Windchill with Creo Parametric
In an integrated Creo/Windchill system, MI Materials Gateway is available for both Windchill and Creo Parametric.
MI Materials Gateway can be configured to support
either or both of the following workflows:
- Assignments made to parts or bodies in Creo are available on part objects in Windchill.
- Assignments made to parts in Windchill are available on CAD models in Creo.
Important:
When Creo Parametric is configured to assign materials to bodies (also called
'multi-body assignment' or 'multi-material assignment'):
- MI Materials Gateway supports synchronization of Granta MI assignments in the Creo-to-Windchill direction only. Synchronization in the Windchill-to-Creo direction is not supported, and must not be enabled if you intend to configure Creo to assign materials to bodies.
- For parts managed as Family Tables, synchronization of body-level assignments from Creo to Windchill is only supported for generics.
For details of how assignments are shared between Windchill and Creo Parametric in your system, see your Granta MI administrator.
