Hello, everyone, and welcome to the Creo 10 launch webinar. My name is Paul Sagar, and I run the CAD Product Management team. I'm excited to present to you the new capabilities we've been working on for the last 12 months. We're seeing an expanded use of composite materials within our customers. More companies are investing in electrification strategies and have a need to better understand the human-to-design interaction. Consequently, those are three big themes within Creo 10. As with all releases, we continue to make usability improvements across the entire product and introduce significant new functionality to improve every user's overall productivity. We continue to focus on model-based definition as more companies are looking to transform their business by leveraging the value of the digital thread. We've continued to expand and invest in emerging technologies, expanding our simulation-driven design and generative design capabilities. Finally, we continue to broaden our manufacturing offering for both additive and subtractive. Let's start with composites. Composite materials are no longer found only in aerospace. Whether you're in wind energy, automotive, industrial equipment, yacht design, or many other industries, there's a growing move towards using composite materials. The ability to add strength, stiffness, impact absorption at exact locations while making highly optimized and light components is making this process more attractive to many industries. As such, we've introduced a new set of capabilities enabling users to design, simulate, and manufacture their composite products, starting with the ability to define the ply layup, add transitions between plies, and add core material, with simple and intuitive tools to be able to easily visualize, understand, and edit the layup, and even create the resulting solid geometry with accurate mass properties at the end. The resulting ply stack can easily be simulated in Creo Simulate or exported to third-party analysis tools. The draping of the individual plies can also be simulated to reduce shearing of the fabric. Tools are provided to splice or dart the fabric as needed. Once the design is complete, the flattened shape of each ply can be exported. This new composite design capability will be available in the first maintenance release of Creo 10 and will provide companies with the necessary tools to accurately define, validate, and manufacture their composite products. With a worldwide drive for sustainability and reducing their environmental impact, more companies are looking to expand and further invest in electrification. As such, we've broadened our existing cabling and ECAD offerings, starting with significant usability enhancements to the cabling environment, introducing a new dedicated cabling tree that provides clearer visibility into the harness structure. Whether you need to look at the cables, bundles, or connectivity, there is a dedicated tree view along with integrated search and filter for each view. These enhancements make it far easier to identify, understand, and investigate the Harness Design. Harness designs are becoming more complex and larger in size. Consequently, we've introduced a new command to split a harness at a given location. This capability addresses two primary use cases. Firstly, being able to split a Harness allows for the work to be divided among multiple people. Each person can work on their own split portion of the harness. Once done, the merge harness command would be used to bring the harness back into a single harness for manufacturing. Secondly, as harnesses are becoming more complex, there are occasions where a subsystem needs to be extracted from a harness and reused. Being able to split out that subsystem and make it independent allows for easy reuse of the complete subsystem, enabling design reuse and reducing overall design time. Creo 10 continues to expand our tools, enabling collaboration between ECAD and MCAD disciplines. In Creo 9, we added support to import silk screens and solder mask layers onto the ECAD board. In Creo 10, we expand this to support paste masks as well, providing engineers with greater awareness of areas to avoid or highlight in their mechanical design. Dedicated ECAD hole parameters can now be defined when creating the holes in the ECAD environment, simplifying the design process. Many customers build products that humans need to interact with or that need to be validated against safety standards. Consequently, Creo 10 sees us continue to expand our ergonomic design capabilities, starting with our human factors capability. Building on top of the work done in Creo 9, we've continued to improve the overall usability and interaction, providing greater dimensional control when manipulating the mannequin, providing easier access to placement constraints and snapshots. We've also expanded the reach capability, firstly providing four new reach envelopes for each hand: the index finger, middle finger, thumb, and palm. Secondly, providing additional orientation controls during reach operations. Finally, the mannequin library has been updated to now store each mannequin as an inseparable assembly, simplifying data management of the mannequins in the library. In Creo 9, we introduced the new visual field feature that's used to generate a vision cone of exactly the field of view of the mannequin, considering any occluding geometry. With Creo 10, we expand this and introduce a new reflection option, enabling the creation of a vision cone when looking at a reflective surface such as a mirror. Additional controls are provided to orient the reflective surface. These new capabilities help to verify that you're complying with the specific requirements, validating your design, and reducing the risk of late-stage design change once a physical prototype is built. As mentioned earlier, with every release, we continue to make usability and productivity enhancements throughout the entire product portfolio, driving to make every engineer more productive. Creo 10 is no exception. The last few releases of Creo, we've been expanding the use and type of model trees, introducing the design items tree, the quilt body evolution tree, to name a few. In Creo 10, we've continued to provide consistency between the model tree and the quilt body evolution tree by providing support for drag and drop from design items to the evolution tree, supporting search and column configuration. We've improved the tree display to make it easier to visualize the tree structure and enhanced drag and drop within an assembly, making it easier for the user to determine whether to perform a reorder or a restructure, overall focusing on unifying workflows and increasing productivity for the users. We