New software release integrates AI tools to cut repetitive tasks and boost validation speeds by up to 60x for manufacturers.
PTC launched Creo 13 and Creo+ 13.3, embedding an AI assistant directly into design workflows to provide engineers with real-time best practices and troubleshooting. The update aims to reduce manual tasks and accelerate product development cycles.
The release includes hundreds of productivity enhancements, such as a 70% faster assembly loading speed over networks and 60x faster transition calculations for composite design. A beta feature also analyzes 3D models to identify design issues earlier, improving validation efficiency.
PTC targets modernizing engineering workflows by leveraging AI to democratize institutional knowledge, supporting its vision for an “Intelligent Product Lifecycle.” The company specializes in PLM, CAD, and industrial IoT solutions for global manufacturers.
