Selective Removal of Dangling Beams in PTC Creo
This Improvement allows one to control which surfaces should be used to remove the dangling beams. Eliminating the old on/off approach, this enhancement provides a more flexible way to remove dangling beams and a better control over the lattice creation. User Interface: Lattice --> Cell Fill --> Dangling beams --> Keep/Remove/Remove by surfaces For more... Continue Reading →
Solid Weld geometry export enhanced
You can now export solid welds and define them as individual bodies, instead of merging them into a single body. This enhancement improves the export of Step AP242, JT, and Neutral files by enabling you to manage solid welds as individual bodies for the downstream use. User Interface: File > Options > Data Exchange: Export... Continue Reading →
