Have you tried relating symbols and surface finish annotations to other annotations in Creo MBD?

In the past, relating symbols or surface finish annotations to other annotations in Model-Based Definition (MBD) was a manual and non-associative process that lacked persistence when the parent annotation was moved. This enhancement introduces a more efficient way to link… Continue Reading →

Have you seen the automatic creation of part-level dimension loops in Creo EZ tolerance analysis?

Previously, EZ Tolerance Analysis included only the most efficient part-level dimension between two mating features in the Stackup Table, leaving other intermediate dimensions unused unless manually added. With this enhancement, EZ Tolerance Analysis now detects existing intermediate linear dimension annotations… Continue Reading →

Are you aware of the new support for exporting stackup data to the CETOL (.cxm) format in Creo?

Previously, it was not possible to export analyses from EZ Tolerance Analysis and use them in CETOL. With this enhancement, EZ Tolerance Analysis now supports the export of tolerance stackup data in the CETOL (.cxm) format, allowing for seamless integration… Continue Reading →

Have you explored the ability to select an alternate annotation plane in Creo EZ tolerance analysis?

Previously, once an annotation plane was selected during stackup creation, it couldn’t be changed without starting over. This enhancement now allows you to select an alternative annotation plane for the stackup annotations, streamlining the process and saving time. Creo Parametric 10.0.0.0… Continue Reading →

Did you know you can now include material modifiers effects in the Creo stackup table?

Previously, while the effects of material condition modifiers (MMC Ⓜ or LMC Ⓛ) on position tolerances were considered in stackup calculations, they were not displayed in the Stackup Table. With the latest enhancement, a new row has been added to… Continue Reading →

Have you tried the enhanced analysis results plot with all quality metrics in Creo?

Previously, the stackup analysis results plot was based solely on the selected quality metric, leaving out other important metrics for reference. With this enhancement, the plot now includes additional quality metrics—such as Cpk, Sigma, DPMO, and %Yield—alongside the chosen metric,… Continue Reading →

Have you seen the new link and unlink feature for component names in the Creo stackup table?

In previous versions, when designs were copied and Creo models were renamed, you had to manually update the component names in the Stackup Table. This step could be easily overlooked, leading to confusion and extra work. The latest enhancement automatically… Continue Reading →

Are you aware of the enhanced visualization for Creo EZ tolerance analysis during stackup creation?

In previous versions, it could be challenging to verify which components were correctly selected in the graphics area during stackup creation. This latest enhancement improves the visualization of selected components by applying enhanced transparency and highlighting, making it easier to… Continue Reading →

Have you explored the Creo enhanced EZ tolerance analysis: a streamlined new stackup dialog box?

Previously, if you selected an incorrect component or mating feature while defining a new stackup, there was no way to correct the mistake without starting the entire workflow over again. With the latest release, the New Stackup dialog box has… Continue Reading →

Did you know about the PPRINT support for tool parameters in Creo?

PPRINT support is now available for all tool parameters, allowing them to be added to the CL data as PPRINT statements. A new Tool Parameter UI command has been introduced, which includes all tool parameters. To display the required tool… Continue Reading →

Have you tried the Creo ‘s USER_OUTPUT_POINT parameter support in area turning and profile turning?

The USER_OUTPUT_POINT parameter allows you to specify a tool offset in the XZ plane of the NC sequence coordinate system for both Area Turning and Profile Turning steps. The toolpath is offset by the NOSE_RADIUS value along the X-axis, Z-axis,… Continue Reading →

Have you seen Creo ‘s TURN_FOLLOW_TPROF_DIR parameter support in area turning and groove turning?

The TURN_FOLLOW_TPROF_DIR parameter allows the turn profile direction to control the cut direction in both Area Turning and Groove Turning sequences. Creo Parametric 10.0.0.0 User Interface Location: •In Manufacturing, click Turn >  Area Turning. •In Manufacturing, click Turn >  Groove Turning. Benefits:This enhancement offers greater flexibility by… Continue Reading →

Are you aware of Creo ‘s CLEAR_DIST parameter support in area turning?

The CLEAR_DIST parameter allows you to define a clear distance above the workpiece surface at which PLUNGE_FEED ends and CUT_FEED begins. This provides enhanced control over how the plunge feed is applied during machining. Creo Parametric 10.0.0.0 User Interface Location: In… Continue Reading →

Have you explored CUTCOM support at each slice in Creo area turning?

This enhancement introduces the ability to include a CUTCOM statement at each slice in the Area Turning sequence, providing greater flexibility in your machining operations. Creo Parametric 10.0.0.0 User Interface Location: In Manufacturing, click Turn >  Area Turning. Benefits:This user-friendly enhancement allows you to… Continue Reading →

Did you know about the ability to define a tool offset for the tool adapter in Creo?

A new tool offset parameter has been introduced to adjust the holder position along the tool axis. The Adapter Offset option, available in the Tools Setup dialog box, supports displacing the holder position along the tool axis. This feature allows… Continue Reading →
