What is the Creo Flexible Modeling Extension?


• Creo Flexible Modeling is an add-on extension developed to provide Direct
Editing capabilities within Creo Parametric
- Flexible Modeling provides the editing capabilities of Creo Direct Flexible
Modeling does not allow the user to create “new” geometry

What does the Creo Flexible Modeling Extension provide?


• Direct editing of 3D parametric geometry
- Eliminate the need to understand and rework outdated design intent
- Easily edit “rigid” and poorly define parametric geometry

• The ability to work with and edit 3D data from any CAD source
- Make changes to import and heterogeneous CAD data

Improve productivity and efficiency of casual users and non-CAD experts

• Satisfy the needs of casual users and non-CAD experts
- Easily edit 3D geometry from any CAD sources
- Encouraged downstream users to participate in product development activities

• Speed the creation of downstream deliverables
- Eliminate reliance on CAD experts to support the creation of downstream deliverables
- Allow non-CAD users to edit geometry, and prepare CAD information
- Eliminate the challenge of having to understand and edit design intent
- Allow users to work with data from any CAD source
