Creo+ and Creo Parametric

I am using creo flow analysis (creo 11.0.4) with the base license. I would like to simulate a free standing centrifugal (radial) fan in a simple air channel. How do I simulate that?I can create a fluid volume and at the locus of the fan I create a circular interface. I can now choose "fan" for that interface and add a local function as a dp-curve. So far so good. However, creo considers that fan automatically as axial fan and, therefore, the fluid flows straight through this interface. I could add swirl (radial and tangential velocity) to the fan, but I have to add these values in m/s (and I don't know these). Furthermore, I can not select the rotation direction. I saw that alternatively I could choose "rotating wall" as boundary condition if I have a solid that represents the fan blades but I could not manage to create a fan with that. I am also not interested in the flow right through/in the fan but rather through the whole channel. What is the difference between "rotating

What option on config.pro  OR dwg.dtl controls default table text?See attachment image for proper understanding of issue/question.  Thank you! Creo is King!!!

Hi all, I have an assembly with 4 sub-assembliesUnder this 4 Subs, i have some components I would like to obtain something like this, but automated with a BOM and special Symbol in place of BOM BalloonsBut... I tried:- Nested tables- A table with several repeat regions (one by Sub-assembly)- table with model columns Without any success.How could i obtain the above result with CREO? Regards

We have an issue with a single user that is unable to send email from within Parametric 10.0.9.0. It will save as and generate files without issue but will just close out of the program entirely when it would usually be opening Outlook. It does this with all file types. Event viewer shows xtop.exe crashing but not much in the way of info. Other users can send without issue. Outlook has been repaired and stripped of add-ins to test. It is functioning fine.

The table in .drw is not updating if I change .frm save and reload. Somrthing in .drw is not updating to see latest format file. SEE IMAGE of .frm and .drwChange in .frm [B TO C]Upadte in .drw still show B

Hi,I am new to this Creo composites module, i would like to seek your help on few queries related to composites.1. While we add multiple Ply on a model, how can we change the sequence when we are trimming the ply based on my requirements. Currently the ply sequence is opposite from my expectations. Attached image for your reference.2. How do we understand what is wrong when we see the Drape status as can't able to drape in drape manager window? What should be corrected? how to analyze?3. Can we manage the length of the ply manually? likewise while we apply the first ply we should be able to manage the length or key in the length value? is this possible? ThanksNaresh

Hello, I’m having an issue in Creo Drawing:When I select a dimension and go to the Tolerance tab, all options (General, Shaft, Hole) are greyed out/uneditable.I have already enabled tolerances in the model properties.I have already retrieved ISO tolerance tables.The dimension is not a reference or driven dimension.Curiously, some drawings work fine, and their Tolerance tab is fully editable.Has anyone encountered this? How can I enable the Tolerance tab to edit tolerances in drawing dimensions?Thank you!

im a begginer and im having trouble making a cooling vent on a revolved surface ... i could just sketch the all the shape on one quarter ( mirror after ) then project it and maybe use punch or something like that to get the slots , but it seems like too much work and not really the smart thing to do , is there any other way i could do this ? not only the patterining it self is a problem but also having the pattern not cross the 120 diamter circle and the smaller circle ( the one with the hole ) , the modle comes from an exam question at the uni im learining at ... im using creo 10.9 thanks a lot

How to modify this symbol? I want to change value of  2 PL to .01 

Hello,I have a cross section of a radial pump rotor with radiuses which I want to annotate the standard way with arrow and ''R8'' written for radius of 8 mm.  I can do that to other curvatures, but not to to the surfaces made by  feature ''round'' that are made on vane endings.  I tried with ''show model annotations'' but there I can find these annotations being scattered elswhere to unwanted positions. Can not move them to cross section by ''edit attachment''. Whenever I click the curve that represents cross section of a round to insert ''dimension'' nothing happens- no dimension is written and no arrow shown. Same happens for any other similarly created rounds in this cross section. Despite round being defined as round of 8 mm, I can not measure it with ''measure'' tool. What is the way to annotate such rounds on cross sections while keeping them dependant on radius defined in ''round'' feature? Best regards!     

Hello All, I’m trying to simulate torque applied to a ¼” hexagonal driver to a reduced A/F set screw. I have set the simulation up but getting very high stresses in the results. My question is does applying the ‘total load at point’ effectively divide the moment load by 6 in this case, the point created is at the centre of the hex? Due to the stress reported I suspect I may have to divide the torque value by 6 manually when setting the load up?

Hello all! I am reverse engineering radial pump rotor. I want to achieve a constant radius between pump vane and the ''casing'' - as if it is a ''round'', that fails if I try generating because of complex edge and surfaces. So basically I am asking for help/advice/past experience with how to make complex ''round'' feature on spiral-like intersection of two curved surfaces. I did it before with ''solidify'' of created quilts -but they were uneven and hard to change if I wanted different and constant radius along the intersection.   Thank you!

