Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Our corporate IT folks have recently "flagged" our installation of FlexLM as being out of date and asked that it be updated (from 11.14 to the latest 11.16 version). I've got the permissions necessary on the network server to let me do this, but just wondered if anyone has any advice about the smartest way to do it. Things I'm concerned about: (1) Do I need to generate a new license file for our particular Creo 4.0 modules? Or will the license file currently installed be okay? (2) Is it possible to do an actual "upgrade", or do I need to uninstall the old version and then install the new one? I've never upgraded a license server before - always was in the situation of the server failing or changing and needing to do a fresh install with new NIC information, etc. Are there any other potential problems that I should prepare for? One would think that an update would be similar to other programs where it's just a quick process, but FlexLM is not like other software, is it. Thanks for any h

Hi, exist a setup for the module works on tool quality? I don't know what I did but now I find myself with a difference on the quality of the tool while it is simulating with MODULE WORKS.   See attached photos      

hey guysI have a drawing of using a dxf file, I change the line style width to 1.000 from 0.000, the line gets wider in the drawing and its what I want but when I print the dxf its thin just like the rest of the lines.below is what I want and then what I get after creating a pdf.any help will be appreciated, and thanks in advanceCarlos

Hello   I have many doubts about the .hol file that I cannot understand.How is the depth of the thread or hole calculated? In the .hol file, the depth of the drill or thread is not specified but the difference is calculated using DEPTH_RATIO, who defines the value? Thanks

Hi, I have a very large manufacturing file and when I want to work in the pro/program it takes a long time to open. I use notepad++ to read the file. What can I do to reduce the file opening time? Thanks

First, let me start by saying that I am new to Cabling and have only been using it for about a week. I am trying to route wires to and from a connector as shown in the image below. I have no issue routing along path A, but I can't figure out how to make it route along path B. My assumption is that it can't make the transition between the two branches because they are both tangent to the main branch (where path A begins). I looked through the help file and found a reference for fixing this issue by creating a "T-branch", but I have found no other references anywhere online for making this "T-branch".   I am sure this is a simple issue, so I would appreciate it if someone could get me pointed in the right direction.

I recently loaded Creo 6 (6.0.6.0).  In my office, I have my laptop screen extended to my 2nd monitor, Creo will not launch.  If I 'project PS screen only' everything works fine.  As long as the program is open I can extend to both screens.  I do not have this problem with my home setup.  I believe the extra monitors are the same make and model, so it seems unlikely that it is graphics card related. I did not have this problem with Creo 4.   Any thoughts?   Mike    

I could not find a better place to put this question - if it is the wrong place please move my post or tell me where to put it. I am running Intralink 3.4 on Windows Server 2003 and Wildfire 3 on a new Windows 10 Pro system. WF 3 was previously running on a Windows 7 computer. After moving to the W10 computer I had a number of problems but they were solved and I thought all was fine. I now find that I cannot check-in items from my Workspace to my Commonspace. Everything else works perfectly normal, I can open, create and delete Workspaces, I can update workspace files from Commonspace but I cannot check-in new or modified files. I get an error message "Pro/INTRALINK has detected an internal error. Please contact ..." Since the only thing not working is the check-in I am hoping it is a port-number or firewall conflict. Any idea anybody?

I am using Creo Parametric 7.0 7.0.0.0I'm using the Creo Parametric TOOLKIT to create Creo Simulate Geometry. My model has 2 overlapping parts that I want to get the non-manifold representation for. However in one area of the model, the geometry from the overlapping faces is not imprinted onto each face. Instead the imprint geometry is represented as individual ProMechEdges that are associated with the correct ProMechSurface but not used by any ProMechContour on that surface. Other areas of my model produce the correct non-manifold representation. What causes the ProMechModel to create wires edges instead of imprinting the edges into the face?Thank you.

Hi, I'm starting to learn more about Mbd. I found this video where shows some relationship between SOLIDWORKS and Cam works.   https://youtu.be/aw9ntdXpbbY   I would like to find some information regarding CREO manufacturing and Mbd. Any suggestion?

Hi All, Is there anyone who managed to run Creo Simulation live in a virtualized environment with an Nvdia Grid card? Yet CREO detect the graphics card ! But when I run the simulation CREO crash !   Thank you for your help   Pascal

I am using Creo Simulate 2.0 M160 After creating a shell pair with the prt file inside the analysis target and confirming that the mesh was created correctly with AutoGEM, When AutoGEM is executed on the asm file to be analyzed, AutoGEM is interrupted with the error "The shell pair may not be defined correctly".   Here are the errors that I faced : The shell pair may not be defined correctly    

In structural analysis (strength analysis) for resin parts, is it available to set anisotropic mechanical properties such as elastic modulus, tensile strength or coefficient of linear expansion etc, in consideration of the flow direction and the perpendicular direction of the result of mold analysis?

Hello All, I have been working with Creo since Pro/Engineer 2001.  Currently we are still running Creo 3.0 but have purchased a new Sodick Wire EDM.  Realizing it was time for a  CAM package, I decided to stick with PTC and add Production Machining Seat.  I am running into some very basic issues being that there is very little documentation or tutorials available on this subject.  The workflow is so far, incomprehensible to me.  I have no clue how to get started, what is necessary to configure and what is not.  There also seem to be only 3 options for machines in the post processor.  I have never written a post and have no clue what is involved.  I have not been successful in finding anyone that offers training in the manufacturing extension.  I would greatly appreciate if anyone can help me get started specifically with Wire EDM functions.  Thanks in advance, Chris.

I have a fairing model for a mini car I'm trying to make a mould of (something along the lines of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAinuf5I_dw; I need sections of "inside" the fairing as the one in 00:00:15), and the thing is I only have it on stl format. To make matters worse, the mesh seems to have some... problems, as in intersecting itself in sharp turns.I've already tried shrinkwrap, but even at "10" in level of detail it isn't good enough for the mould purpose. What I need the fairing as a solid for is so that I can extrude an object until it hits the fairing's inside face. What I would like to know is: is there a way of getting better results than "10" in shrinkwrap? Or maybe there's a way of extruding up until the fairing without it being a solid part. Thanks in advance. P.S.: I've already read the forums (for example https://community.ptc.com/t5/3D-Part-Assembly-Design/Converting-STL-to-prt/m-p/365736#M8041 seems close enough, but there seems to be no solution) and found about

We turned ModelCheck on back in July. Since then a couple of the designers have reported that when the reopen an assembly the next day or later, the changes they saved have not been saved. I turned it off for the past 10 days and one user reported no issues with ModelCheck turned off. We are not preventing check-in to WIndchill for errors, everything that would be an error is right now only being flagged as a warning. We do know that ModelCheck slows down the check-in process. I had to block 4 files from running ModelCheck as it was taking over an hour to process the drawing on check-in. I have cautioned the users to watch the rolling arrows at the bottom of the screen and not close their part or Creo while the arrows are rolling.  Is there anything else to set or check in ModelCheck, Creo or Windchill that will prevent lost work? We are on WIndchill 11.0 M030 CPS16 with Creo 4 M080. I can move to M150 if that might help. I am working on a total upgrade to Windchill 11.1 M020 and
