Q5:How to convert the "offset of line_A" into a common or normal curve like an editable freehand curve?  

I have a skeleton model. I include a tank and some 2'x4' to get a sense of how big my structure needs to be.I then use the parts from the skeleton model with the solidify feature in assembly mode to create my 2'x4' parts. I then create some copper bus bars and attach them to the top wooden beam where the cables will mount to. I want the holes in them to be aligned with the center plane of each cable. I made this part by creating part in active assembly, and activating it, and copying the geometry of the cables and the top 2'x4'. I sketched on the face of the 2'x4'. I am constrained to using 2"x8" pieces of copper as my bus bars, so I create the holes in these pieces first to be symmetric. I then activate my wooden 2'x4' at the top, and copy the geometry of these holes. I create an axis. I create a hole of the same size. I get circular references. What bad practice did I do here? I know I could make the holes in the wood piece first, and create the busbar to fit in with these holes

I am using Creo Parametric - Release 8.0 (connected) Release 8.0 and Datecode8.0.2.0One of the engineers in this group is running CFD through Creo Flow, and the systems environment variables (CFD merge quality of 10 and CFD mesh control of 0.1) no not seem to be applied properly to the model.

Q3:XZ plane is my sketch plane, How to get the“perpendicular projection point” G of point K ? I can't do that by the snap tool or project tool. (the "S" shape curve is drawn in the ZY sketch plane )  

I have a reoccuring issue I am sure there is an easy fix for but I cant find it. scenario: I create a family table of parts and create a drawing for the generic version. I then copy the drawing to a different drawing number and replace the model in the drawing using the model replace function in the menu manager. now these parts are slightly different.. may have different number of holes, etc. I do not dimension the model. I create all dimensions in the 2D drawing.when I change the notes or add / delete dimensions on the copied drawing it changes / deletes them on the generic. and vise versa. for example. a hole diameter dimension with a dimension text saying typ. 8 places on the generic drawing. change to typ. 6 places on the copied drawing. go back to the generic and the 8 places has changed to 6.. change it back to 8 and the copied drawing changes....Why are these drawings with different file names dynamically linked to each other? how do you break that link?

Hello,I noticed that when we use the function ''Merge/Inheritance'', we can activate the option ''Toggle Inheritance''. This allows to integrate the copied functions in the model tree of the part and the associativity link between the reference model and the part remains established. In case of changes in the reference model, the part can be updated with a regeneration. Unfortunately, it is only in this way. If the part is modified, the reference model will not be corrected. Are there any improvements planned in this case?Best regards.

Creo 8.0.3 Which is the right way to constrain the belt part?I need two pulleys with at least rotational dof by one.So I make the belt feature and after I can make the part.BUT the part is not constrained. So...wich is the best way to constrain it?I would to let the pulleys rotate so I cant constraint the belt directly to them.In addition I also have a warning to regenerate the model, but I don't know why.

I am working in Creo 6 with an older drawing created in Creo 3.  I have added a flatness callout as can be seen in the attached screenshot labeled "flatness_left".  Creo will not allow me to flip the flatness control frame over to the right side.  When I try to move it to the right, it only gives me a bent leader line as can be seen in the screenshot labeled "flatness_right".  Is there a way to have the flatness frame be on the right with a straight and vertical leader?

Hello,I have a problem with Creo 8.0's "Allow Assumptions" feature.In creo 2.0 when I assembled a component by defining two constraints and the "Allow Assumptions" checked, the component was fully constrained and automatically oriented itself trying to orient the default planes of the component with those of the assembly.The component was always "squared" with respect to the assembly.Now in Creo 8.0 it is still completely constrained but is not oriented "squarely" with the assembly, it remains oriented in the "dynamic" position defined during the assembly phase.In my opinion this is risky, because I could inadvertently get an unwanted orientation.Is there any way to get back the behavior that was in Creo 2.0?From your experience, do you find this modification appreciable? Like?Thanks.

