Pro/ENGINEER (Pro/E for short) is a commercial CAD/CAM package that is widely used in industry for CAD/CAM applications. It is one of the new generation of systems that not only offer a full 3-D solid modeller, in contrast to purely 2-D and surface modellers, but also parametric functionality and full associativity. This means that explicit relationships can be established between design variables and changes can be made at any point in the modelling process and the whole model is updated.

Here you can find an introductory manual. This manual is designed to give you a very basic understanding of the philosophy of the Pro/Engineer package and its user interface.

And a quick reference guide is also available here:

A tutorial-based guide is available here: ProE (PDF Format)

If you follow the complete series of exercises, you will see how Pro/ENGINEER passes 3D design information to and from every design stage, from solid part creation, to part assembly, to the output of mechanical drawings.

The exercises will also show you the basic techniques of using Pro/ENGINEER in each design phase. This knowledge will help you to do your particular task within a team effort.
