Hi all, just read this in article CS226148, ModuleWorks will replace NCCHECK & VERICUT starting from versions below: Creo Parametric 2.0 M210Creo Parametric 3.0 M090Starting from above versions, Vericut won't be available for use anymore To perform material removal simulation, select NC sequence from model tree > RMB > Material Removal Simulation, it will access ModuleWorksThe default value of config.pro option nccheck_type is changed to moduleworksMain Reasons of the choice of ModuleWorks is that : It offers the capability to Simulate Material Removal Embedded in Creo Parametric (Only NCCHECK allowed that)It is not limited as NCCHECK was in the pastIt allows usage of OpenGL libraries used by Creo and improves by this way User Experience (possible smooth rotations of the manufacturing assembly in Creo When Material is being removed in ModuleWorks)What do you think about this ? Do you know ModuleWorks ?

Hi all, just read this in article CS226148,

ModuleWorks will replace NCCHECK & VERICUT starting from versions below:
- Creo Parametric 2.0 M210
- Creo Parametric 3.0 M090
Starting from above versions, Vericut won't be available for use anymore
- To perform material removal simulation, select NC sequence from model tree > RMB > Material Removal Simulation, it will access ModuleWorks
- The default value of config.pro option nccheck_type is changed to moduleworks
Main Reasons of the choice of ModuleWorks is that :
- It offers the capability to Simulate Material Removal Embedded in Creo Parametric (Only NCCHECK allowed that)
- It is not limited as NCCHECK was in the past
- It allows usage of OpenGL libraries used by Creo and improves by this way User Experience (possible smooth rotations of the manufacturing assembly in Creo When Material is being removed in ModuleWorks)

What do you think about this ? Do you know ModuleWorks ?

This is a drastic move on PTC's part and will effect us considerably.

Many features are not available that we rely on heavily, Z caliper, Auto diff, and remaining stock among the leaders.

Module works taking up the seat of Creo, where Vericut launched in a seperate process, concurrent design and sumulation now is not possible. WIth some of our simulations taking several hours to complete, our effeciency has taken a huge hit.

We were quoted $17,300 for one seat of stand alone vericut, and $1800 per year maintinence.

Please can anybody in the house tell me how I can get the creo parametric software. I need to install it so that I can learn how to do engineering design with it.
