About Creo Product Insight for ThingWorx Extension
Use Creo Product Insight for ThingWorx Extension to connect sensors in a Creo Parametric design to a ThingWorx server. Then, use the design as a digital twin, that receives sensor data from the server and returns analysis results to ThingWorx.
Use Creo Product Insight for ThingWorx Extension to perform the following actions:
Download historical sensor data in the Creo Product Insight application from a ThingWorx server
Export Creo Parametric analysis results back to the ThingWorx Server.
Connect sensors in a Creo Parametric design to a ThingWorx server.
The following features are supported:
Pass historical, real world property data to Creo Parametric from a connected ThingWorx server.
Use Creo running as a service for analysis. A ThingWorx user can initiate an analysis on a published model from a browser. Creo Product Insight for ThingWorx Extension deploys the model to a Creo Parametric installation on a farm machine to run the analysis and return the results to the browser session.
Upload simulation data for properties from Creo Parametric to the connected source thing on the ThingWorx server.
Export analysis results to the server
Retrieve models from Windchill using AsStored configuration. This allows custom versions for each component in the assembly.
