PTC Inc., a U.S.-based computer software company specializing in 2D & 3D design software, product lifecycle management (PLM), has announced the new release of Creo View 3.0 M020, a lightweight standalone viewer, a program that lets you view, annotate, markup, share, and animate 3D CAD design files without a CAD program.

Digital data content, previously the private domain of design and manufacturing engineers, has now become an essential factor in the interactions and decision-making of a broad range of enterprise-wide product contributors. PTC Creo View technology, which is the basis of a comprehensive Enterprise Validation and Review solution, supports visualization of and interaction with product models. It delivers a scalable visual collaboration and digital mockup capability for product data that can be deployed throughout the enterprise. CIMdata reviews the capabilities of PTC Creo View and its ability to pair mechanical and electronic product data for full product visualization and interaction. Highlights include PTC Creo View’s support for a Model-based Enterprise strategy and its strong interference analysis and animation capabilities.
