A PTC Case Study
College Park Industries, a Metro Detroit prosthetics innovator, needed to speed design and production of highly customized prosthetic feet while managing hundreds of thousands of product combinations and improving performance for end users. To support rapid concept-to-prototype workflows and advanced engineering requirements, they turned to PTC and its PTC Creo design suite to create, iterate, and validate 3D models quickly across disciplines.
PTC delivered a parametric, simulation-capable solution with PTC Creo that enabled College Park Industries to optimize designs, reduce physical prototyping, and streamline tooling and manufacturing. Using PTC Creo, College Park cut development time, reduced weight by 10% and increased strength by 40% on the redesigned Soleus line, and scaled design processes to handle vast customization — outcomes that directly improved products for users like Reggie Showers.
