Plan and Manage Large Assemblies

Using top-down design tools, it’s easy to plan-out the skeleton of the assembly, so that individual components can be designed in the context of the overall structure. As a result, the complexity of managing various relationships between components is simplified.

Creo Elements/Pro also makes it easy to simultaneously share key geometry features among multiple design teams. You can also simplify very large assemblies using Default Envelopes. A design assembly containing many objects can easily be represented by a solid part with less detail in order to reduce the number of objects retrieved and decrease load times. Using tools that facilitate planning and collaboration, concurrent engineering is not only possible, it’s easy, enabling you to compress your design cycle and get products to market faster.

• Improve performance by simplifying large assemblies
• Use top-down design tools to build the skeleton model, giving you greater flexibility and control over the entire structure
• Make changes with confidence, knowing that all modifications are automatically propagated from the design to the manufacturing information
• Effectively control and communicate configuration rules, enabling you to create higher quality designs faster, and reuse your product designs in the future
• Quickly and efficiently customize product variants according to a customer’s unique requirements
• Support your company’s design- or build-to-order initiatives so you can provide better, custom products to customers faster, at less cost than your competition
• Concurrently create assembly manufacturing process instructions while detecting manufacturing errors as soon as possible

• Top-down design tools: products evolve ‘naturally’
• Intelligent use of simplification techniques
• Product configuration
• Reference viewer and reference control
• Exact assembly process definition
• Managing several product statuses
