PTC Wildfire 4.0 User Manual

About this manual

Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 4.0 is a 3‑D CAD/CAE/CAM system from PTC that introduced parametric design and uses a single database to achieve full associativity across all modules. The manual describes how changes made in any part of a design automatically propagate to assemblies, drawings, and manufacturing data, enabling parallel engineering.

The document outlines the core capabilities—sketching, part modeling, assembly design, sheet‑metal, cabling, and simulation—and details optional modules such as Pro/ASSEMBLY, Pro/CABLING, Pro/CAT, Pro/CDT, Pro/COMPOSITE, Pro/DEVELOP, Pro/DESIGN, Pro/DETAIL, and Pro/MESH. It also covers the user interface, menu structure, and support for international standards. This manual is written in Chinese.

Frequently asked questions

What design concept does Pro/ENGINEER introduce?

Pro/E was the first to introduce parametric design, allowing features to be defined by parameters that can be easily modified.

How does Pro/ENGINEER ensure that changes propagate throughout a project?

All modules are fully associative, so a modification in one place automatically updates related parts, assemblies, drawings, and manufacturing data.
