Creo+ and Creo Parametric

I am using Pro/ENGINEER and Creo Elements/Pro Release Wildfire 5.0 and DatecodeM050Need to install a new license file

Looking for suggestions on how to model a sheet metal part that is a long and narrow L shaped bracket. A portion of one of the legs is formed into a shallow vee shape. The remaining portion of the leg is left out of the die and is flat. I’ve modeled the leg using a swept blend but can’t get it to unbend using deformations. Have attempted many other methods to model the part unsuccessfully. The transition area from vee to flat is noncritical. Thoughts? 

Why am I not able to place end plates at the end of beams against a round wall? As you can see in the second photo it works on a flat wall. Thank you.   

HiRecently I have been learning Creo Toolkit.I have some doubts about using ProToolkit and Creo Object Toolkit The development environment is VS2019 and Creo 9. As a beginner, I started learning the Protoolkit and later learned the Object Toolkit. I referred to the example code of PTC and found that there are exceptions when using interfaces that both exist. The Pro toolkit interface works properly, but the object toolkit interface may cause program crashes. Debug information output "Invalid parameter passed to C runtime function."For example, when selecting model items interactively, the ProSelect() function in the toolkit interface works properly, while the pfcSession:: Select() function crashes when the cancel button is clicked; When displaying messages, the Toolkit interface ProMessage Display() function can function properly, while the object Toolkit interface pfcSession:: UIDisplayMessage will crash. Similar situations occur in interface functions such as pfcSession:: U

Hi Team, I have attached a snapshot. I am using C# for my uses and vb API to communicate creo app. my requirement is to be control on pop-up message's "OK" or "Close" button, Is there any way to get control on this "OK" or "Close" button from my C# code? I mean want control to close that pop-up from my C# code using vb API. Any suggestion  would be appreciated. 

I am using CREO parametric version 6.0. I need to flatten conical flight in CREO is there any method to flatten flight ?

I modelled flight screw in CREO version 6.0 .  for manufacturing purpose I need to flatten the flight. top surface of the screw is essential for manufacturing purpose, so I am using flatten quilt to get the flatten the surface and the surface as been flattened. I am using flatten quilt deformation I am able to project the divided segments from the helical screw to flatten quilt , but i did not get exact dimensions from the flatten and helical it varies around 10 to 15mm is there any possible way to get the exact dimension. 1.helical form 2.flatten form  

session stopped, tried to open again and got the following error message   The code execution cannot proceed because pglcgf_sh.dll was not found.  Reinstalling the program may fix this problem.   I reinstalled Creo and same message returned

Any idea why the revolve Axis pattern keeps failing?  I have patterned the sketch with the extrude but no difference.  The sketch patterns fine, but the extrude will only do 1 additional pattern.  This is for a spur gear where I input parameters like #teeth and the model should update.  Only the pattern about axis is causing issues.  Something with my references?  I have an older spur gear file from Wildfire 2.0 that works for one feature (half the gear tooth) over 40 teeth and then the other feature (other half of gear tooth) only works up until about 30 teeth then it fails to create the additional patterns beyond that.  File attached is of my new spur-gear where only one additional extrude pattern is being created, others are failing to generate.  Reference issue?  

Hello community, I've got a question related to a start template for 3D Parts in Creo. Is there a possibility to adjust the size of the reference datums? I know the parameter "datum_display_default" which is already set to "preconfiguredsize", "datum_outline_default_height" and "datum_outline_default_width" are also set.  The problem is that the first reference datums are not affected by this paramter. Is there another way to adjust these datums? Many thanks and best regardsChristian

Hi, I need to collapse a feature in the model tree but the feature is greyed out when the part has a family table. I need to collapse a "Copy" feature to remove its reference to make it independent of any reference. I'm using Creo 8 

AllI've taken some of the introductions to CREO Simulation applications including Ansys and their own internal application. I've been trying to apply this in my designs, and have had good success in optimizing parts designed individually.I'm working on incorporating analysis into assemblies to get a better idea of how forces from one part transfer to an adjoining component.    For the above simulation, the assembly constraint for the lever arm was a "Pin" with rotational limits that went past the point of contact.Additionally, 3D Contacts were added for the lever-CAM-radius and the flat surface they would be contacting.Note however all the force from the lever is being transmitted into the block at the first junction (Red Circles), and not at the lever-CAM contact points (Orange Circles.) Is this a problem with:- Assembly constraints?- Mechanism setup?- My expectations for Live Simulation? Appreciate any insight!Dave

Good morning, We use the CREO application, not Math cad! I therefore cannot choose the “Creo Expert Moldbase” “Creo Tool Design” “Creo Design Essentials” solution for support in using Creo software.

