Software Description:
CATIA puts 3D collaborative innovation at theheart of the enterprise and helps accelerate companies’transformation toward a full PLM 2.0 approach. Going far beyondtraditional CAD software tools, CATIA V6 offers a unique digitalproduct experience that brings 3D product design to life withunmatched realism.
Thousands of companies in multiple industries worldwide havetaken advantage of CATIA’s virtual design capabilities to ensureproduct success. CATIA design software delivers products andsolutions for the companies of all sizes, from large enterprisesand small and medium businesses.
Here are some key features of “CATIA”:
– A Unique new compatibility enables seamless Live Collaborationbetween CATIA Version 6 and V5
3D Models created in CATIA Version 6 can be sent to V5, retainingtheir core features. These features can be modified directly in V5.A design can now evolve iteratively, with engineers having thefreedom to create and modify the part at the feature level, whetherthey use CATIA V5 or Version6.
– Unique breakthrough technology which revolutionizes theway creative designers express and communicate their designintent
Natural Sketch brings to creative designers a new level ofexpression, creativity & communication via 3 unique userexperiences, allowing them to:
Sketch in 3D to express & communicate their creative ideas
Transform their 2D idea into a 3D reality
Explore detailed design by sketching on 3D objects
– Flat cables geometry management for 3D wire harnessdesign
CATIA 3D Electrical Design product takes benefit of the “flexalgorithm” from Simulia to introduce a new, dedicated 3Drepresentation for flat cables, which notably handles the torsionof the cable’s profile all along its center curve. The creation andmanagement of 2D folds on flat cables makes it possible to designflat cables with a more realistic behavior, increasing the model’squality and comprehension.
– Complex harness design and flattening can now proceedmore concurrently
CATIA V6 allows electrical designers to upgrade their currentharness design process, leading to important productivityimprovements in the Downstream Preparation for manufacturing.Complex harness design and flattening can now proceed moreconcurrently, with sections or zones of the harness being extractedand flattened as the design evolves. There is no need to wait forthe complete harness design to be finalized before proceeding withthe flattening step. This way Layout management task which isextremely time consuming can now be started early in theprocess.
– ECAD – CATIA collaboration with exchange of the boardlayers & conductors definition
CATIA Printed Circuit Board Design now enables you to take intoaccount all the geometry of the board, in order to ensure rightfirst time design , and to reduce physical prototypes. Theproduct now supports the Import & Export of IDF files includingthe definition of layers and conductors, and their electricalproperties. The modeling of detailed 3D circuit board conductors& layers is very useful for downstream analyses such as Voltagedrop simulation, Heat flow or electromagnetic interference. It alsoimproves the accuracy of the circuit board representation in thevirtual product, removing issues related to mechanical designintegration.
– Greater Openness for equipment engineering throughimproved support of industry exchange standards
The CATIA KBL Export function enables to export CATIA 3D electricalSystems & geometry into the KBL neutral format file. Export to KBL format is needed for data exchange between carmanufacturers and specialized wire harness manufacturing suppliers,to support collaboration scenarios.
– Enrichment and completeness of industry process coveragedelivers productivity gains.
Plastic Mold Tool design time reduced by 60% with improvedTemplate-based design approach.
New capability to create and manage Welding and Glue beads ensures concurrent engineering, their management with configurationand versioning and simplifying re-use.
With new functionalities, such as constraints, patterns andmirroring, most sheet metal product can now be designedcompletely within Bend Part Design. This product increasesaffordability and provides a more life-like experience to thedesigner.
– Automation gains accelerate complex productmodeling
Families of components or assemblies are now easily editable andshareable and can be automatically built from spreadsheettemplates. This brings automation to the lifecyclemanagement of component families and increases flexibilty tochanges, versioning and variants.
CATIA Automated Design Process benefits from a key extension to theEnterprise Knowledge Language, reaching a new level in objectmodeling, generation and automation. This brings additionalflexibility to the domain expert, who can now combine the twocomplementary approaches for product automation: interactive,through process or design capture, and/or language based, to thelevel of ICAD.
– Performance gains in Functional Modelling and real timeediting in CATIA Live Shape
Major performance improvements increase the update performance ofFunctional Modelling for plastic part definition
Performance enhancements to Live Shape enables real-time editingfor local changes to very large and complex products.
– Constraints, patterns and mirroring functionalities inBend Part design
With new functionalities, such as constraints, patterns andmirroring, most sheet metal product can now be designed completelywithin Bend Part Design. This product increases affordabilityand provides a more life-like experience to the designer.
– Increased control and visibility throughout therequirements engineering process for complex systems
A new Traceability Matrix provides an “all in one” Systems Viewwhich captures, manages and displays all relationships in the RFLPSystems Breakdown, enabling rapid understanding of currentrequirement fulfilment
Requirements Management of complex products with largevolumes of requirements is simplified through the introduction ofnew grouping and analysis capabilities.
Reviewers can now collaborate on Requirements in addition toFunctional, Logical and Physical entities, while designers can directly access the requirement that is satisfied by a givenfeature of a physical product. This ensures improved communicationand project awareness.
– Increased development agility with the rapid definition,simulation and analysis of complex systems behavior
Animations are enriched through the display of dynamicsymbols in simulations , improving the overallunderstanding of systems behavior
Assembly & positioning of the 3D logical model can reuse behavior simulation results, enabling the faster conceptualdevelopment of 3D systems
Executable models are more easily shared for simulation on othercomputers. Export options enable the generated model to be executedon any computer free of any licensing.
– Reuse of Knowledge and Catalogs optimizes the systemsdesign process
Faster systems architecture definition and trade-off studies,with the pre-selection of relevant sub-systems catalogsor resources, ensures compliance with international or companystandards.
