Bart Brejcha, Design Engine
Creo Surfacing from Beginner to Advanced | 12:30pm - 1:45pm ET
Bart Brejcha will share why a typical engineer would want to have surfacing experience. He will present by modeling surfaces as tools with respect to form, ergonomics & light reflections, and conclude by answering questions in an open-forum discussion.
As a super advocate and user of PTC products since 1990, Bart has presented to over 100 local Creo user conferences & four world conferences since 2001. Bart is known not to use PowerPoint in his presentations, but instead runs the latest released version, Creo 7.0, in an all-live presentation. Bart is a principal instructor at Design Engine and heads many product development projects from flying drones to baby products. His philosophy: “It’s not how fast you model something, but how fast you change it twenty times that makes you an expert”. Bart likes to ride motocross, sportbikes, mountain bikes and skateboards…pretty much anything that goes fast.
