A special feature of ME10 is working with a model structure (tree structure): this system in mechanical engineering maps better than working with layers. For example, a standard_part eLibrary for mechanical engineering. contractors made the necessary application-specific solutions. Creo Elements/Direct Drafting uis designed as an open system, i.e. There are also several additional modules such as the module 'Parametric' for family-of-parts designs. The program includes its own macro language. See also solidmodeler aka Creo Elements/Direct Modeling or Creo Elements/Direct CoCreate. The first product designed using ME10 was the original HP DeskJet printer at the HP Vancouver Division.(HP Journal Reference) Hewlett Packard MDD (Mechanical Design Division) continued the ME10 development. The program was first developed by Hewlett Packard in Germany. It is recommended to create CAD macros for controlling the data exchange.Creo Elements/Direct Drafting now owned by PTC, and formerly called ME10 is a widespread CAD software application exclusively for 2D drawings, especially in mechanical engineering and electrical engineering. CAD macros are available for controlling the data exchange.ĭata exchange is possible via DXF, IGES or contour file. The drawings are transferred via MI-file and contour file. 4.1 (and higher).ĬoCreate ME10 or OneSpace Designer Drafting or PTC Creo Elements/Direct Drafting: The ActiveX interface is available in rel. The 3D model transfer is planned, meanwhile please use the STEP file interface.

This enables 2D drawing exchange to and from a BricsCAD document. The 3D model transfer is planned, meanwhile please use the STEP file interface.ĪctiveX interface is used for the 2D transfer. This enables 2D drawing exchange to and from a Solidedge document Drawing. This enables 2D drawing exchange to and from a SolidWorks document Drawing and 3D model transfer to a SolidWorks document Part.Īlso here the very comfortable ActiveX interface is used. PROFIL also supports the ActiveX interface. That means, drawings to and from CAD are transferred not by interface file but directly via the operating system.

The very comfortable ActiveX interface is used. In this process the drawing data are written directly into the just opened CAD document or read from the document respectively by using a Windows service. The drawing data are transferred not only by file formats like DXF, STEP, and others, but also via the very comfortable ActiveX interface (known also as COM interface). For this reason PROFIL was designed to work closely with any CAD system and to allow drawing data transfer in both directions. The goal of the software development has been: The new PROFIL user should continue using his preferred CAD system and should not waste his time with learning a new CAD system.
