    UL listed cable harnesses

    Let's say I have a metal enclosure and I have power cables some high power (200A) some high voltage (1500v) I'm specifying everything be VW1 and sizing the conductors to be below our temp rise spec Is UL listed marks still needed or overkill? Any guidance or ideas are greatly appreciated...

    MDB and BOM Balloons

    I know we all have been begging PTC to create some sort of 3D BOM ballooning that is linked to the assembly structure, but dont know if its every going to come What are some strategies you all have done that are easy to do and not impossible to maintain? I have done the manual ballooning in 3d...

    Need Suggestions on CAD data management without PLM

    does your company have any type of Google Drive or Sharepoint? I have used those in the past at small companies and startups with decent success, but as others have said all it takes is one moron to bring down all the house of cards THIS SIGNATURE IS INTENTIONALLY BLANK

    Learning creo from SW, very basic questions

    Also I think you will be very happy with Creo once you get over the learning curve, I cut my teeth on Wildfire/Creo and then had to go use Solidworks and NX for a number of years, NX wasnt bad, but man I do not miss the strange instability and assembly mates and overall performance of SW, we...

    Learning creo from SW, very basic questions

    Sketches are fully constrained because of the absolute references, when you set up a sketch you have to pick 2 absolute references (think X and Y) and everything goes to these 2, in later Creo versions this is done pretty automatically, in older WildFire days, you had to pick the 2 surfaaces...

    NFPA 79 readily accessible and obstacles

    Any Code or Safety engineer interpretations here would be greatly appreciated I am working on a piece of machinery which is all low voltage DC and low pressure (below 100psi) The safety guy is not signing off on our design because they claim its dangerous because in certain cases and operator...

    Linked Section

    yeah that is what I thought I wanted to have company artwork controlled and released in windchill, and when people dont follow the rules and instead sketch the artwork directly onto the part to be able to see all the places where the released artwork is present and be able to do a mass ECO vs...

    Linked Section

    I dont think its possible, but is there a way to have a sketch in a model linked to a section that is released in windchill? so there is a parent child releationship there so if I updated the released section it will flow down the chain? THIS SIGNATURE IS INTENTIONALLY BLANK

    Question for Creo users working on PCB designs

    I have done PCB designs and ECAD import into Creo There are tools in Creo for ECAD design to designate areas, basically a special sketch that is exported look into cosmetic ECAD areas THIS SIGNATURE IS INTENTIONALLY BLANK

    Windchill - electronic approvals

    It shocks me (and saddens) how few companies that use Creo and Windchill actually use Windchill correctly There was one place I consulted with that had this home brew change management visual basic program to run that, and everything in windchill was still in design, none of their workflows were...

    Drawing Layer issue

    Brilliant! I really like you method, I really wish PTC would address this, I feel like the drafting tools/workflow are going backwards, maybe its just me I'm not terribly concerned about quantity accuracy on the repeat regions or in the balloons themselves since we do not have on sheet BOMs and...

    Export to Revit

    well that is part of the problem, you are thinking Revit is a CAD program, its not its architectual design or BIM, I dont think Autodesk intended Revit to go into all the places its gone, but since they captured the marketshare where they didnt intend they just adapted and ran with the new...

    Drawing Layer issue

    They should be, all views are green (its been a while, should the views border be green or blue?) I think figured this one out, I had turned off automatic regen so I could move through the pages faster, I'm assuming that Proe is regening behind the scenes when it spits out the pdf I used to...

    Drawing Layer issue

    I have a drawing that uses layers for different combined views to show the assembly and its internal parts It works ok in Creo, occassionally when I switch pages the views will change layers and show or hide stuff I want to see, then the combined state has a + next to it showing its somehow...

    Export to Revit

    I worked once for a place that had architects, it was tough for this very reason, I think Revit is locked down purposely to force you to use AutoDesk products (supposedly Inventor plays decently with Revit) Anyways, the only way I was able to get anything into Revit was by exporting it was stl...

    Feature X breaks group with Feature XXX error

    I was never able to find the feature that was causing my problems I tried to delete the group in question, but when I remade the group, I would get the same error but different group feature ID I finally deleted the 3 subassemblies that made up the group and readded them and this time the...

    CUSTOM BOM & PARAMETERS - SURFACE AREA

    @Kashif Naseem One potential way to do this I'm thinking is have a simplified representation that only show the sheet metal parts, then have a BOM that is driven by that simplified representation Its been a while since I have done that so I am not sure it will solve your problem THIS...
