Mastering 2D Drawing Annotations in Creo

As part of our Creo Best-Practices webinar series, Ben Muston, Senior Application Engineer at LEAP recently took a deep dive into the fundamentals of 2D annotations within the Creo Parametric drawing environment. Here we have provided the highlights from this session which will guide you through creating clear, compliant 2D technical drawings with views, dimensions, notes, symbols, and GD&T annotations. Read on to learn how to improve the clarity and manufacturability of your 2D outputs.

Announcing the LEAP KeyShot Challenge Winners!

Running throughout May and June 2025, the LEAP KeyShot Challenge will award fantastic prizes to the very best renders submitted by users in Australia and New Zealand. 30-day licenses are available to entrants for use during the competition – read on for more information on entry requirements, prizes and more!

Introducing the LEAP KeyShot Challenge

Getting Started with Vuforia Studio to author Augmented Reality experiences – Part 2

Part 2 of our Getting Started with Vuforia Studio blog series introduces a new set of essential video tutorials that walk you through the process of authoring AR experiences and how to implement particular AR techniques and UI elements using Vuforia Studio. Topics include navigating the 2D canvas, animating and creating exploded views with Creo Illustrate, using occlusion and more.

NAFEMS Discovery Benchmark Series – Part 2: Pressure Plates

Part two in our NAFEMS Discovery Benchmark Series tackles pressure plates. The NAFEMS linear elastic benchmarks feature two problems where a plate is subjected to a pressure load. LE1 involves a thin elliptic structure stretched outwards by a pressure force, while LE10 uses the same plate, but thickens it and applies a higher pressure. Read on to see how Discovery handled this benchmark test.

NAFEMS Discovery Benchmark Series – Part 1: Introduction

In 1986, NAFEMS first published a set of benchmarks for FEA codes with the aim to develop a set of standard tests that would more critically allow developers and users to interrogate the performance of FEA software. In this NAFEMS Discovery benchmark series we put Ansys Discovery to the test against challenging benchmarks to see just how well this tool can improve your design workflow.

Understanding and Managing Design Intent with Creo Reference Viewer

The Creo Reference Viewer allows users to visualise and analyse the relationships and dependencies between different components in a Creo model or assembly. Users can see how different parts and assemblies are related to each other, which is vital for understanding complex designs and ensuring that changes made in one area do not negatively impact other areas. Here we have collated the highlights of our Creo Best Practices session to provide practical strategies to enhance efficiency and clarity in your CAD models.

LEAP at the Avalon Australian International Airshow 2025

The LEAP team had a fantastic week at the 2025 Avalon Australian International Airshow representing our partners PTC and Ansys and showcasing impressive innovations alongside Integra Systems, Monash HPR and RMIT University. Read our recap and see some of the technology on display during the show.

Ansys Shared Web Licensing

The Ansys Shared Web License allows users to work from anywhere, on any device with an internet connection. This is a clear difference from Flexnet License which requires both the user and license server device to be within the same network. This article explains the benefits and provides details on how you can get started with of Ansys Shared Web Licensing today.

Best Practices for Top-Down Design in Creo Parametric

Adopting a top-down modelling approach to effectively plan your assemblies with proper structure, naming conventions, and modularity requirements, ensures a solid foundation for your designs right from the start. This post provides a deep dive into the top-down design approach, explaining what it is, the problems it help designers avoid and the benefits it provides.
