PTC leads in Innovation with the following differentiators: 

  • PTC has built out the most comprehensive offering suite of computer-aided additions, with strongpoints coming from native inclusion of Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) features such as Finite Element Analysis (FEA), Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), mechanism dynamics analysis, tolerance analysis, and parameter-driven optimization. Additionally, PTC offers robust Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) provided through three avenues: subtractive, additive, and tool design.
  • Creo and Creo+ offer an intuitive model-based approach that takes users from the initial stages of product design to downstream in manufacturing. Creo and Creo+ associatively integrate all of the technical capabilities in the design process so that an engineer can model, dimension, simulate, render, and production plan complex assemblies within the digital thread.
  • This robust CAD toolset, along with simulation integrated through Ansys, Creo, and Creo+, are the overall strongest offerings for industrial-scale manufacturers.
