PTC Education

Helloi am a manufacturing engineering student at the university of Nottingham and i am investigating the generation of generating lattice structures (to be later additively manufactured) using CAD (which is Pro-E Wildfire 4.0 in our university) but i couldn't find any tutorials or videos or articles that relates or help.I kindly ask you to provide me with any helpful information in this area please.Thank you

I installed ProE 5 Student Edition from my school back in August. From what I remember, it worked fine then. I recently tried to use it for a class but it would not open at all. There was no error message or splash screen. When I open it on my desktop, it will show the mouse as "busy" and then open, but on my laptop, I click the icon (or the start menu, or even the exe in the program files) and it flickers to busy but immediately stops.I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling many times. I've copied over the files from my desktop with no results. I've cleaned out the temp folders and fixed my registry with CCleaner (nothing ptc or proe related though). I've tried updating my video drivers and even adding that line to disable them in config.pro. Nothing has worked. It doesn't even start up in safe mode either.What is wrong and how can I fix it. All and any help is greatly appreciated!Thanks,Ross

Hi I'd like to upgarde from Creo 2.0 M010 to release M020 - ho do I go about doing this?In anticipationThanksPaul Spencer

In this session of the ROBOTALK webcast series, we cover all the basic features and capabilites of Windchill for FIRST teams. This includes working with online folders and documents, viewing online content with Creo View and getting information and understanding the status of online content in Windchill.     (view in My Videos)

The Game Ring It Up! is played on a 12’x12’ diamond shaped field. Two alliances comprised of two teams each, compete in matches consisting of a 30 second autonomous period followed by a two-minute driver controlled period.   The object of the game is to score more points than your opponent’s alliance by placing plastic rings onto pegs on the center rack. Teams will also be challenged to detect special “weighted” rings to earn a special multiplier bonus.     (view in My Videos)

In this session of the ROBOTALK webcast series, we cover all the basic getting started with Windchill topics. This includes registering for a Windchill project, creating a PTC account, inviting people to your Windchill project and managing your Windchill project team.     (view in My Videos)

Please i need someone to help me resolve this issue. I have been trying to install creo 2 in my laptop but i keep encountering thesame problem. In the course of my installation when i enter the product code and click install licensing i get an error message. what might be wrong? My operating system is windows 7.

Is there a place to get templates for Pro E 5.0?Also where at in the file (directory) are the current templates?I'm using the student version of Pro E, and my univeristy has the bigger version. We use Pro E 5.0.-Ashley W

Does anyone use RWDC as curriculum for a stand alone high school course? I am exploring the idea of using this competition as a STEM course for students interested in engineering, CAD and the design process.

I finally have processed the video recording from the ROBOTALK on October 24 into several parts. Here is the first part about simulating using PTC's Creo Parametric. Video Link : 3508 The topic of creating simulations of the real world, particulalry with respect to your robot is one of the main advantages to building a complete model of your robot in Creo. There are many different kinds of simulations that you can do and this is the first part of the ROBOTALK session that discussed this important topic.

Hello,I need to create an A1 format. Is there any tutorial or step by step guide for this?Is it possible to import an A1 autoCAD border into the format?Any help is appreciatedThanks

Hi All anyone come across a greyed out Product code box during the install. Resulting in being unable tyo enter a product code and continue with installation. Is it a windows firewall issue or my doggy install disk.Simon

Hi folks,I'm looking for recommendations for managing installations of Creo 2 at a school site. Typically, machines are refreshed with a standard image and PC's are updated on an as-needed basis.What is the simplest way of managing a site install of Creo 2 with images like this?Two scenarios I can think of:1. Site license for schools edition on a local server -Create an installation pointing to a server with fully qualified name2. Installation tied to MAC address -I don't know how one could effectively push this out in an automated wayThanks,Josh

THe last part of the ROBOTALK session on simulation is now available. Please take a look at all four of the videos. This is a very nice overview of the simulation capabilities available in PTC's Creo Parametric. Video Link : 3516

This is the final part in a four part series of videos from the October 24 ROBOTALK session on simulation.     (view in My Videos)

Here is the video for the third part of the OCtober 24 session of ROBOTALK that discusses simulation. This video covers many of the features of the mechanism simulation capability in PTC's Creo Parametric. Video Link : 3513 This video covers the creation of the chain feature using a user defined function.

This is the third part in a series of videos created from the ROBOTALK session of October 24 regarding simulation.   (view in My Videos)

Here is the second part of the ROBOTALK session that was held on October 24 about simulation. Video Link : 3511 This part of the session focuses on different simulations to demonstrate the capabilities of PTC's Creo Parametric.

All,I've recently installed the student version of Creo 2.0 M020. For the first few days everything worked as planned, but now I am unable to launch the application because of error 0x0000005: "Creo Parametric is shutting down because it could not run the Quality Agent, which is required in this edition."I have tried uninstalling and reconfiguring the software multiple times, with the same results. Initially I thought the problem arose because the Quality Agent was being installed in the wrong directory (C:/Program Files (x86)), but I have tried unsuccessfully in multiple locations. I am able to run the Quality Agent, although nothing happens when I try to send a report. I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit, and I currently have Pro/E Wildfire 5.0 installed on the same machine. Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?
