Case Study
Unlock Next-Level Composite Design with Creo 12
This case study highlights how Cannondale leverages advanced composite materials and digital engineering tools to improve product design, performance, and manufacturing efficiency. Composite materials provide engineers with opportunities to create lighter, stronger, and more durable products while supporting sustainability goals. The study focuses on Creo 12 Composite Design and Manufacturing (CDM), which enables the efficient creation of solid geometry from composite layers, direct definition of manufacturing plans from engineering models, and seamless management of complex composite structures. Enhanced capabilities such as full associativity, ply merging across zones, improved transitions, and advanced draping functions help streamline design and production workflows. By using integrate
