It is now possible to create associative in-process stock models for each of the defined workpiece in the manufacturing assembly.
User Interface Location:

  • In manufacturing, open a milling or turning sequence, and then click Manufacturing Geometry > Stock Model.

  • In manufacturing, right-click a toolpath, and then click Stock Model.

Release: Creo Parametric 9.0.0.0

What is the benefit of this enhancement?
With this update, associative stock models are supported across all Creo NC sequences.

In earlier releases, in-process stock models were non-associative and could be created only for milling sequences.

This enhancement streamlines the overall workflow by reducing manual steps and provides clearer visibility into how the model evolves throughout the manufacturing process.

Additional Information

Tips:None.
Limitations:In-process stock models are not saved as secondary objects in Creo Parametric. After they are retrieved, you must recompute them.
Does this replace existing functionality?No.
