Creo Parametric
Creo Parametric is a 3D modeling software designed to be powerful and flexible. The software combines the top features of many popular 3D modeling softwares to create a comprehensive user experience. People who use Creo Parametric find it the best software on the market, because the software's capabilities eliminate the need to use up to four different softwares to execute the same task. Creo Parametric has modeling capabilities that match up to industry leading 3D modeling technology. It also adds to the software experience with additive manufacturing capabilities, model based definition (or MBD) capabilities, and connected design capabilities. The workflows are streamlined and the user interface is intuitive and easy to navigate. Creo Parametric has a huge number of modeling capabilities including direct modeling, robust assembly modeling, sheetmetal modeling, weld modeling, and 3D solid modeling. Also included is a documentation features which provides detailed documentation on both 2D and 3D drawings. There are surfacing capabilities implemented to refine the 3D models including technical surfacing and freestyle surfacing. Also included are features for the analysis and breakdown of the models that have been created. There's an integrated animation feature that allows you to bring your models to life, as well as comprehensive graphic experience. The data exchange feature allows for deeper analysis of complex data. There are online capabilities which provide you instant access to web-based help. You can also access a built-in library of tools, parts, and features, as well as fully customize the software to fit your unique 3D modeling needs. Creo Parametric comes with multiple online tutorials to mitigate the learning curve. These tutorials can be accessed through the PTC website. They teach you how to use the features and software to the best of your abilities, so you don't have to worry about blindly learning how to navigate new technology.
