PTC In The Automotive Field

[bduncan]

Does anyone who knows PTC applications in the automotive field?

[srieger]

Yes, I'm in the automotive field. Mostly chassis, drivetrain components and suspensions for racing and aftermarket.

Kenworth and Peterbilt both use Pro/E. DANA, RedDot and other companies that deal with PACCAR also use Pro/E.

I have a small aftermarket automotive parts business. I use Pro/E.

toyota ,volvo,caterpillar uses PROE for POWERTRAIN DESIGN AND SYNTHESIS and catia for car body design

Hi ,Bhargava I have not found material in Pro/E directly on advanced auto surfacing because it involves lot of tricks/experience (washout fillet,3d curve etc..)

the E learning library of Pro/E is good but few things of automotive surfacing is mentioned in book Solidworks surfacing and complex shape modeling Bible by matt lombard (wiley publishers)