continue to enhance our core features within Creo, further enhancing the project offset command inside Sketcher with improved diagnostics, the ability to project as construction geometry, and expanding these enhancements into trajectory-based features as well, such as sweep, providing simpler workflows and consistent behavior across different features. It's now possible to add standard parameters and notes to simple holes, being consistent with standard holes. Patterns also see several key enhancements related to pattern-of-pattern behavior, making it easier to increment pattern instances and provide greater control of pattern members. In Creo 7, we introduced multi-body design capabilities inside Creo, and over the last few releases, we've continued to enhance and refine the functionality. With Creo 10, we continue with this by introducing a new combined split trim body feature, unifying workflows and reducing the number of steps required to complete trim operations. We also introduced propagation capability during Boolean operations. Users can now choose to propagate annotations or even surface color during the operation, helping accomplish MBD-related workflows more easily. We also expanded our surfacing capabilities in general. In style, we introduced a new normal connection type that enforces G3 continuity across mirrored curves, enabling customers to build smoother, symmetrical surfaces. In freestyle, we added new support for rotational symmetry, enabling users to now quickly build highly organic, axially symmetric parts. We further expanded the warp command, allowing users to perform global shape modifications with ease. Users can now stretch their model to a predefined reference, enabling them to modify and control their shape parametrically. For the spine command, the user can now specify an existing curve to match the shape to, again, giving greater control and integrating design intent into their model. More and more customers are looking to transform their business, moving from 2D-centric to 3D-centric practices and realizing the full value and potential of the digital thread. Consequently, Creo 10 sees continued efforts to expand our model-based definition capabilities. We've introduced new annotation placement options, enabling users to relate symbols and surface finishes to other annotations. Related elements inherit the annotation plane, assignment to combination states, and behavior from their parent. Multiple symbols can be placed on a single common parent annotation. This new capability supports additional MBD workflows for the purpose of tracking control characteristics and PMI inspection planning by downstream consumers. GD&T Advisor also sees continued enhancements, providing improved readability of the annotations in the application tree. The general profile tolerance is now represented as a GD&T annotation, meaning all the properties of the annotation are conveyed to its parameters. Any model surfaces not specified by other GD&T annotations will automatically be added and updated to the general profile tolerance as semantic references. Additionally, improved compliance to ASME and ISO standards has been improved. Moving on to simulation, we continue to broaden and strengthen use cases supporting simulation-driven design by expanding our Ansys partnership. As generative design gains more interest in the market, we continue to push the envelope on what's possible. We're seeing more and more companies wanting to realize the value of simulation-driven design, bringing simulation early in the design process, reducing the risk of late-stage design changes, and increasing confidence in their design decisions. Consequently, we've continued to expand our real-time simulation capability with Creo Simulation Live, providing engineers with immediate feedback on design choices. In Creo 10, we see enhanced contact simulation, supporting bonded, free, and no-separation contacts, as well as improved contact detection. We've also enhanced and expanded the result types available for both fluid and structural, providing improved visual support. We continue to improve overall accuracy and performance, working closely with Ansys to take advantage of the latest enhancements in graphics card technology. For the more traditional final validation, we have our Creo Ansys Simulation Extension. In Creo 10, we have introduced a new advanced offering supporting more advanced physics use cases, starting with non-linear contact, commonly referred to as sliding contact, enabling the simulation of use cases such as snap fits. With or without friction, this provides the highly accurate answers you would expect from Ansys. We've introduced support for non-linear materials, most notably support for rubber deformation and behavior with the Neo- Hookean material model, and bilinear plasticity for true plastic deformation cases. We did not stop there. With more companies needing to understand the interaction and impact of thermal characteristics on a design, we've introduced the ability to combine thermal and structural physics to better understand the impact of thermal expansion. Finally, for simulation, we continue to improve the usability of Creo Flow Analysis, improving the streamlined display and overall animation behavior. We also introduced simulation scenes, allowing users to save their view and result settings for faster retrieval. Creo Simulation has also been enhanced to support the simulation of multi-body parts, allowing users to apply loads, define interfaces, or specify different mesh controls per body, providing improved control over the bodies and supporting common Creo workflows. More companies are looking to leverage the value of generative design, as increased pressures relating to workforce utilization continue to be a challenge. Therefore, Creo 10 sees us continue to invest in this emerging technology, providing capabilities fully integrated into the Creo design environment. With the introduction of rotational symmetry, companies can now generate optimized designs that are radially balanced, providing control over the axis of rotation and number of instances to generate. Additionally, based directly on customer feedback, we have also introduced the ability to apply a point mass and remote loads, enabling users to more easily set up and capture their design intent. As before, the resulting optimized geometry can be reconstructed as full CAD geometry if needed for downstream use and processes. Finally, let's take a look at enhancements in Creo's manufacturing solutions. As customers continue to explore and leverage the opportunities that additive manufacturing provides, we continue to broaden our set of capabilities. Creo 10 sees the introduction of three