Autodesk Inventor computer-aided design (CAD) software facilitates 3D mechanical design, visualization, simulation and analysis, rendering, and documentation. It has powerful features that provide designers and engineers professional-grade engineering and design solutions. Some of these features include the ability to integrate both…
Pro/Engineer, as it was formerly known, was released in 1987 by PTC and later rebirthed as Creo in 2011. PTC is an intuitive multidisciplinary 3D CAD program with a family of design tools for computer-aided design, engineering, and manufacturing. Using this…
As years have passed by, a good number of CAD software has been developed. This has been due to the increment in the application of design in different fields of creation. These software applications created have a wide range of varying…
Video Tutorial: Converting TIFF to Creo Let’s jump straight into a video tutorial. In this video we use Scan2CAD to convert a TIFF image to DXF/DWG which can be directly imported into Creo. An intro to Creo Creo is a software…
About Creo Creo is a set of apps focused on computer-aided design (CAD) specifically for the product design and manufacturing niches. The software suite is developed by PTC Inc., formerly known as the Parametric Technology Corporation, which is a computer services…
Also known as PTC Creo, Creo is a multipurpose 3D modeling software for CAD, CAM, CAE. This software caters to everything: product design, development, and manufacturing. Creo was initially called Pro/engineering when it was released by PTC in 1987. Its release…
Creo, also known as PTC Creo, is a multifaceted 3D CAD (Computer-Aided Design), CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing), and CAE (Computer-Aided Engineering) software for everything product design, development, and manufacturing. The powerful features of Creo include modeling and design, simulation and analysis, smart…
Design is a very crucial step in any manufacturing and creation process. Despite its importance, there was once a time when Design was subjected to limitations and inaccuracies present in the use of the traditional drafting desk and physical tools. Following…
Almost a decade and about 300 articles later, our Scan2CAD blog has touched on topics that revolve around BIM, CAD, and digital drafting with all the complexities and intricacies that go along with all of it. But for now, let’s go…
It’s difficult to find an industry nowadays that isn’t in any way dependent on CAD software to turn ideas into a finished product—whether it’s architecture, mechanical engineering or even gaming. This growing need for CAD has, of course, led to the…
Welcome to the March 2018 edition of World of CAD, Scan2CAD’s monthly roundup of all the news you need to know from CAD, CNC, and their related fields. There are plenty of big stories to cover this month. To begin with,…
CAD is an integral part of many industries out there—from architecture to engineering to gaming. It’s for this reason that so many students use CAD packages. The high demand for CAD however, has led to most packages being rather expensive. Many…
Since the introduction of CAD, design work that once used pen and paper now uses computers. CAD software replaces the traditional drawing board and makes design processes faster and smarter than ever before. CAD is a feature of every industry that…
Welcome to the eighth edition of World of CAD, Scan2CAD’s monthly roundup of CAD-related news. This month, we’ll start by covering Siemens‘ takeover of electronic design automation firm Mentor. Then, in software news, we’ll be discussing the updated versions of Autodesk’s Fusion 360…
