Creo Tool Design

Creo Tool Design is an optional module for Creo Parametric that provides the tools to simulate the mold design process. It offers the functionality to build parting lines and parting surfaces. It helps designers to extract punch, cavities and slides quickly. All the components extracted are associative to the design model and hence automatically update to the changes.

Course Details

Creo Tool Design course has been developed with great emphasis on the practical application of the software to solve real world problems.  The course offers numerous easy-to-follow tutorials. The self-study course starts from the very basic concepts and teaches advanced techniques step-by-step. After completing the course, an Engineer or Designer will be able to create the advanced parting geometry, split the mold into punch-cavity halves, create sliders and lifters, define multi-cavity molds, create runners, gates, sprue, cold slugs, create cooling channel and check their clearance from neighboring surfaces.
