PTC Wildfire 4.0 User 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.

Questions answered in these manuals
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.
What new feature improves large assembly performance in Wildfire 4.0?
Wildfire 4.0 includes enhancements that increase large‑assembly performance.
How does Wildfire 4.0 enable ECAD‑MCAD collaboration?
It automatically identifies incremental changes between MCAD and ECAD versions and supports real‑time collaborative editing.
