Cad/cam With Creo Parametric: Step-by-step Tutorial For Versions 4.0, 5.0, And 6.0

The purpose of this book is to introduce the reader to 3D CAD/CAM modelling using Creo™ Parametric (Creo) software. This concise textbook consists of ten lessons covering the basics in Part and Assembly Modelling, Mould Design, NC Simulation, and Engineering Drawings. Each lesson provides essential knowledge and guides the user through the process of performing a practical exercise or task. The modelling philosophy, implementation of corresponding features, and commands behind each exercise are explained and presented in a step-by-step manner. The material is richly illustrated with screenshots and icons from the software interface to facilitate the learning process. Suitable for beginners and intermediate users, CAD/CAM with Creo Parametric enables the reader to make a quick start in learning how to use complex 3D CAD/CAM software such as Creo in engineering design and manufacturing. The aim is to develop an understanding of the main modelling principles and software tools as a basis for independent learning and solving more complex engineering problems.