Hello Experts,I was wondering if anyone has run into this issue.  When importing emn/emp files in CREO 3.0 if the "ecadname" in the ecad_hint.map is longer than 31 chars its truncating those name for the session and the resultant is that the mcadname to be used from the library is not brought into session since the ecadname truncation doesnt carry over to the emn/emp files.  This behavior didnt exist in CREO 2.0.  An SPR 5720922 has been filed but I wanted to reach out and see if anyone had this issue and found a suitable workaround.Thanks,Anil

I am using Creo Parametric Release 4.0 and DatecodeM130I have a part with flexibility (adding and suppressing some features). I want to create a drawing of the part with the different flexibility status. How can i do it? How can I represent the different flexibility status on the part (not on an assembly)?Thanks

Hello,We have been using public geometry in an assembly (creo5) for several years and in this public geometry there is a compound surface (bottle), which we use to hollow out another part (mould). The usefulness of the public geometry is that we change the bottle for another one and the mould automatically updates itself (height, diameter, etc.) to match the new bottle.However, since we have been testing Creo 8, we cannot change our bottle without causing an error: it does not replace the old compound surface with the new one.I can't attach the video to show you our problem.Maybe we did it wrong a long time ago, but that's how our files are. If we got it wrong, what should we do?I am still available to answer your questions or to send you our files.Thank you in advance for your interest in my question.(view in My Videos)

I’m hoping someone on here can give me a very descriptive setup/workflow from Schematic to Parametric on how to get the terminators to show up on a Creo Parametric drawing BOM and Pinout table. We are using an .xml to get our cable, spool, and connector information from Schematic into Parametric but are struggling to get the terminators to show up and the basic info on PTC support ( https://support.ptc.com/help/creo/creo_schem/usascii/index.html#page/Schematics_hc/About_Terminators_and_Terminator_Tables.html ) wasn’t able to get us very far. We don’t know if our Schematic setup is wrong or if it’s something on the Parametric side. We are looking for an automated solution not a manual placement one. If you do have this working, please share as much of your setup and workflow as possible this would be very very appreciated as I’m struggling to find anything about this online.  (parametric 5.0.3.0)

Hello, I'm trying to set up a non-linear buckling analysis in CREO.So far I have been successful in analyzing a cantilever steel column, but I am only able to predict elastic buckling loads.The actual buckling load needs to be obtained from a nonlinear buckling analysis, and should be smaller than the value predicted by elastic buckling analysis. Is anybody aware of a CREO tutorial so I can learn how to set up this type of nonlinear problem?  Thank you, any help it's very much appreciated

 

Hi , I want to redefine the hole feature , for this I extract the element Tree and try to add element of standard hole parameter like Hole Series and Hole Size in same , But it is nor working Can you help me to resolve the issue . Thanks & Regards,Kunal Bidkar

Hello All,Creo 4.0 M140.Considering moving our model check files to a share drive using modelcheck_dir to give us flexibility to adjust them without need to deploy new updates to users.I've seen a few topics regarding the dictionary and user_words. It seems this file will only read from the load point directory.  Can anyone confirm this is true?Anyone have success sharing a dictionary with other users? We could restrict write access in our shared drive to prevent things from getting too wild if needed of course.

I'm writing a piece of code to automate the exporting of stepfiles and I can control certain properties in the export-instructions (such as GeometryFlags)But I can't seem to find a solution to control the export status of the layers of the model.I know you can choose the export status of each layer if you manually export the model to a STEP file(Save As -> Customize Export -> Customize Layers)But is it possible to control these export statuses using code (J-Link/Toolkit)? (This piece for example exports the model as a stepfile: )GeometryFlags gf = pfcExport.GeometryFlags_Create(); gf.SetAsSolids(true); ExportInstructions ei = pfcExport.STEP3DExportInstructions_Create(AssemblyConfiguration.EXPORT_ASM_SINGLE_FILE, gf); model.Export(model.GetInstanceName(), ei); 

For design reasons, my R&D department made a chamfer on a part and then made a circle on the surface.But... modelcheck, as defined, shows us an error: Entities without surfaces likely to be buried(1)If I choose the feature in the dialog box and click "Ignore Feature", I get this message:- Ignore parameter added to feature #4909.I save, clean up my workspace, reopen the room, MC again but... the error recurs.And if I choose to skip the feature again, I get these messages:MC_BURIED_SUSPECT - parameter already exists.Ignore parameter added to feature #4909.I would like to understand where the MC_buried_suspect parameter is written, and why, my first action is not registered with my part.Could you help me?Regards

As you know scan type_2 works well in three axis surface milling, but if you turn to five axis surface milling, you will find type_2 doesn't work ,the tool doesn't go around  the islands.it will create many retracts. how to use type_2? thanks!

I am using Creo Parametric Release 5.0 and Datecode5.0.3.0In the clearance and creepage distance analysis, when there are multiple parts in the electric net, it seems that it may not be detected even though the clearance is not secured. If the clearance of other parts is shorter, it seems that it may not be detected. If it is another part, is it possible to output the result if the clearance is insufficient for each? If the detected part is corrected and recalculated, the next part will be detected, which is inefficient.   Translated with Google Translate on 28.04 by Iuliana Nuta
