Features: Pro/Engineer is an integrated CAD/CAE/CAM design software launched by PTC in 1988. It has now become one of the most widely used 3D design software in the world and is extensively applied in fields such as machinery, automotive, aerospace, mold, industrial design, and more. The parametric, feature-based design method of Pro/Engineer represents a major breakthrough in traditional 3D modeling software concepts and sets a new standard in the field of mechanical design automation. The Wildfire version introduced in 2002 is the world's first "all-in-one" integrated system for product development and is the core of PTC's Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solutions. Using Pro/Engineer and its related software can integrate industrial design, mechanical design, functional simulation, and manufacturing processes, significantly shortening product development time and workflow.
