What is Creo Generative Design?
Creo Generative Design is an AI-powered 3D CAD tool that automatically creates optimal product designs from user-defined requirements. It allows engineers to specify materials, manufacturing processes, and performance goals, then generates multiple manufacture-ready design options simultaneously for evaluation. Design engineers can use this system to explore numerous design alternatives for machined, cast, or forged parts, helping both experienced and junior engineers develop lighter, stronger, and more cost-effective products in less time.
What sets Creo Generative Design apart?
Creo Generative Design sets itself apart with cloud-based computation that allows for parallel processing of numerous design scenarios. This computational approach helps manufacturing teams save time by highlighting top-performing options from the multiple design alternatives. The system works smoothly within the existing Creo environment, making it accessible for both veteran and junior engineers who want to push design limits.
