PTC Research Study, $100.00 Incentive! Do you work with industrial machine data to drive process improvements in manufacturing?
PTC is conducting a research study to gather user feedback on PTC’s DPM Performance Analysis time loss analytics feature to learn more about how people who are responsible for setting up, tracking, and analyzing production data in a manufacturing environment, or people who are responsible for determining projects to improve production efficiencies would expect to use our DPM solution.
Roles may include (but are not exclusive to) Continuous Improvement Managers, Quality Managers or Process Improvement Leads. If you are responsible for analyzing manufacturing machine data to improve production efficiency, you would be a great fit for this study.
The 60-minute research session is conducted remotely via an MS Teams or Zoom meeting. Research studies will be conducted May 2 - 12, 2022. Participants who complete the session will receive a $100.00 Amazon e-gift card for their time.
Questions? Contact Kim Moroni, kmoroni@ptc.com
P.S. Forward the invite to other people at your company who fit this profile. If they participate in the research, you will also be eligible to receive a $100.00 e-gift card.

Are your models leveraging the full power of Creo Parametric? Several new capabilities have been released and extended recently, and if you want to learn more about them, what better way than to take a class with PTC University? PTC University offers three-hour sessions delivered on a regular schedule so that you can harness the power of Creo Parametric.
Multibody design was released in Creo Parametric 7.0. Before multibody, when solid geometry from multiple features intersected, the geometry was merged. If you didn’t want the parts to merge, you had to model using surfaces. Creating multibody models simplifies part design for intersecting solid geometries by allowing you to select merge, subtract, or intersect. The tools introduced make part design easier. Multibody is also used in selection, applying materials and appearances, Topology Optimization, Generative Design, Additive Manufacturing, and more! To learn how to use the features, register for the Creo: Multibody Design class.
Model-Based Definition (MBD) has been around since Creo Parametric 4.0. It enables you to embed all the necessary manufacturing data directly into your 3D models, rather than relying upon annotations from 2D drawings. Thus, the 3D model is the single source of truth for your extended team and even downstream suppliers. This prevents costly errors, streamlines inspection, and saves time. To get started, take the Creo: Creating Annotations Using Model-Based Definition class.
AI-driven Generative Topology Optimization was introduced in Creo Parametric 7.0. You define the design requirements, and through AI, generative design automatically creates optimal designs. It’s fully integrated into Creo Parametric, and results in more optimal designs than you could conceive in a fraction of the time. Want to learn how to use it? Sign up for Creo: Generative Topology Optimization.
If you’re interested in all these classes, you should consider signing up for a LEARN Online Subscription, so you can take these classes and any others in the Creo Training Catalog. PTC University will be releasing several more classes before the end of the year, keep an eye out!