I am using Creo Simulate Release 4.0 and DatecodeM070The Large deflection option is unavailable to select for a single pass contact analysis#, do I need a different licences to select this option?Here are the errors that I faced*** Warning: Large deformation and/or strain detected during contact analysis.   More accurate results may be obtained if 'Calculate Large Deformations' is selected.

Hi all, I have been trying hard for the last few days to calculate thrust on a propeller, but failed miserably in every attempt. Since there are no detailed videos showing this (or i couldn't find them), can anyone show or tell me here how to do it.I have tried using rotating wall and non-inertial frame. 

ERROR - Entities do not form loops; cannot modify draft hatching Cannot select draft entity, I'm in sketch tab even cannot select draft entity with Alt key.

Hi everyone,I am doing a drawing for a 6 cylinder crankshaft and I need to show Cross sections for all lubrication holes along the crankshaft axis. The holes are always normal to crankshaft axis, but at different locations along the crankshaft axis. Is there any way to select a plane which would serve as a reference plane to create multiple cross sections paralel to that plane but with offset dimension. Also, would it be possible to place the created cross sections directly below the parent view and show the cut position with a line (instead of arrows in parent view)?Thanks ahead!

I  NEED TO FLATTEN THE FLIGHT SCREW , IS THERE ANYWAY TO FLATTEN THE FLIGHT?   Updating Media  

I'm in Creo 7 & Adobe Acrobat X.  I do a Save As/Save a Copy/PDF and the PDF I get has really short dashed lines that are supposed to represent hidden lines, there not scaled to the size of the part.  This wasn't a problem in Creo 6?  Is there a solution?    

Hi Could somone please clarify as to how I can access the dimension properties. As I first go to switch realtions, and the click on the dimension, and then right click, there should be option there to access dimensions properties for me to change the parameter name but there is no option please can someone help me ?!   Note the the dimension change is in a prt.file  

I have been following the Get Started with Creo Parametric Modeling playlist to learn Creo as a SolidWorks user. The playlist was straightforward until I got to the Create Shell Features tutorial. Setting the shell thickness to 3.50 causes the feature to fail, and even setting it to 1.50 results in thin geometry being created.While I don't believe I've made an error, it's possible I overlooked something when going through the tutorials. I've attached the part file to this post (it's a Creo Versioned File, which cannot be uploaded directly to this forum). Version: Creo Parametric 8.0.4 student edition, Creo Parametric 10.0.0 student edition

How to do ultrasonic welding for two plastic parts?

I have a disc with a diameter of 120 . On the side of the disc, there are bolts arranged in an axis pattern. Currently, I use a 60-degree angle from the center to position 6 bolts around the circle. However, if I change the diameter of the disc, the number of bolts remains fixed at 6.I want to establish a relationship for the curve pattern so that as the size of the disc increases, the number of bolts can also increase in proportion to the disc size in the axis pattern. I am aware that for a straight line, one can use the 'ceil' function, but I am unsure of how to apply this to a curved surface.Please refer to the example pictures below. The last picture illustrates an increased disc size, but the number of bolts remains the same.  The last picture is the increased size but the bolt remain the same.

Initially posted in this topic   We are facing the same problem. We would like to add all bolts to ID100.. washer to ID200... nuts ID300... We are using the fix index method for this, but is there a way to do it automatically, I have created mapkey that export the table out, fire a script to create ID's , but how can i import/update the table on the drawing? 

 Hi Sdurling！ I'm very interested in learning how to create balloon symbols, but I'm not sure how to get started. Could you please provide some guidance or resources to help me understand the process better? I appreciate your assistance.
