CATIA Mechanical is a complete, collaborative and extremely flexible design environment.
With V6, CATIA expands 3D design to user communities outside of the design office, by providing each profile with the right functionality, such as direct 3D modelling, geometrical surfaces handling, feature-based design and history-free functional modelling.
V5 PORTFOLIO
Part Design
Parametric and variational module providing great part design flexibility. Its "functional modelling"-oriented approach for all business functions allows handling of the most complex geometrical cases.
Wireframe Surface
Module enabling use of wireframe and surface functions during mechanical part design. These functions are stored in the product-tree view and are entirely associative.
Structure Design
Module enabling rapid design of sets of mechanical structures, using catalogues of standard or custom components.
Mould Tooling Design
Module enabling definition of mould tooling placement in a highly productive and intuitive environment.
Assembly Design
Module for assembly of parts and mechanical sub-assemblies meeting the real needs of the structure of a project. It enables retrieval of how sets of parts were designed to be used together, and dynamic verification of assembly coherence. Design in an assembly context enables significant productivity gains.
Welded Part Design
Module enabling design of mechanically-welded assemblies by use of business activity.
Feature Recognition
Module enabling feature recognition for a part whose data has been imported and which has no construction history.
Generative Drafting
Integrated using a single drafting menu, this module enables automatic production of associative drawings of parts or assemblies. Your own 2D drawing assistant.
Interactive Drafting
Integrated using a single drafting menu, this module provides all functions required for 2D design and drawing production.
Sheet Metal Design
Module enabling rapid design of folded and stamped sheet metal parts using the most common sheet metal business functions and standards. Sheet metal part design is completely integrated with traditional part or assembly design.
Sheet Metal Production
Module providing all functions required for preparing for sheet metal part manufacture.
3D Functional Tolerancing and Annotations
Module enabling definition and management of tolerancing specifications and annotation on 3D models.
Healing Assistant
Module enabling checking and correction of imported geometry in accordance with modelling criteria chosen by the user.
Mould Design
Module for complex mould design using standard mould element provider catalogues and special elements such as rings, ejectors, and columns. Design takes place in an intuitive environment that integrates expert rules for mould creation.
Die and Pattern Design
Specialised module for the production of mould dies and patterns using an interactive approach, with results associated to the part to be manufactured. The production takes into account the feasibility criteria relevant for each part.
Cast Forged Part Optimizer
Module providing advanced options for preparation and tooling necessary to manufacture a forged part.
Functional Moulded Part
Specialised module for functional moulded part design.
Aerospace Sheet Metal Design
Specialised module for production of hydro-formed sheet metal parts in the aerospace sector.
