TC Highlight - Sheetmetal

PTC USER Technical Committee

The PTC/USER Sheetmetal Technical Committee covers sheet metal modeling, primarily in Creo Parametric. Topics covered include walls, flat patterns, bend features, and other similar functionality. PTC and the Sheetmetal TC are starting a Working Group for Sheetmetal projects in Creo 9.0, with the current plan that includes the completion of the full multi-body support.

PTC/USER Technical Committees consist of customers like you who work together with PTC Product Managers talking about how the products work today and what can be done to make them even better. Joining a Technical Committee is a great way to have your voice heard and network with your peers in industry.

We welcome new members! Please apply for PTC/USER Sheetmetal Technical Committee or any other TC that may interest you via the PTC/USER portal.


Sheetmetal-Working Group

Sheetmetal Working Group Logo.png

This working group is to collaborate with PTC on the development of Sheetmetal projects during the Creo 9.0 development cycle. During the discussion, PTC will work with the group to discuss use cases, define requirements, review specification and implementation.

  • The biggest focus area relating to planned development projects is planned to be "Multibody" Support in Creo Sheetmetal
  • In addition the working group will also discuss other/related Sheetmetal use cases and identify product enhancement opportunities for those

Participants should be experienced Creo Parametric users that are currently dealing with work arounds for these use cases. Participants should also be willing to provide example models and additional documentation to illustrate their use cases and requirements.

The group will provide feedback during implementation and verify that the targeted use cases have been addressed.

Deliverables:

Use cases descriptions that can be leveraged to improve the capability in the software focused around the Creo 9.0 project. The group will produce a document with use case descriptions and related requirements, provide example models, provide feedback during implementation and verify that the targeted use cases have been addressed and detail out gaps that still exist.

PLM Virtual Conference: Getting Your Digital House in Order

PLM Virtual Confernce.jpg

Create a Solid Foundation for Enterprise PLM

A house needs a solid foundation if you expect it to last. With strong building blocks in place, you can add onto that house when and if the need arises. The same is true for a "digital house". With the digital thread at its core, an enterprise PLM foundation provides the infrastructure needed to build your digital house. So how do you go about building it?

Laying a firm foundation involves unifying engineering tools, processes, and methodologies - resulting in a 'system of product intelligence'. Doing so allows manufacturers to support global cross-discipline collaboration, enable concurrent manufacturing in engineering and the factory, and achieve closed-loop quality.

In this fully loaded event on June 8th and June 9th, you will:

  • Hear first-hand how leading manufacturers established their PLM foundation.
  • Learn how to get to value quickly delivering core PLM functionality.
  • Gain insight into PTC's top PLM priorities in our roadmap session.
  • Engage with speakers in live Q&A and an Ask the Experts forum.

Vuforia Expert Capture procedures are moving to Vuforia Vantage for mobile devices and tablets

Vuforia Vantage Banner.jpg

On May 27, 2021, you will no longer be able to access Vuforia Expert Capture procedures using Vuforia View on mobile devices and tablets.

After this date, instead of seeing your procedures in Vuforia View, you'll be directed to download Vuforia Vantage from your device’s app store. Once downloaded, you'll be able to access your procedures from Vuforia Vantage. If you're using HoloLens or RealWear devices, you will continue using Vuforia View.

We encourage you to download Vuforia Vantage in the coming weeks to avoid any disruption to your work. If you don't have permission to download apps to your mobile device or tablet, you may need to reach out to your IT department.

Watch the replay of our recent webcast, Introducing Vuforia Vantage: The new and improved delivery application for Vuforia Expert Capture to learn more.

If you have any questions or comments, you can ask in the PTC Community or learn more in the help center.
