Hello, I used a subscription to simulate.Budget restrictions...I only have Creo 3 with Simulate "Light".I'm being asked to simulate a chassis in Step.I'm afraid Simulate won't allow me to convert surfaces to shell pairing and perform fatigue calculations.What do you think? Is it better to refuse?

Sorry in advance if this looks confusing but I'm wondering if someone can shed some light on this. Looking to route a wire from off the screen at the top left to the center of the picture (where the wire is currently going) is there a reason it's not following the remaining section of the network (in black) to get to the connector?  My only guess as to why it's doing what it's currently doing is because  the intersection where it should go is to tight of an angle based on the bend radius of the wire.  If that is the problem is there a better way of fixing it besides adding more points in my network? Really wish the network would be more straight lines and then let the wire dictate the curve. Thanks 

I am new to the PTC Creo Direct Modeling Express 6.0 setup, and downloaded this free single user CAD tool to get started with making 3D objects. I choose the 64-bit version, and installed on my Windows 8.1 machine. After installing, I want to start the program, and it asked me to activate for new users. After registering for an account with PTC, I then attempted to activate, and get the following:Connection failed.For Modeling Express to automatically activate, it requires access to the internet. Please check if a proxy has to be specified, and enter your company's proxy server details so that the activation can proceed.I don't have any proxy settings in my browser, and am on a home network behind a NetGear wireless router. I do have access to the internet, and can't seem to determine why I am getting this message. Has anyone else seen this before? Any idea what I need to do to get PTC to see the internet?

Hello Everyone.From : (view in My Videos) To :Solve , maximum of area of triangle_ACD ?Thanks in advance.Regards.

HelloI am trying to simulate the motion speed of a mechanism operated by DC motor.DC Motor Rotation Speed varies with the input torque as attached graph. But it seems impossible to define Motor Rotation Speed by using measured inputtorque in MDO.(There is only servo motor, whose speed does not depends on input torque) In this case, are there any method to simulate with the DC motor? I can calculate this motion in excel or mathcad, based on Torque value at each position angle from creo simulation with servo motor.But It would be great if this could be done just in Creo, or with a simpler workflow

Hello community, Is there an automatic method for restructuring a multi-level assembly to a single-level assembly?   Thanks

Hi Everyone,   This is for general discussion for the possible cause of "fatal error" while working with CREO.   I would like to know from tech guys that what are the major reasons for this particular error.   Please if any body knows, please do share your views. This might be helpful to many. And please give the reasons priority wise. Highest Priority cause to lowest priority cause.   Regards, Jignesh

Hi, Having some challenges with advanced controls in Prime 10. I have attached the worksheet for reference. Would appreciate any suggestions or work around. Listbox height is not fully resizing with font size. Some white space is left when resized to minimum height. If text boxes are arranged vertically, the dashed line around selected textbox overlaps significantly on adjacent text box. Bit of context.. Recent reluctant mover from Mathcad 15 to Prime 10. We do a lot of team collaboration, so we used to use Mathcad 15 worksheets as templates letting the testers to access only input and output sections of the Mathcad worksheet to test the multiple product models before fine tuning them. so, it's critical to fit as many list boxes and text boxes in input section. We are trying this out in Prime 10 and seeing basic challenges compared to Legacy version.

In Modeling Express, I have figured out how to save a single part as a STL using the "Select" button in the Save dialog, or I can save as STL all of the parts using the "All Objects" button in the Save dialog.  Is it possible to in the save dialog to save just a subset of the parts (meaning, more than one part but less than all parts)?

I am using Pro/ENGINEER and Creo Elements/Pro Release 17.0 and Datecode96130I changed the license host from a computer that died to the new device in the PTC licensing management website, but am having issues installing Creo with the new licensing information. I saved the license.txt file to the new device and it keeps telling me that the license server is not reachable, despite the fact that the license server is the local computer.

I would like some help to develop a loop in Mathcad that returns x-axis offset distances between intersection points of two curves based on the y-values of the respective curves. The attached Mathcad Prime 11 file contains the details and a fuller explanation of this request for assistance.Note, this is a follow-on from an earlier post titled "Mathcad Intersections and Discretized MatrixData". A link to this earlier discussion has been included at the top of the attached file for convenience.

Haven't received the email with the download link even though i completed the form multiple times

How can i create a datum plane parallel to screen orientation? Default coordinate system is oriented in the default orientation as i enter in an empty part model. I want to create a datum plane parallel to the screen, while the coordinate is in the default orientation.

I am using Creo Parametric 2.0 M250Hello PTC Support, please provide a download link for PTC Creo 2, latest datacode.

Hello Everyone.From : How to simplify the above ? Thanks in advance. Regards.

Hi All,In one of our machines, we installed Creo 12 with a Node locked license. Generated the license based on the host ID shown in the Creo installer. Creo runs perfectly. After a few days, it stops with the error (-9) invalid host ID. When we check, the previous host ID is no longer shown. It shows a whole different Host ID. Any assistance would help. If not, we may have to escalate to PTC.Regards.

I have old Mathcad 15 files that I need to convert to Mathcad Prime. Tried installing Matchad 15 but I can't find a download link. Is there any other way to achieve this?

Good day,I’m trying to redefine the default coordinate system that Creo assigns to a part or assembly.Background:I have a main assembly representing a vehicle, which is divided into multiple subassemblies — each assigned to a different designer. A recurring issue arises when a designer does not use a skeleton model: the parts or subassemblies do not assemble correctly when using the “Default” constraint in the main assembly.With a large top-level assembly, it becomes quite time-consuming if every designer has to manually constrain each part or subassembly to the correct position.Workaround Tried:One approach I’ve used is to create a new coordinate system in the desired position, export the part/assembly as a STEP file, customize the export to use this new coordinate system as the default, and then reimport it. This works, allowing me to use the “Default” constraint correctly — but it’s not an efficient process.Question:Is there a more direct or recommended way in Creo to redefine or re

Hello, I'm asking help to know if there is a way in assembly to make constraint play on values of a flexible element. I have a 6DOF robot arm saved as an flexible asm. To place it I'm currently making his base's origin concurrent with the floor's one (cf. constraints.png). In order to make it looks like the right position, I change each angle of rotation he had (which are all 6 flexible elements) degrees by degrees which is painfull (cf. flexible elements list.png). Regarding this issue, I want to know if it's possible to add an other constraint on the robot arm, this time with gripper and make both of his constraints change the value of the flexible element instead of changing all by hand.PS : I'm a using Creo 11 

Hello there,Is there any similar methods to run a native python or .cpp file in creo as like we do in Unigraphics NX ?I am trying to connect to a creo 9.0 environment , from external command prompt as like creoson, but after that can i pass the creo toolkit commands to creo via that terminal ? 

Was using free trial and then my school put their license on my computer and now all my documents I was using on the free trial say file not supported. Need files urgently for deadline

A challenge from Facebook, and one of the (wrong) answers.   My solution is in the closed area.  Have some fun.

Is it possible to download old PTC software during Sustained Support? Unable to find old datecodes of expired PTC products on Software Download web page. Is it possible to download installation files for products which are expired and no longer part of Standard Support policy?

I would like some help to develop a loop in Mathcad that appends each intersection point between a piecewise linear curve and a set of straight lines, to the piecewise linear curve matrix. The attached Mathcad Prime 11 file contains the details and a fuller explanation of this request for assistance. 

Hi Creo Team, While performing Dynamic Time analysis should the mass normalization parameter  sim_massnorm_modes in Config.pro be set to 'Yes' or does the Dynamic Time analysis automatically sets the parameter to 'Yes' when running. Regards,GS
