CAD Data and PTC Creo
CAD Data files are digital representations of man-made designs or real-world objects in a file-based data source. CAD data files are used primarily by the technical professions that include engineering, architecture, surveying, and construction disciplines.
Engineers and designers create and change CAD data using engineering applications like Computer Aided Design (CAD) software, Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) software, and other engineering application into another. They may open and view CAD data from others using viewers.
PTC Creo is 3D CAD software that lets you drive major changes and modifications to 3D CAD data. PTC Creo offers powerful, reliable, and simple 3D design tools that you can use to import, view, repair, and export 3D CAD data.

Why PTC Creo works well with all types of CAD Data?
With PTC Creo, design engineers can easily import CAD data and edit it using a direct modeling approach that doesn't sacrifice the original design intent. Engineers collaborate more effectively and easily work with other third-party or legacy CAD data files. Whether you are at the initial stages of conceptualizing a design, trying to simplify your product geometry for CAE analyses, or handling late-stage design change, PTC Creo saves time and accelerates your processes.
