I bought Creo 2 a couple of years ago and I now want to use manikins, from child to adult sizes as I work in Education furniture design. My maintenance agreement has now ended. Do I have to pay and where can I download them?

Best answer by Chris3

If you don't need all of the manikin functionality, you can also just google for 3D CAD models that other people have created.

Hi Andrew,

You will need to contact Maintenance to renew your Maintenance contract and get an updated license.  Call 1-800-477-6435, 9 for Customer Care, 2 for Maintenance, License Management & Training.

Thanks,

Amit

Thanks Amit.

Bit disappointed that these cannot be paid for and downloaded separately without having to pay for a maintenance agreement. This agreement costs over £1200 a year and all I want is some manikins. I'm surprised PTC have missed this opportunity, the same missed opportunity of not allowing a Creo mobile app for Android tablets.

I'll go with Chris Rees answer and search for a step file manikin instead.

    Hi Andrew, have you called ptc? the folks in licensing are great, not that the folks in support aren't great to...but...

    the folks in licensing just need proof that you own the license, that's different than

          "did you pay your maintenance?"

            

    if you have a license for creo2 and it included manikins, they may open the gate for you.

    it may be worth the phone call, Amit's response has the number to call

    good luck

      Thanks David,

      Contacting PTC in the UK is not so easy! (Amit gave a USA number). However, I do have a valid service contract number (not sure if this is the 'licence' though). My seller in the UK has gone bust so I cannot contact them and the contact numbers given on the PTC website for UK buyers directs lines to the USA for technical support and they don't recognize my service contract number.

      I need manikins for all ages, from toddler to adult, hence the request. I don't however know what PTC can supply regarding this request.

      Anyone know where I can get this range of manikins?
