+ Advanced Assembly Management with Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 3.0

Course Duration: 3 days

Tuition: $1350 USD

Overview:
Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 3.0 enables you to create complex assemblies using a top-down design process.

In this course, you will learn how to use Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 3.0 to create and manage complex assemblies using top-down design techniques. In the top-down design process, you start an assembly design by creating a layout. The layout contains specifications and parameters that are used to control the entire assembly design. Then you create a preliminary assembly structure. This structure contains the components and their hierarchy within the assembly. Next, you use skeletons to define critical component dimensions and mounting locations, space requirements, and the motion between the assembly components. Finally, you create component geometry by referencing the skeletons and sharing design information within the assembly.

In addition, you will also learn how to reduce file size and regeneration time in complex parts, assemblies and drawings by using simplified representations. Simplified representations enable you to exclude components that are not necessary to the current design task, thereby reducing geometry detail and improving system response times.

You will apply the concepts and techniques that you learnt in the course to complete a top-down design project.

Pro/FICIENCY assessments will be provided in order for you to assess your understanding of the course materials. The assessment results will also identify the class topics that require further review. At the end of the class, you will either take an assessment via your PTC University account, or your instructor will provide training on how to do this after the class.

After completing the course, you will have a better understanding of the top-down design process and how to work efficiently with large, complex product designs using Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 3.0.
