Hello all. Long time Creo user and lurker of these forums. Currently on creo 9 with integrated simulate (not ansys) I have a model of a ball joint made out of 3 pieces of cast aluminium. I have designed an early version of a clamping bracket that i want to make from spring steel. One end of the bracket is fixed to the internals of the aluminium housing body for the ball joint, and the other end will rotate down and be pulled into position by a bolt and a barrel nut. In between these are some formed flanges that will contact and deflect on the ball joint faces as its tightened down. I know the angle of rotation i need to achieved in a prescribed rotational deflection i need to achieve to have this plate reach its final affixed position. I know there will be "large" deformation. However i cannot use the check box to interpret the rotation as radians...so how do i tell it to roate? The input box still says theta...do i put in degrees? arc length?the simulatio

I am using Creo Schematics Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.0.0您好PTC 我想请问下在Creo Schematics中可变接插件的entry_port的值无法像name值一样自动根据序号更新名称(如：默认名称为Pin_#,序号为 1，自动更新后的名称为Pin_1)，请问有什么方法解决这个问题如果有解决方案请电话:15527705829联系加工或者邮箱：15071650294@139.com   Translated by the moderation using Google Translate----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello PTC, I would like to ask about the entry_port value of the variable connector in Creo Schematics. It cannot automatically update the name according to the serial number like the name value (for example: the default name is Pin_#, the serial number is 1, and the automatically updated name is Pin_1) , is there any way to solve this problem?

Hello, so my problem is that i have a family table with three instances (A,B and generic). Depending on the choosen one, different Features in the lower parts should be activated or suppressed. So when i try to add a column with the Features, it wont let me choose them. I also tried it with Pro/Program but with no success. Are here others ways or have i done somethring wrong?Please answer me. ThanksSteve Creo9

Hello!I would like some help or a tip from the community.Is it possible to add a frequency data as input in a fatigue analysis in CREO Simulate?I am analyzing a hypothetical case of an "I" profile beam with a load of 5000N and a frequency of 1Hz.Has anyone encountered an identical or similar case?Does anyone have any tips on how I can add this input data to the analysis?I'm using Simulate on CREO 8.0 Thank you.

Hi,I have some problems with the file. I open 3d model and i want only check some in the features. I roll up line in the feature tree check information and close window with the 3d model. I don't want save this file in this shape so I don't click option "save as". When I try open again the same file I see model like I had before closing window. How can I set this to not save automatically after closing window?? I know that sometime is very useful option but I prefer have a control when the file is saved.  

Wanting to setup Creo 7, so that when we login and can use either metric or imperial.  I can do this by having a metric and an imperial start part, I think. But how do I go about it when I start a new drg, If I bring in a metric format, it will bring in our dtl file, but if I bring in an imperial format, it will be the same dtl file......do I have to create a metric and imperial config and setup a mapkey to switch between the two, when required ? Stuart

Need to take the reference of the feature PIPE_SET_START and PIPE_TO_POINT in the tube.asm in C# code to automate the CREO.      In the above picture I was take the reference of the PIPE_SET_START feature using edit reference icon. I was filter this feature using the type. now need to take that reference of the feature by C# code or any macro.

Dear Team,When I am trying to install Creo Element direct modelling 20.7, I got this error. I know this is specific to Windows, but somehow I am not able to fix this, please help me. OS- Windows 11 HomeProcessor - AMD Ryzen 5 Note- In Windows 10 it works perfectly fine. 

I have a list of data. Some do not give a solution within the tolerance. What is the best way to ignore and move onto the next set of data? Is there a way to set a more coarse tolerance value? Prime 10 attached.  

I have created a dll file with some functions, but could not use them in Mathcad. I want to use the function ComputeProductAndQuotient() in mathcad.Could some one help us? 

Is there a setting I can set in Creo to prompt me to update the drw file after modifying part and asm files? I know there is a value for the auto_drawing_update variable that causes an update. When you modify and save a part or asm file other than the variable values, the "Do you want to update related files?" message appears. A message appears. I would like to pop up a dialog box with the phrase:   Translated by the Community Moderation using Google Translate.    Creo에서 부품 및 asm 파일을 수정한 후 drw 파일을 업데이트하라는 대화 상자를 표시하도록 설정할 수 있는 설정이 있습니까?업데이트를 유발하는 auto_drawing_update 변수 값이 있다는 것을 알고 있습니다. 변수 값 이외의 부품 또는 asm 파일을 수정하고 저장하면 "관련 파일을 업데이트하시겠습니까?" 메시지가 나타납니다. 라는 문구가 있는 대화 상자를 띄우고 싶습니다.

