Manage assembly design and concurrent engineering
• Define the top-down design assembly structure – Capture design intent using skeleton models
• Establish and enforce assembly design best practices – Publish geometry to distribute and share reference geometry
• Facilitate and manage the concurrent design process – Collaborate and implement top-down driven design changes
• Graphically visualize dependencies and relations – Visualized references and change propagation
CONCURRENT ENGINEERING AND TOP-DOWN DESIGN
8
Design- and configure-to-order component design
• Define functional interchange groups– Support configure- and build-to-order initiatives
• Create simple programs to automate customization – Create new product iterations based on input parameters
• Substitute components based on calculations or user input– Define input logic to automatically switch out components
or subassemblies
DEFINE VARIANT AND CONFIGURABLE PRODUCTS
9
Automate the creation of assembly process planning documentation
• Easily define the sequence of events for assembly – Capture step-by-step drawings and views
• Completely document the process– Associative manufacturing BOMs for each assembly step
• Color-code models to differentiate assembled components– Improve clarity and understanding of
ASSEMBLY PROCESS PLANNING

Creo AAX takes the complexity out of designing, managing and sharing large assemblies
Key Benefits:
• Enable more efficient concurrent engineering by sharing geometry features, configuration rules and other CAD data among design team members
• Improve assembly performance with an enhanced top-down design process that allows faster, easier design
• Use skeleton models capture design intent and drive the creation of assembly designs
• Simplify assembly customization by managing and sharing critical engineering data for the efficient creation of design variants
• Develop assembly drawing and process plans more easily, speeding creation of detailed fabrication instructions and service manuals.
SOLUTION SUMMARY
11
• Grow Market Share with Customer Focused Products– Support modular design and configurable products
• Improve Ability to Fulfill Demand– Facilitate planning, collaboration and concurrent engineering
• Effectively work with and manage distributed design teams, partners and suppliers
– Improve engineering and manufacturing efficiency and throughput • Manage and communicate design requirements and tasks
• Support and enable component reuse and modular design
• Develop and Define New Markets– Improve collaboration and communication with distributed design partners
– Solicit and incorporate the voice of the customer• Programmatically automate the customization of product lines
based on input parameters
