Definition:

• A process of joining materials to make physical objects from 3D CAD model, usually layer upon layer, as opposed to subtractive manufacturing or molding/casting technologies.

PTC CREO SIMULATE ROADMAP WHAT IS ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING/3D PRINTING?

The 3rd Industrial Revolution


7

• Create light weight designs without compromising stress and displacement requirements

– Integrated design-analysis process cycle

• Simulate using additive manufacturing material properties

• Simplify assemblies – Part consolidation, more functions in each part

• Design to have self-supporting geometries – Or minimize supports

• Apply conformal channels/pipes/routing

• …

• Biomimetics

analysis


Analysis Node in Model Tree Enhancements

Reduce menu and picks to create, run or review an analysis


15

• Relocate tolerance details when in Creo Simulate to avoid

overlapping with Simulate Csys

– Located tolerance to the left of the Csys while in

Creo Simulate

– Move tolerance back to the right corner when in

Creo Parametric


Current Display

Updated Display

Graphic Display Improvements

18


Data Simplification Improvements

Explore additional design scenarios easily based on found results

• Access to Flexible Modeling tools within Creo Simulate

– Requires an active license of FMX

– As a Simulation Feature in the model tree

– Promote FM features to PMA

• New Remove feature to help simplify the analysis model

– Does not require a license of FMX


19


Weld Connection Improvements
