Creo Level 11: Import Data Doctor
Course Duration: 16 hours (2 days)
[accordion autoclose=false openfirst=true clicktoclose=true]
[accordion-item title=”Overview +” state=open]You used to be able to bring in IGES data before wildfire 3.0 Lean to manage import geometry from various 3D software packages such as Alias Studio, Rhino 3D, and/or SolidWorks. IDD (Import Data Doctor) can be offered for Wildfire 4.0 – 5.0 as well.
Note: Import Data Doctor is a two-day intensive workshop. We do not schedule this class often, so you must call Design Engine to schedule: 312.226.8339.
