PTC unveils new version of Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire, plans for CoCreate

摘要

Some might find it ironic that PTC, the originator of parametric modeling, now has its own "explicit" modeler. The new modeler comes with the USD250-million acquisition of CoCreate that PTC announced in late November. "PTC built the very first parametric modeler," says James Heppelmann, PTC EVP and chief product officer. "CoCreate developed the first market-leading explicit or 'dynamic' modeler. PTC today has both, and is the industry's leading innovator."
