Introduction to Creo Illustrate

A powerful solution for creating 3D illustrations that communicate complex product information easily and accurately.

Leverage multiple CAD formats

Produce illustrations specific to the end product, even if it is designed using multiple CAD systems.

Restructure the eBOM to an sBOM

Create a service BOM (sBOM) using eBOM parts data to produce information structure for parts lists and service procedures.

Create rich 3D animations

Visually describe complex procedures for easy consumption and allow the user to view the illustration from any perspective.

Illustrate dynamic sectioning

Communicate components inside a complex assembly by creating a single plane section or a two plane, quarter-cut view.

Demonstrate step-by-step procedures

Create multiple figures in a single illustration to demonstrate step-by-step instructions.

Generate parts lists and callouts

Leverage metadata from the CAD file to produce dynamic parts lists and linked 3D callouts quickly.
