ProductView Express provides for the preview of Pro/ENGINEER models within the Pro/ENGINEER browser (embedded) and in browsers running outside of Pro/ENGINEER (standalone). 

On Windows, ProductView Express is installed or updated automatically the first time you select a model from the Folder browser within the Pro/ENGINEER browser. You can install the Production release of ProductView Express for Windows using the command

<proe_loadpoint>\<machine_type>\obj\pvx_install.exe. This installation provides both the embedded and standalone browsers for PVX.

On UNIX, you install and configure ProductView Express while installing Pro/ENGINEER. You can download for free the standalone version of ProductView Express, compatible with Pro/ENGINEER

Wildfire 3.0, from the ProductView Express page: /products/pvexpress/index.htm.

Note: ProductView Express Wildfire 2.0 standalone is not compatible with Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 3.0. 

Pro/CONCEPT Customers 

•  Pro/ENGINEER parts and assembly files can be loaded directly in Pro/CONCEPT (Windows version only). Other file formats that can be read into Pro/CONCEPT (both Windows and Mac OS X) are IGES (*.igs), STL (*.stl), Wavefront (*.obj) and ProductView (*.ed, *.ol).

•  To transfer Pro/ENGINEER curves to Pro/CONCEPT, save the curves in the Neutral File format

(*.neu). 

•  To transfer images between Pro/CONCEPT and Pro/ENGINEER, use the supported image file formats.

•  To load a layout from Pro/CONCEPT, use the Trace Sketch dialog box in the Pro/ENGINEER Style feature and click File > Open Scene. This command loads the trace sketches and the 3D curves from a Pro/CONCEPT (*.cpt, *.cpz) file. The Style feature is part of the Freeform Surfacing (ISDX) module.

•  To load the curves or model geometry from Pro/CONCEPT, click Import > Shared Data > From File. Browse to the neutral curve file (*.neu) or the STL geometry file (*.stl). You can use

Pro/CONCEPT geometry in Pro/ENGINEER in a number of ways. The Reverse Engineering (REX) module provides tools for wrapping surfaces onto the facet data.
