What is Creo Automation & Customization?
In the world of 3D CAD software, both Creo Automation and Creo Customization are powerful ways to enhance productivity and streamline workflows. While often used interchangeably, they represent distinct approaches to making PTC’s Creo Parametric work more efficiently for you or your organization. In essence, customization is about tailoring the user environment, while automation is about making the software perform tasks on its own.
What is Creo Automation?
Creo Automation takes customization a step further by creating programs and scripts that drive Creo to perform complex or repetitive tasks without manual intervention. It’s about building intelligent systems that can execute entire workflows.
The main objectives of automation are to:
- Drastically reduce design time for families of parts or standard products.
- Eliminate human error in repetitive processes.
- Free up engineers to focus on more creative and innovative aspects of design.
- Automate the generation of deliverables like drawings, BOMs, and manufacturing data.
What is Creo Customization?
Creo Customization focuses on adapting the Creo user interface and environment to suit specific user preferences or company standards. Think of it as personalizing your workspace for maximum comfort and efficiency. This can range from simple tweaks to more in-depth modifications.
The primary goals of customization are to:
- Improve user efficiency by placing frequently used tools at your fingertips.
- Enforce company standards by providing standardized templates and environments.
- Reduce repetitive actions through shortcuts and simplified interfaces.
- Advanced Customization (APIs): Use Creo Toolkit with C, C++, or Java to build custom features and dialogs that integrate smoothly into Creo.
