Question

STP/IGS Viewer?

All -


I have a user doing an offsite presentation in a few days, and we are looking for a (preferably free) model viewer so he doesn't have to deal with our VPN or logging in to Creo. I did a quick search here and see several older posts for products from eDrawings, Kubotek and Delcam - is there anything new and exciting that we should look at as well?


Thanks in advance -

    Creo View Express is free.

    Thanks, Tom and Steve -

    I didn't realize you could use the CreoView products independent from Creo and/or Windchill. This is perfect!

    Chrystal,

    Just be sure to check the matrix that Tom linked to. The free version has some limitations (last I knew) with what file types it can open. I believe one of either IGS or STP required an up-option, paid version. It's a good tool to work with if that limitation isn't an issue.

    Good point - I noticed that on the matrix; so we did try opening a .asm file, and it did just what we needed.

    Thanks again, everyone!

    Hello,


    Erik is right. There are some limitations. Here's how you can use Creo View to import STP and IGS files.


    STP files - Imported in Creo View Lite and Creo View MCAD


    IGS files - Imported in Creo VIew MCAD only


    Hope this helps.
