Hi Siobhan,

So it is possible to create surfaces in Mathcad.

But in order for Creo to make use of them they need to be exported as 2D sections that are then used in Creo to create a surface. I posted something on this recently.

There are different methods of getting data arrays from Mathcad to Creo.

Here is a nice blog by John Sheehan talking about this subject.

As far as I'm aware there is no ability to getting Creo surfaces to Mathcad.

Thanks

Thomas

If Creo can export a surface as a set of x, y, z coordinates it would be possible to do something with that in Mathcad.
