DATA SHEET Creo CADDS 5 Modeling Foundation Content rich, out-of-the-box functionality for 3D CAD design and drafting; acts as a baseline for any other Creo CADDS 5 modeling software option. switch dynamically between components, as the design evolves. Using either a top-down or bottomup approach, the engineer can build moderately complex hierarchical assemblies. Users can modify existing assemblies, including imported parts or assemblies, such as those from Pro/ENGINEER, brought in with the unique Associative Topology Bus (ATB) from PTC. Solution overview Creo CADDS Modeling Foundation is based on the adaptable, Creo CADDS 5 hybrid-modeling kernel, and includes a broad range of explicit and parametric 2D/3D, wireframe, surface and solid modeling tools, plus extensive associative dimensioning and drafting functions. The 3D modeling software environment benefits from a range of visualization representations, from fully shaded models, through hidden line to wire frame, all of which are integrated with full dynamic manipulation. Visibility and ease-of-use are further enhanced by the ability to clip views, allowing the user to view and work on a muchreduced dataset. For CAD CAM assemblies, the package includes an adaptable, managed, single-user assembly design tool that enables the engineer to design or modify components, using any of the parametric or explicit geometry editing or creation tools within the context of the assembly. The user can Page 1 of 3 | Creo CADDS 5 Modeling Foundation To validate the 3D models, as well as ensure the 3D model meets design requirements, the package includes mass property calculation facilities. There are also a variety of interference detection capabilities, analytical one against one, facetted one against many, for rapid assessment of potential assembly and manufacturing problems for higher quality products. To fully document a 3D design, the package includes a set of powerful, associative, automated detailing, sectioning and hidden line removal tools that can operate on AEC entities, surfaces or solid models. Bi-directional associativity between drawings and parametric models is also provided. This package also includes the Creo CADDS 5 macro language, CVMAC, for automating many of the often-repeated tasks undertaken by engineers (e.g., automated drawing production routines, extracting BOM information). The automation of these tedious tasks can save significant time that can be used to work on other activities. For engineers who do not need to change the model, but just document it, Creo CADDS 5 Drafting Foundation is also available.
