The Creo Parametric 11.0: Introduction for Experienced 3D CAD Users guide is designed to offer accelerated introductory training in the Creo Parametric 11.0 software. This guide is intended for users who have prior experience in 3D modeling design with other 3D CAD software packages (e.g., CATIA™, Inventor™, NX™, SolidWorks®, and so on).
This practice-intensive guide provides experienced 3D CAD users who are new to Creo Parametric with a concise, introductory-level learning resource. It focuses on helping you find and use modeling tools that correspond with familiar modeling strategies from other 3D CAD software. The topics covered will equip you with the necessary knowledge to complete the modeling process for a part—from conceptual sketching and solid modeling to assembly design and drawing production.
This content was developed using Creo Parametric 11.0.