new beam-based lattice cells that are approved for use within the medical industry. We've also introduced two auxetic cells. Auxetic cells possess the unique characteristic that they represent a negative Poisson ratio. This makes them ideal for use when designing energy absorption or fracture-resistant designs. We didn't stop there. We also continued to broaden our support for formula-driven lattices. In Creo 8, we introduced the ability to vary beam-based lattices based upon simulation results. In Creo 10, we extended this to now support formula-driven lattice types as well, providing the ability to control the thickness of the lattice by the results of a simulation, enabling users to achieve their optimal design in less time. We also expanded the type of formula-driven lattices. We already have gyroid, primitive, and diamond functions, and now introduce I-WP, or I- graph wrapped Package function, providing better performance in structural applications. We continue to enhance our subtractive manufacturing as well. Over the last few releases, we have had a focus on building high-speed machining capabilities, as more customers not only need to reduce the time taken to create their complex toolpaths, but also demand higher quality finished products. Creo 10 is no exception here. We've added support for wall and floor finishing sequences, supporting barrel tools, allowing for fewer passes and smoother transitions between cuts, while also integrating gauge checking and automatic tool tilt adjustment. We've also continued to enhance our multitask machining capabilities by introducing a new CL player to better understand and validate the synchronization between multiple machining heads. We did not forget about turning sequences either, making cutter compensation enhancements and improvements to tool clearances, overall addressing many customer-driven improvements. There is still more. Shortly after the release of Creo 10, we will be launching Creo+. More and more companies are looking to take advantage of the benefits that software as a service provides, potential benefits such as reducing maintenance and administration activities, always running the latest software, consequently being able to take advantage of the latest technological advancements, and not to mention enhanced collaboration capabilities only available via cloud-based services, to name a few. What is Creo+? Creo+ is the next evolution in CAD, providing all the proven functionality and power that customers have come to expect from Creo, with additional cloud-based services that will enhance collaboration and streamline the process of licensing and administering the software, providing software that is always up to date, easy to configure, easy to deploy, and easy to use. Because it's built on the Creo architecture, there is no data translation, and all data is fully upward compatible from on-premise Creo. The initial release of Creo+ provides value for the administrator and the end user. For the administrators or the CAD admin, Creo+ will deliver tools to more easily deploy, manage, and get operational insight into Creo. Using a cloud portal, admins will be able to manage user entitlements, set deployment profiles, push notifications to users, and easily access product and system telemetry, all from the comfort of their own desk. Once users are added to the system, the PTC Control Center will be installed on the user's machine. This utility manages the user entitlement and makes sure that the software is always up- to- date. This will help them to save time, improve overall control, and better understand and monitor their full Creo installation. For the end user, the benefits are numerous. In addition to the comfort of knowing that you're always running the latest and most advanced software, you also have access to the cloud-enabled collaboration capabilities, enabling users to work together on their designs with real-time synchronization, integrated design branching, and typical sharing capabilities you would expect in a SaaS-based offering, fostering greater collaboration and increased productivity across the product development lifecycle with both internal and external stakeholders. Let's take a look at a simple collaboration session in action. Here you can see two Creo users side by side that need to collaborate to complete a series of design changes in time. The user on the right, Nihal, opens the assembly and invites the user on the left, Mark, to join the session. Mark and Nihal are now working on the same assembly at the same time. Nihal starts by adding a plug part to the bottom of the lower elbow. Mark's view updates to reflect the change, and a new micro version is added to the collaboration graph. Mark places a user-defined feature on the elbow to quickly create the standard flange geometry. At the same time, Nihal makes a change to the overall height of the valve assembly. Again, both user sessions are updated to show the changes in real time. Mark wants to perform some simulation work on the design and potentially try out some different ideas. While doing this, he doesn't want Nihal to be impacted by these changes, so he creates a design branch. In the separate branch, Mark uses Creo Simulation Live to perform a structural analysis on the valve body. Quickly, he can see the stresses are too high for the design. He modifies the body diameter and recalculates the simulation, now meeting his requirements. In tandem, Nihal has also modified the length of the elbow. At any point, Nihal can view the changes that Mark has done by switching to his design branch, and if happy with the changes, can merge them back into the main branch, resulting in the finished design containing the increased body size and the longer elbow. Mark and Nihal have been able to make their design changes quickly and effortlessly, thanks to the new cloud-based real-time collaboration capabilities only available with Creo+. This is obviously the first release of Creo+. We have a roadmap of continued enhancements we plan to introduce over the coming years, in addition to the ongoing CAD enhancements. We'll be working on improving the customization and configuration tools and behavior, gaining deeper understanding of how the software is being used to be able to provide more insight into usage patterns, workflows, and identify training needs. We will also be providing users with the ability to choose whether they want to run Creo+ locally as a fit client or through a web browser, enabling them to take advantage of the power where they have it and expand their mobility. This was just an overview of some of the amazing capabilities added in Creo 10 and Creo+, capabilities I believe will provide huge value to all our user base.
