Description
You can now assign Windchill managed materials directly to parts in Creo. Once assigned, the material data is used to calculate mass properties. After checking in the material information and mass properties are automatically passed to the CAD model and the associated WTPart in Windchill. This enhancement provides visibility and traceability between material usage and Bill of Materials (BOM).
The seamless integration between Windchill and Creo allows Creo users to easily select and assign materials to parts in Creo.
Benefits
Supports material selection early in the design process.
