Understanding CREO Parametric Through Examples

Understanding CREO through examples, as the name suggests, the book deals with the in-depth knowledge about CREO Parametric which is 3D CAD software and effective merging of application software used for design and product development. CREO Parametric is used by the designers due to various advantages which are Parametric and direct modeling, Flexibility, Interoperability and multi CAD data handling. It provides scalable access to the right capabilities which helps in meeting individual needs while designing a product. The book is divided into six sections. The authors strongly believe that the book is very apt for the engineering courses in the universities where the students can learn about CREO in a practical and understandable way. The strategy used in this book is simple with step by step techniques so as to enable the readers gain knowledge about the subject easily. The manufacturing section of the design section makes this book unique as no other books in the market have covered. Salient Features: The book is directed towards the understanding of CREO Parametric which is used by designers for its various advantages such as Parametric and direct modeling, Flexibility, Interoperability and multi CAD data handling. Presents the entire subject matter in 6 self- contained sections which are further sub divided into 15 chapters giving it a modular design. The book is practical and simple to aid engineering students of the universities gain full knowledge about the CREO Parametric through examples. Explains the weak dimensioning in Sketching mode and how to modify the dimension and also includes the inspect tool which consists of overlapping geometry, highlight open ends and shade closed loops. Manufacturing section of the design is the unique factor in the book which differentiates it from the other books available in the market.
