CATIA V5 BY B PRASAD NAIK 11403446 B.TECH-ME

INTRODUCTION • Catia is also known as computer aided three dimensional interactive application. CATIA was started in 1977 by French Aircraft Manufacturer Avions Marcel Dassault System . • It is also used in aerospace, automotive, shipbuilding, and other industries. • CATIA is developed by DASSAULT system and IBM • Its programming is written in c++ language

WHY CHOOSE CATIA OVER OTHERS?

• In CATIA, you can not only create a car, but a factory in which it will be produced, • The machining processes required • Even you can simulate ergonomics studies as well, like weather the current layout of a plant will be comfortable for workers to work or not • So you can simulate the whole thing within a virtual reality, including, and of course, rendering.

FOR MECHANICAL ENGINEERING : • CATIA enables the creation of 3D parts, from 3D sketches, sheet metal composites, moulded, forged or tooling parts up to the definition of mechanical assemblies. The software provides advanced technologies for mechanical surfacing In the case of Aerospace engineering an additional module named the aerospace sheet metal design offers the user combine the capabilities of generative sheet metal design and generative surface design

FOR INDUSTRY: • Aerospace The Boeing Company used CATIA V3 to develop its 777 airliner, and is currently using CATIA V5 for the 787 series aircraft. Canadian aircraft maker Bombardier Aerospace has done all of its designing on CATIA.

• Automotive BMW, Porsche, Daimler Chrysler, Audi, Volkswagen, Bentley Motors Limited, Volvo, Fiat, Bentlee AG, PSA Peugeot Citroën, Renault, Toyota, Ford, Scania, Hyundai, Skoda Auto, Tesla Motors, Proton, Tata motors and Mahindra & Mahindra Limited. Many automotive companies use CATIA for car structures — door beams, IP supports, bumper beams, roof rails, side rails, body components — because CATIA is very good in surface creation and Computer representation of surfaces.

• Shipbuilding

Dassault Systems has begun serving shipbuilders with CATIA V5 release 8, which includes special features useful to shipbuilders. GD Electric Boat used CATIA to design the latest fast attack submarine class for the United States Navy, the Virginia class. Northrop Grumman Newport News also used CATIA to design the Gerald R. Ford class of supercarriers for the US Navy. • Other Architect Frank Gehry has used the software, through the C-Cubed Virtual Architecture company, now Virtual Build Team, to design his award-winning curvilinear buildings. His technology arm, Gehry Technologies, has been developing software based on CATIA V5 named Digital Project. Digital Project has been used to design buildings and has successfully completed a handful of projects.

EXAMPLES

CATIA MODULES • Sketcher • Part Design • Assembly

• Drafting • Wire Frame and Surface Design • Sheet Metal Design

• DMU kinematics

THE SPECIFICATION TREE • Provides access to the history of how a part was constructed, and shows the product structure • Parts can be modified by selecting them from the spec. tree.

SKETCHER

SKETCHER 1. Profile Toolbar

2. Operations Toolbar

3. Constraint toolbar

PART DESIGN • The Part Design application is used to create solid models of parts • Solid parts are usually created from 2D profiles that are extruded or revolved to form a base feature • Parts can be modified by selecting their features in the specification tree

ASSEMBLY DESIGN • The Assembly Design application allows you to create a product model from a number of separate parts • The parts in a product assembly are not joined together, but assembled as they would be in a physical assembly

• The product assembly structure is hierarchical and allows you to model complex product relationships • Constraints can be applied between the parts in assembly to define relationships between them

ASSEMBLY DESIGN • Constraints Toolbar    

Coincidence Contact Offset Angular

• Product Structure Tools  Insert New Component  Insert New Product  Insert New Part  Insert Existing Component  Replace Component

STEPS FOR CREATING AN ASSEMBLY 1. Create a new CATProduct using File -> New -> Product. 2. Use the Product Structure tools to lay out the main assembly structure 3. Use Insert Existing Component or Insert New Part to create geometry in the Assembly

4. Use Constraints to capture the design relationships between the various parts in the assembly