Hi everyone,I’m working in Windchill with parts and drawings stored in my workspace. I’ve generated the drawing PDFs, and now I’d like to link all related information—such as design calculations, supporting documents, and relevant email correspondence—to the specific part in Windchill.The goal is to have a complete design history or data package for each part, similar to how it’s managed in Teamcenter, where all associated files and communication are traceable and connected to the part.What is the best way to achieve this in Windchill?Is there a recommended workflow or structure to ensure everything stays linked and easily accessible later?Any guidance or best practices would be greatly appreciated!Thanks,

Hi everyone,I’m working with Creo 11 and trying to use the APIs ProDrawingViewDetailCreate and ProDrawingViewPartialVisibleAreaGet, both of which require a ref_point of type ProSelection. I’m facing consistent “bad input” errors and would appreciate any guidance from someone who has successfully implemented these.Here’s what I’ve tried so far:Method 1: Programmatic datum point creationCreated a datum point → SuccessUsed ProPointInit → SuccessConverted using ProPointToGeomitem and Modelitem APIs → SuccessAttempted ProSelectionAlloc() → Failed to return a valid ProSelectionMethod 2: Manual selection approachCreated a datum pointSelected the point using ProSelection → SuccessPassed this selection to ProDrawingViewDetailCreate & ProDrawingViewPartialVisibleAreaGet → Both failed with “bad inputs”Method 3: Drawing entity approachCreated a point in the drawing using ProDtlEntityCreateUsed ProSelectionAlloc() → SuccessPassed it to ProDrawingViewDetailCreate & ProDrawingViewPartialVisib

Dear expertsI'm just frustrated about very primitive exercise in Creo Simulate 12. See the sketch below. In creo there is an assembly contains 2 composite parts, in real glued together. The cored composite board (composites 1) is bonded on composite frame L profile (composite 2). The target is to see how the rigidity of L profile affects the modal frequencies of board.Only composite quilts are supported in Simulate, it means the virtually gap is observed, the layup guilts are not in touch, bonded connection is not supported in this case. I have tested a lot of procedures, rigid link, spot weld...etc., but only bonded interface is closest to real surface - surface bonding.Another test I have made, in assembly the 3rd part - glue was created, the thickness was a gap, but there is a material interference - glue + laminate in real. Does anybody have an idea how to fix that? What is the correct connection feature between two composite parts, or generally between two shells?Thx a l

I have an assembly with two components. Every components has a simplified rep with the same name; UDSR where one feature is excluded. When I create a simplified rep in my assembly, I can select the User Defined Simplified Rep, pick UDSR,  from each component. Works perfect. Now I want to create a rule-based simrep, where every component is loaded with the user defined simrep "udsr" in it.In the rule editor, I am on the Status Tab, selecting Display. Is it possible to search for a user defined simrep with a particular name?

Hello everyone, I am working with Creo Parametric 12.4.2.0 and I want to export a .dxf file from a drawing, using:File > Save as > Export > DXF I usually use a sketch or a solid from a .prt file and place it in my drawing to do so. This works perfectly fine in Creo 3 and 6. My problem is, that whatever is contained on my drawing, gets turned into a image, when exporting it via Creo12. So if I open the .dxf file in another software, I do not have single splines or curves anymore, I have one big, very blurry, image, as seen on top here:  What have I tried:using a solid part as a baseusing a sketch as a basetrying different dxf versionsdeleting layers for the export checking unit is the same between .prt and .drw export without drawing boarderexport with drawing boarder What I found out:creating the sketch directly in the drawing file returns a clean assembly of lines - but I do not want to re-draw my designs from the .prt. So this is

Hi all,Creo+ Version - 13.1.0.1-001Windchill+ Version - 12.1.2.17 I'm trying to map attributes from Windchill+ to our start parts and then drawing templates to populate our change block. I feel like I'm probably not the first to try this and imagine there's a solution out there I just can't find. One major issue I face is that due to being on a Windchill+ system, I don't have the ability to change attributes through Type & Attribute Management without moving through PTC. If that is the only way to achieve my goal I will, but just need to know if that's my best bet. The attributes I would like to map would be :Change Notice NumberCA II DescriptionResolution DateCreated By If anyone has some information I would be grateful! Attached is image of an ECN with red outlines for the desired information to be mapped. Thanks,

Hi, I'm new to the forum. I've been using the free version of Creo Elements and I have about five files in pk2 format, one of which is important. I now have a Creo Parametric license, but I can't import pk2 files. How can I transfer the files from one software to the other? Can someone convert them for me so I can use them in Creo Parametric? Thank you very much for your help.

I am using Creo Parametric Release 12.4 and Datecode12.4.2.0Hello,in 2D drawing, I'm not longer able to fix the symbols to the dimension, but now just on the viewI remember in the old relase (9 - 10) It was possibleIs the a configuration needed or other to have the possibility?Thank's in advance

I am using Creo Parametric Release 11.0 and Datecode11.0.1.0How can we change the sequence of the ply when using trim option

I am using Creo Parametric Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.11.0Bonjour,j'ai une pièce en tôlerie avec des formes en répétition (nombreuse). Sa mise en plan est très longue à s'afficher et son exportation en STEP par exemple est très longue aussi. Pouvez-vous m'aider à comprendre le problème ?Peut-être faut-il ajouter une option au config.pro ?Merci par avance pour votre analyse.
