Creo Modeling Questions

Last week, a customer was concerned about the singularity warning that Creo Simulate sometimes prints near the end of the summary file.The key phrase of this warning message is “use engineering judgment”. This blog post describes what may happen if you don’t, and along the way discusses some subtle aspects of isolate for exclusion AutoGEM controls.The customer’s model looks like this.Running the analysis results in the following stress results:These results look OK, but the customer was concerned because Simulate warned that the max_stress_vm measure occurred near a singularity. In fact, the high stress is at a singularity, but not at the singularity that Simulate automatically identified. Simulate identifies only certain types of singularities, such as point loads, point constraints and reentrant corners.   In these cases, Simulate is very conservative in terms of what measures are identified as occurring near a singularity. Any measure result that occurs within an element t

I just started using Creo2 about a month ago and I'm having an issue with the no hidden view. For some reason, I am seeing the outlines of threaded holes in my no hidden view. The lines are purple. I have a couple of other parts that I have imported as an .igs file and they are acting similarly. Does anyone know what the problem might be. I don't want to see the outline of threaded holes in my no hidden view.Any help would be greatluy appreciated.August

Hello!I would like to know how can I create 8 nodes and 16 nodes element in meshing. under "control mesh" I have searched but I could not find anything like that, so can anyone help me with this? Thank you in advance.Regards,Chakkarabani

hi guys,can anyone tell me if there is a way to get around this issue im having because its driving me nuts,ok so it should be simple. I’ve got a spacing of 120 with a 8mm gap between them, (these are constant)there are 2 triangles in the bottom and top, all i want to do is make an equals constraint that states that 29.3 and 27.2 are in actual act the same number, I don’t even care what that number is, Yes I know I can: * draw line perpendicular to the inclined line from one corner *draw a parallel line from the adjacent corner, *sketch a reference line find the centre point, *draw a perpendicular line and then *set up a symmetrical constraint Blah Blah Blah, Or i could go into relations *make some trig calcs*set up a relation that equals half of the hypotenuse and *define a centre line *and offset the bars from there. But that all takes way longer than something that should be so simple, and as we all know time is money. so anyone got an idea?

For over a year, I didn't know about the community help board. This is the place where you can address question about the functionallity of the community website. I posted a product suggestion for the community board to change the "NEED HELP?" in the top right corner of the website so it would read "Community Help". I know that I had clicked on the link when I was a newbie looking for Creo/Pro help and got frustrated. Here is that product idea:http://communities.ptc.com/ideas/2998Thanks, Dale

I selected two dims and made them aligned.[cid:image001.png@01CE8DFF.CC900310]I then drag selected both, and selected between the arrows on the right dim and dragged them up and down.[cid:image002.png@01CE8DFF.CC900310]As you can see, they are no longer aligned.Creo 2.0-m060. This didn't happen in WF4, they would stay aligned when you moved them.David HaighPhone: 925-424-3931Fax: 925-423-7496Lawrence Livermore National Lab7000 East Ave, L-362Livermore, CA 94550

Ciao! Qualcuno saprebbe spiegarmi esattamente come si fa a farsi dire da Creo il momento d'inerzia di una sezione di un modello? Ho provato con "proprietà massa" ma mi dà solo i momenti principali di tutto il pezzo.Grazie in anticipo!

Does anyone know if there is an option to change the default setting for a clearance hole within Creo 2.0?Currently the default is a close fit, but a majority of the time we use a Free Fit. Is there a way to have the hole creation default to a Free Fit instead of the Close Fit?Any information would help.

I have a rather large model that fails regen when I put in a 0.25-20 bolt. If I change the relative accuracy Creo shuts down. Any ideas??Mike

can we use position servo motors for dynamic anlysis? If not why?

Guten Tag,ich möchte einen Volumenkörper entlang einer Ebene zerschneiten und die beiden Hälften als neue, eigene Bauteile nutzen. Bin noch Anfänger.mfg. Bernhard

Bundle windchill with MS Task Manager, because I have to leave the TM up the whole time I run windchill because it saves me time every time I have to kill the process......

Gute Tag,seit kurzem hab ich Creo Parametric 2.0 als Trial-Version. Eine Schulung für 1.0 hatte ich zwar, das ist aber schon etwas her und ich hab noch nicht so viel Routine.Daher meine Anfänger-Frage:Ich hab eine Baugruppe aus drei Bauteilen und möchte jetzt ein Gehäuse drum herum bauen, welches natürlich von der Baugruppe abhängig sein soll.Ich stell mir das so vor, dass ich direkt in der Baugruppe eine Skizze anfange, extrudiere und eine Schale draus mach. Wie geht das? Wonach muss ich suchen. Ein Stups in die richtige Richtung reicht mir schon.mfg. Bernhard

When you write a parameter in a text string, &parameter_name, is there a when to let the text know that the parameter is done other than a space? i.e. &parameter_name_COLOR where Parameter_name is the name of the parameter and _COLOR is attached to the end (without a space between them).Thanks, Dale

Can CREO 2 be installed in a folder of my own choosing on a different drive (e.g. D)?Barry SchaefferFluke

Hi All!Just wondering if any of you made a software maintenance reneal process a bit more effective.I have to deal with multiple vendors and VARs outside of the company and multiple group and department heads inside - I am sure many of you do the same. I would like to ask if any of you are using special tools for this and/or making use of PLM to rout it thru?Share your ideas please.Thank you,D

Why is it when you save as a zip file, the drw files are not included?Since they are linked to the prt files, I believe they should be included.

Can anyone tell me the right way to enter the elastoplasic properties of a material in Creo/WF 5.0? I have the true stress/strain curve entered. With the "Use best fit coefficients checkmarked the curves look good. However the Tensile Yield stress is at 0. If I try to hit ok it doesn't let me. It says I must have a value greater than 0. If I uncheck the box and put in the correct value the curve shifts way up. Any thoughts?

I've been struggling to find a solution for the following problem:After using Creo for a while, I do some routine tasks in the embedded browser (sync, update), then hit refresh and the browser just hangs. I can still check-in & check-out models within Creo, but WC via the embedded browser is unusable until I quit and restart.I'm using M050 and WC 10.0, however, I've tried different build codes and gotten the same result. Several of my coworkers are having similar problems. Anyone else seeing this? Any solution to be found?

Hi,Knew how to do this in ProE but I cant find it anymore: an option to disable sketch contstraints so I can sketch "freely". I dont mean hiding the constraints, but the option to disable snapping/aligning to other lines (and I know you can press rmb a few time to get it done in the end..).Please let me know!

Hi everyone,Is there an existing option for disable the automatic calculation of area and perimeter ? Because, the calculus is too long and loose my time each time.The Calculus of area and perimeter should be an option.Thanks,

Can you guys help verify whether or not Ihave gone crazy?In Creo2 I am trying to measuredistance from one vertex to another vertex of asame planar spline.In other words, the two ends of a squiggly curve.The message I get back is "This measurement cannot be performed for the given set of references" Huh?I can get a measurement from one end verex to the CSYS but not from end to end. My curve is located and dimensioned with Strong dims so it's located in space.weird stuff this morning.

I have been out of the saddle for a while but am jumping back in headlong into Creo 2.0. I can't find out to do a 2 projection curve. Are these still available in Creo 2.0?Thanks in advance.

Hey guys if I want to download 3D Software how does it work? Is it free to all that is a member? I have register with my email etc.
