Creo

Creo: Design. The way it should be.

Imagine, design, create, and innovate your products better with Creo, 3D CAD/CAM/CAE software, and solutions for product design and development.

Creo

What is Creo?

Creo is the 3D CAD solution that helps you accelerate product innovation so you can build better products faster. Easy-to-learn Creo seamlessly takes you from the earliest phases of product design to manufacturing and beyond.

You can combine powerful, proven functionality with new technologies such as generative design, augmented reality, real-time simulation, additive manufacturing. and the IoT to iterate faster, reduce costs, and improve product quality. The world of product development moves quickly, and only Creo delivers the transformative tools you need to build competitive advantage and gain market share.

New in Creo 9

Creo 9 is full of productivity and usability enhancements to help you deliver your best designs in less time. There are new tools for managing, manipulating and understanding CAD models. Creo 9 continues to enhance tools for ergonomics, Model-Based Definition (MBD), simulation, generative design, and additive / subtractive manufacturing.

Usability and productivity

New customer-driven usability and productivity enhancements will help streamline your daily work. Model tree management has never been easier, and a new divided surfaces function allows for even better analysis and definition. Sketcher, multibody, Freestyle and ECAD have all been improved to simplify and speed up your everyday work.

Model-based definition (MBD) and detailing improvements

Enhanced digital product definition tools help you advance your MBD and detailing activities. Semantic PMI and symbols are compliant with the latest ASME/ISO standards, providing more information for downstream users. New weld symbols and drawing hatch patterns make detailing easier. These powerful MBD tools help you provide greater clarity with less effort.

Ergonomic design, Manikin, and vision

Your team will appreciate the enhancements to ergonomics design and vision analysis tools. Now you can customize Manikin dimensions, with easier manipulation of Manikin position. There are even new tools available to analyze Manikin sight and field of view. These customer-driven enhancements make it easy for you deliver better product solutions.

Enhancements to simulation and generative design

Improve your products with enhanced simulation and generative design tools. Creo Simulation Live adds multi-physics analysis, so you can simulate structural and thermal performance simultaneously. Creo Ansys Simulation and Creo Flow Analysis are more powerful and easier to use. And you can now use generative design with safety factor and modal optimization, to achieve the desired frequency response of the specified material.

Advances in additive and subtractive manufacturing

There are valuable CAM improvements, for both additive and traditional manufacturing. In additive manufacturing, you will find improvements to stochastic and user-defined lattices as well as support structures. Updates to subtractive manufacturing include enhancements in 5-axis finishing toolpaths, turning, and mold development, as well as adaptive feed rates for milling. These improvements make it easier for you to deliver high-quality, manufacturable products.
