Question

Hi,

As we all know,Creo unite technology can open and saves as Solidworks、CATIA、NX.

Such as Solidworks:

To open function,when open a Solidworks assembly,we can only find the part in the model tree.we can't find the features

To save as function,When save as,we open it in Solidworks,it has no mates.

I have a question:What's the problems does the unite technology can help engineer to solves?Just open and save as the mulity-cad data direct?It looks useless.

great understanding !

just a little bit i know...

a separate part is not created

the part remains a solidworks,CATIA,NX part

there is no duplication.

and thus the updates are real time.

Thanks for you reply,

I know it can import,open,automatically update,save as.But i don't understanding how helpful it for us.

I hear from PTC technical engnieer,it's a great change—unite technology.It help us collabration and communication.But i find it can't retention features.It seems useless in collabration.

Are you talking core Creo or the optional collaboration extension?

I have core Creo 3 and found it useless in collaboration with SW.  I downgraded back to Creo 2 for several clients.

Also, you might check, but according to my SW VAR, Creo may be behind a few versions for a more parametric solution.

Feature recognition alone is not enough to remain collaborative.
