Creo+ and Creo Parametric

hello experts I have a question in creo BOM How can we add the length, width, and height of the workpiece of the finished part? without adding the parameters every time in a new part file. regards Fisa

I am using Creo Parametric Release 6.0 and Datecode6.0.5.1I have a development made with Java Toolkit (Jlink) I have tested it on my computer and on some of my coworkers, the installation has gone without problems in all of them.When I install it on a user's computer it gives me an error, a message appears that the application could not be initialized, I tried it with several users and the same thing happened.I have tried and reviewed all the points that appear in the article in PTC Support (CS26558), and it remains the same.From here I don't know how to proceed or what to look at and check, is there something else that could be causing the application not to initialize? Is there any way to do a debbug or get a log to see what is happening?I have not found any file that can explain what is happening.Thank you so much

is there any way to add flexible model > varied items into the family table as we do for Dimensions & Parameters  ? Refer uploaded pics.  

Hello, I am trying to create this handle in Creo v.9.  My plan was to do the "bend" as a sweep. However I can not manage to do this. I have created a sketch with the outer countor, as you see on my picture below. But what I need help with is which sweep to use and how to create the right cross section at the right point ( the green part in the drawing). I will also upload the part-file.      

Hi I'm trying to streamline design without skeletons or notebooks.I've been using relations referencing the GA. Ex: WO_NUM = WO_NUM:1DIA = DIA:1The :1 calls up parameter of session ID 1I found out that model intent > program can do the same thing with more steps. Is there a reason to use program instead.Do you have any ways to basically do top down design without access to skeletons or notebooks?  

Hi all, I have an assy of a electonic board, received from a supplier, with a lot of component that i know only the mass but not the other value like density.If I try to change "define properties by" to fully assinged and write the value in the mass field and click OK, it will apear a message "Uncorrect Value".The sistem wants all the parameter like density, area, inertia and COG. There is a way to force only the mass value? Thanks  

Hello,I experienced the following unexplained error. I have a drawing of a part with holes, and when I want to put a note with a leader or create a dimension by selecting the hole axis as the reference, the program gives a fatal errorMoreover, if you make a new hole in this model and select its axis as references, everything works I think the solution to my question is here (CS273123), but I don't have a valid subscription (Creo 5.0.4.0)    

Hi there, How can i count the hols in a part and make a parameter with the result?

Hi all,We use Creo Parametrics 8.0, create MBD in 3D. Creating Combined States later used for 2D drafting views. If I create Dimensions and Annotations in the 3D model, they remain invisible for the part covered by volume. Example:highlighted Annotationsnot highlighted Annotations Does anybody know, whether the visibility of the Annotations can be forced? Thank's for help!  

Hello Could you please help me with the issue below ? When I create a new setting in a material inside CREO data base (for example, norm_material), I incorporate the setting into the material in order to it see in the part list on the drawing.  For that I use the following formula : norm = norm : MTRL_XX (XX means increment). The issue here is : It does not work because of the increment. I don't want to add the norm manualy on each part, I want the material to  add automatically the norm from the materail setting into the part list instead. Like that i can change the part material and the linked norm follow with. Looking forward for your return.Thanks in advance Kind regards,

Since the release of Creo+ and the PTC Admin Center I've been playing around and exploring the possibilities of the platform.One thing I can't seem to get a grasp of is the purpose of the Groups inside the PTC Admin Center.So far, you can create, edit and delete groups and add/remove people to a group but it seems like there is no functionality linked to these self-created groups outside of the Groups tab. I tried searching the help centers and documentation and I only found a page explaining how to add/edit/delete groups but it doens't explain what you can do with Groups in the Creo+ Portal or the PTC Admin Center:https://support.ptc.com/help/ptc_saas/admin/en/index.html#page/admin/Create_Groups.html#

First I imported some dentures I found on google and used view>images>import to place it on a plane. Then I scaled it according to an 8mm diameter hole for a tooth. I traced it by creating a sketch roughly in this shape and extruded it as a body. Then I created an offset curve and put 8mm circles along it spaced out. This allowed me to extrude the holes for magnets. I mirrored the entire body on a plane at 30mm which gave me the ability to create the hinge and stop in context. I merged all the bodies and split them along a hinge cut away. An auto round on all bodies and it looked good enough to print. I exported each body as a part and printed in ASA red. It was fun and multi-body changed the way I design. Download here:

I use Creo Parametric 7.0.8.0.I have a problem with EZ Tolerance extension, my problem is described bellow.  I was using set of a shaft and a bearring with a hole, firstly I calculated it by hand ańd then with EZ Tol., but the results were not same.Here are my calculations:1. Nominal ClearenceHole-Shaft=(0.3760-0.3745)/2= 0.00075 mm2. Maximal clearence3. Minimal clearence EZ Tol did the Nominal clearence good, but not the min/max clearence. (I attached some pictures with the assembly). Thank you.  

