PTC Education

PTC recently added a Creo 2 tutorial for teams entering the F1 in Schools competition.A zip with software tutorial and Creo 2 models can be downloaded from the resources section of www.ptcschools.com

Every time I try to open Creo, a text box pops up telling me that creo will close because it couldn't run the "Quality Agent" and it is required to do so. I am told to report error code 0xc6000005.I have never had any issue running Creo before.

Problem Outline:This problem is charactized by an error message that opens up after PTC Creo 2.0 has fully loaded. The error message apepars in a Creo window titled "Message" and Creo closes upon clicking "OK". There are several variations of this error message with seperate error numbers. An example of one possible message is shown below.Solution:This error is caused because Creo 2.0 cannot communicate with the "Quality Agent". The Quality Agent is an extension of the Student and Academic editions fo Creo which helps us improve later versions. Currently we have created a fix for this problem that we can put into place for you. To get in contact with us please submit a support request from the form below.Submit a Support Request

Does anyone know if there is any Creo Simulate workshop that covers advance topics such as contact, thread, or bearing in US? I believe there is a similar workshop in Europe.

If anyone could help with the following problem that would be much appreciated, I have downloaed the exectutable for the PTC Creo trial version but cannot proceeed past the follwing screen (see attached screen shot) where it lists Application Selection ? Any idea on how to fix this ?

based on the title, my copy of student edition couldn't run creo parametric because it could not run quality agent. any suggestion?

I'm currently switching over to Creo Parametrics Academic version with the goal of designing a frame for SAE Baja. I want to do a FEA of the final design in order to take off members of the frame that aren't necesary to make it lighter. Before I dedicate the time on designing the frame I want to do an FEA of the main hoop to make sure I know what I'm doing and can't seem to find any resources of what I need. Do I have to tell it to weld the joints? How do choose the metal for the material? How do I make custom OD's and wall thickness on AFX? How do I get FEA to work on Creo Parametric? Help on any of these questions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

New to PTC/Creo. We will start up a new course in CAD next fall. Have installed and gone through a few tutorials in Ptc/Creo. However, I haven't found a simple outline of curriculum anywhere. With all the available tutorials and projects, it's hard to know where to start and how to build the knowledge forward. My students will start out without any knowledge of CAD. The goal is to turn them into productive designers in about 4 months time. And most important, maintain their interest throughout the process. Anyone who has worked with this product on the High School level who is willing to share a simple curriculum map outline? Thanks?
