About Importing CDRS Models
CDRS is an Associative Topology Bus (ATB)-enabled format. You can import CDRS models or append them to parts in Creo applications to create IN features that are ATB-enabled.
The following import and append operations create ATB-enabled IN features:
• Importing CDRS models as new parts with
File >
Open.
• Inserting CDRS models as parts or features of existing parts using
Model >
Get Data >
Import.
• Assembling CDRS models as part components of existing assemblies with
Component >
>
Assemble.
The resulting part files have a standard Creo part icon in the Model Tree, but the import features, which are CDRS IN features, are represented by the ATB icon.