Hello everyone! I have a graphics problem and that is: after having determined the equipotential lines (see photo) in a system with a square section and infinite length, made up of metal plates isolated from each other and at different potentials, I do not know how to make the field lines orthogonal to those of the potential. I have fixed two constant values ​​for the increments dx and dy. I attach the worksheet:  

EDIT: IMMEDIATELY AFTER POSTING, I SEE THAT THIS MAY BE A PRIME 10 BUG - CAN SOMEONE PLEASE CONFIRM? I am attempting to solve for a single variable (vf) by creating an equation that has the root function on the RHS of the equation. Rather than try to explain with words, here's a picture of the problematic function. Problematic Function I am passing multiple variables to the function that are defined above: Testhp is a variable defined with units of power, Fan is a matrix formed from a READEXCEL function, and the values are unitless until later extracted by column and appended with appropriate unit values within the worksheet, D is a variable defined in units of length, fluid is a string passed to a Mathcad wrapper that is used in an included worksheet, t is a variable defined in units of temperature and p is a variable defined in units of force per length squared. I find it odd that there is no error reported by the equation above the equation reporting an error, bu

Where ist the default location of Creo Parametric while it´s connected to windchill?When i search it in Creo itself it shows me that path: wtws://XYZ/DEFAULT Creo/But this path cannot be found in the explorer. I am trying to find the local workspace in my explorer.

Any Mathcad 6.0+ fans out there?I've been using it since 1995. I got the Mathcad 7 and 8 upgrades and hated them. So, I've been using 6.0+ ever since. Mathcad 6.0+ ran fine on Win 95, Win NT, Win 98, Win 2000, and Win XP. Win 2000 and XP were a little trickier to install. I just took a good install from a Win 95 machine, copied the whole WINMAD directory and transferred it to the 2000 or XP machine. Then I tweaked the Windows file associations manually. Now I have Windows 7. I tried the same procedure. Most everything works fine, except when I Save or Save As... Mathcad 6.0+ shuts down abruptly. I’ve fiddled with the Compatibility mode and settings, but I get the same results. Any suggestions?

Hello all,I have used generative design in order to make lighter my design. But when I generated results, the reconstructed shapes had an issue, the Align command for two different curves was not created. I have tried to create manually alignment, but it is not accept it.Thanks in advance for your help!Best regards,Vlas

Hello,i am currently making a calculation with Mathcad Prime 9.0, where i got 3 different load cases and i want them all in 1  sheet. i made a few formulas at the beginning, and will later calculate my loadcases with them. For that i wanted some variables to be empty, so that they will just shown as their variable name, so i can later change this variable in every load case to a different number. When i just use a non defined variable, the whole formula cant used furtherWhen i give the variable a value and change it later, it will not recalculate the formula with the updated variable. Is there a Solution for this? Or is this just how Mathcad works?

I'm a mathCAD prime 10 user. I'd like to make my own function which refers a lot of parameters. Among them, here "kinematic viscosity of temperature" is below. The problem here is that TB0 already has a unit, .However, during the process of obtaining detailed variables with "units", it's hard to ignore "existing units" and put "new units". Since parameter A and B both have complex units, I don't want to put complex units to both A and B. I wonder how I could get TB0, with their own units from my program. I already searched on the board and learned that deleting all the units used here and put new units to last values but there're more parameters aside from the attatched files so I don't want it. Please help me out of here!  Plus, I wonder how to set an input variable in a function, lub_app. Please refer to method1 and 2 below.

Hello! I'm Y.J. Kim. mathCAD prime 10 user.  I'm trying to solve a 3D thermal conduction equation in cylinderical coordinate. Does the mathCAD provide 3D PDE solver? Plus, can I get a provided manual how to use it easily? Can I also notice what specific solver  is used in PDE solver? Lastly, I'm wondering how you guys solve 3D PDE by mathCAD. Does anybody solve the equation by FEM with their own script for it? I wonder if it provides so that I could start my work either from mathCAD or python. I always appreciate you.

I would like to calculate the welding bracket correctly. But I have not yet found the right approach.Or should I simplify the model first?  Load: 4kN********************************************************************************* 

hey, i get this weird message in my Creo. i have no idea what caused it and i have no idea how to search for the feature which causes the 'break' also my model tree is half grayed out and i have no idea why. does anyone know the cause?  i have little experience with Creo and my company has very little technical support so forgive me if theres no enough information. 

I am trying to create a push button control in Mathcad prime 10, like a Mathcad-15 file attached here, please help me to create the same in Mathcad prime-10.Thank you.

Hello Again.  CREO Frustration week 10 - Just checking - is it really not possible to design "smart assemblies" were you can suppress parts/groups using parameters, unless I have access to PRO/program ?  I just happen to not access to this feature. Is it really not possible to do this using relations / parameters? Thanks in advance. 

Hello.  I am using Creo parametric 7.0.12 and Windchill, I am trying to make a copy of a drawing + part - keeping their association so I can re-name them as a new part number and make changes. However, the part I am trying to copy is an earlier version of the component in Windchill. so this is a level of complexity.  Our structure isabc.prtabcs.prt (this is the sheetmetal instance)abc.drw I want to rename them all to be dfg.prtdfgs.prt dfg.drw I have added to my workspace all the versions I would like to copy - both of the part and the drawing. But when I try to save as, I get an error!. It appears that the sheetmetal instance that I have  is preventing the save.  I get the same error message described in this link - but the solution does not work. >> https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS74897 << I have tried to delete the instance, but the option on the family table is greyed out - so I am not able t
