If you need to add pipes to your design, it’s easy to do so with the Cabling and Piping module in Creo 4.0. But what happens when you encounter errors in the piping database?

To say connected products is a trend is an understatement. By the end of 2017, IDC estimates that 70% of discrete manufacturers will offer connected products.
This new breed of products, which have connectivity at their centre, is dramatically changing industries and competition as we know them today.
But, for organisations to be able to meet the challenge, they need all the key stakeholders in the product lifecycle to be aligned. At the same time, processes will need to be streamlined, so that organisations are in a better shape to react to customer feedback and the real-time data that connectivity provides.
One of the key challenges facing manufacturers today is communicating information throughout the organisation.
Enabling this requires universal data access for all stakeholders in the product lifecycle. But siloed departments and teams mean this is often easier said than done.
To combat this problem, ThingWorx Navigate opens up new communication opportunities for manufacturers by modernising how organisations see, access and author production information stored across enterprise systems - effectively breaking down barriers to communication.
Here are five ways that ThingWorx Navigate enables this to happen:
Hopefully you already know about the free download of PTC Mathcad Express, a license-free version of PTC Mathcad Prime. You probably also aware that it includes a fully functional PTC Mathcad Prime trial for 30 days.
Some time ago, PTC introduced the “flexible modeling” extension into Creo. Changes to models and retaining design intent are now easy thanks to the direct modelling capabilities within Flexible modelling in PTC’s traditional parametric 3D CAD System.
When your to-do list is long (and keeps growing), it's easy to get stuck doing the same thing. Before you know it, your competitors are using new and innovative technologies - and leaving you behind.
In 2012, a report by IDC suggested that organisations were only using 0.5% of the data they produced. Alone, that’s a worrying statistic, but combine it with a 2013 finding that 90% of the world’s data had been created in the previous two years, and there’s clearly a rather large hole down which business metrics are falling.
