AutoCAD 2D-Creo Parametric

The general process of creating a 3D model from the 2D drawing is shown below.

IMPORT 2D DRAWING

CLEAN UP OF IMPORTED DRAWINGS

• Dimensions, Notes, Symbols can be cleaned up automatically.
• Section lines, centerlines will be cleaned manually.

DEFINING VIEWS ON THE IMPORTED DRAWING

Drawing data imported to Creo Parametric may or may not contain views. You can select drafting entities of the imported drawing and logically group them to represent views in AutobuildZ. You can define orthographic, detail, section and auxiliary views using the AutobuildZ view setup tools.

When defining orthographic views, you can also calculate the drawing scale from reference dimensions and draft entities on the drawing or accept the default drawing scale (1:1).

CREATING CREO PARAMETRIC FEATURES

After completed the preparation of the drawing, i created features. Using AutobuildZ feature creation tools i can select all the components that define Creo Parametric features such as extrusions, revolves, holes and even datum features directly from the drawing. Feature Creation Wizards in AutobuildZ provide me with an integrated environment to completely define and create Creo Parametric features.