Hello all, I am having some variability and issues with how Creo flow (7.0.8) behaves when trying to display outputs. This leads to three questions which would be great to understand. I guess the answers are in the config files, but can't seem to find the right parameters. 1. Transparency of a solid domain (showing temperature) used to also allow visibility to streamlines within the part. However, now for whatever reason it doesn't allow this. How can I get this ability back again? 2. Is there a way to change the outline colour from the very thick blue lines? They currently wipe out all detail with fine PCB components. Ideally 1 px and black. 3. At one point my model decided to show its own outlines, as 1px and grey. These weren't turned on as outlines, but were something to do with the 'flow analysis bodies' turned on. If I can get these to show then it will solve problem #2! Many thanks

Hello I am some problem with the default coordinate system. I am using student editionIn part designI want to interchange Axis is such a way that my XY plane which is Front view by default to Top view by default and vice versa.But I am unable to change orientating in edit definition   

Hi All,  Does anyone use dependent sketches with options to vary? We do often and the child sketches are automatically renamed when the parent is updated.  Take a look here and let me know your thoughts. Please upvote if you have struggled with this.  https://community.ptc.com/t5/Creo-Parametric-Ideas/Dependent-Sketches-with-Varied-Items-Name-Override/idi-p/899461 Thanks! 

I am using Creo Parametric Release 5.0 and Datecode5.0.0.0We used Core 5.0 to draw 3D model drawings, and found that the CORE was quite sluggish during use, especially during cutting and measurement, with the image size around 1.5G. After investigation, it was found that Core 5.0 only uses a single CPU core, and our computer's main frequency is I5-12400F. We hope that the Core can use multiple cores for calculation. Can you provide a solution or do software versions need to be upgraded?Here are the errors that I facedno

Good morning, Currently, in our CREO setup, a user has the ability to open an assembly that has components that have failed placement. He can work quietly, make backups, etc.  I would like to know if there is an option that: - forces a designer to correct the placement of a component when opening - or prevent the saving of the assembly if the placement of a component is failed.  In the past (in creo 2 and 3), CREO "forced" us to correct the placement of a component when opening an asm, and the CAD administrators have changed, this obligation has disappeared and currently we are thinking about restore this option. However, I didn't find what I was looking for in the assembly configuration options. Could you help me?Regards

hi All since eastern, we are using creo 7.unfortunately, we have huge performance issues on bigger assemblies.we already checked config option, graphic card settings etc. but nothing seems to work. some basic features or working steps take up to 10 min (copy paste a part, start the measuring feature, simply rotate the model). does anyone have experience with similar problems or knows some settings/requirements which need to be done on hardware side? we are working on windows 10 laptops, 32GB RAM, 4GB Graphic card RAM GDDR5 or GDDR6 thanks in advance.   

I am using Creo Parametric Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.0.0I've just dug out on old, legacy (10 years) creo parametric file and opened in Parametric 9. When I look under View->Saved Orientations I don't get the standard lists of Front, Back, Top etc (see screenshot above). Do I need to somehow convert to latest Creo version to recover that, or is there something else I should do? Or do I need to start again? Under File I do not see File>Import.

Does anyone know why a simulation would run past the iteration limit? I had a run going yesterday set to the default 500 limit, and I didn't realize it ran right past it. I manually stopped it at the 516th iteration. I double checked and the limit was set correctly, so what could have caused that? Thanks!

I have a robot leg CAD and I need to run FEA on several key poses. Now I have these key poses stored in 'drag component' as different Snapshots (see picture below). And I have Simp Rep that hides all the non-structural components. However when I open Simulate, the model always seem to go to the default pose ('neutral_pose'). Any idea how to simulate diffrent poses?  

I have a Creo assembly (saved as from another assembly) that, when I go to open in Creo, crashes the session. I provided PTC Tech Support with the assembly and they can't replicate the crash - i.e. it opens fine on their end. It doesn't open on any of the systems we have. I can only open the model if I select "Open Subset" and then activate the Master Rep from within there. But if I forget and from Windchill select "Open In Creo", it crashes Creo. The same crash happens if I export the files to the C:\ drive and open from there so it isn't Windchill related.  Creo writes a handful of files in addition to the traceback.log to the start directory. And it's been writing a Creo file in there that doesn't open in Creo ("Cannot retrieve file" says the error when I tried). That Creo file is explicitly called out in the std.out file:Is there a way to find out what the file is in real life? Does anyone have any other troubleshooting exercises or codes to decipher the tr

I am using Creo Parametric Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.5.0I want to do structural analysis for an simple cantilever beam with varying force data from csv file can we do that in creo with its stimulaion

In Creo  Simulate, is there a method to define a rotary joint between two components in a four-bar linkage mechanism? Will apply constraints such that the assembly is fully constrained. I've tried the 'pin' joint, but it's wrt the world, not between two parts. I've also tried 'displacement' with a body-attached cylindrical csys, but no luck. 'Contact' option also doesn't work. The rotary joint seems to be a pretty basic function in FEM/FEA, am I missing anything?
