Creo Tool Design Extension Overview

The Creo Tool Design Extension accelerates the creation of high-quality injection mold and casting tooling directly in Creo. With the Tool Design Extension, you’ll get rapid parting line/surface generation, core/cavity splitting, and tooling deliverables – all without exporting designs.

The highlights:

  • Wizard-driven UI for mold and cast tooling design
  • Automated creation of parting lines and surfaces
  • Associative core/cavity splitting and mold component creation, including sliders and inserts
  • Production-ready deliverables, such as drawings, BOMs, waterlines, runner/gate layouts

With the Creo Tool Design Extension, engineers can swiftly design mold and casting tooling using integrated workflows – reducing design time, synchronizing tooling updates, and minimizing errors when handing off to production. Make tool design easy, and deliver your best designs in less time with Creo.

All licenses must be operated within the same country they were purchased. If you need to procure a global license for your organization, please contact us to purchase.
