Page 1: KEY Elements to PTC’s Pro/ENGINEER Software u u A Parametric Data Structure – – Control geometry through manipulation of dimensions associated to geometry

KEY Elements to PTC’s KEY Elements to PTC’s Pro/ENGINEER SoftwarePro/ENGINEER Software

A Parametric Data Structure– Control geometry through manipulation of

dimensions associated to geometry

Feature-based Modeler– Pick from list of intelligent features to create

geometry quicker

Multi-directional Associativity– All modules linked together so changes are

reflected everywhere in model

Design intent is incorporated into designs through use of relationships– Guarantees that design intent is incorporated

regardless of design changes

Pro/ENGINEER’s robust Assemblies module– Uses mate, mate-offset, align, align-offset, insert and

orient commands for ease of assembly

Double precision, non-faceted solid modeler– Surfaces defined to 15 places; curves defined as exact

Users of Pro/ENGINEER:Users of Pro/ENGINEER:– Are more productive

– Are more flexible

– Have faster time-to-market

– Have lower costs for design, prototype, and manufacturing
