thompson, vice-president of Creo product management, is its Open capability, which allows users to import foreign CAD formats into the native environment without creating any new objects in the process and automatically manages changes as they come into the native environment.Īssemblies in Creo 3.0, such as those shown in this shaver model, now can more easily incorporate legacy CAD data, supplier models, and data from project partners. Many CAD software developers offer tools to import foreign CAD data, including PTC itself. In addition to the new Unite multi-CAD technology, Creo 3.0 will offer improved concept design capabilities to support design innovation as well as efficiency boosts to increase user productivity. With the ability to import SolidWorks, CATIA, NX, Solid Edge, and Autodesk Inventor files, as well as export and share files in those same common CAD formats, Creo 3.0 can eliminate the need to manage many secondary formats, according to PTC.Ī long-time provider of software and services for product-development companies, PTC introduced Creo 3.0 in Boston last week at the PTC Live Global user conference and exhibition. When PTC launches PTC Creo 3.0 in mid-July, the company reports that the collection of 3D modeling applications will be the first ever to allow users to import foreign CAD formats into the native CAD environment, easily reusing existing CAD data as is, in its current format, without the need for a upfront data migration.
