    Getting Started with CATIA V5-6R2015

    Introduction to CATIA V5-6R2015

    CATIA V5-6R2015 is a parametric and feature-based system that allows you to create 3D parts, assemblies, and 2D drawings. The design process in CATIA V5 is shown below.

    Workbenches in CATIA V5-6R2015

    CATIA V5 offers many workbenches to perform various design processes. For example, CATIA V5 provides you with the Generative Sheetmetal Design workbench to design a sheet metal part. Likewise, there are many workbenches to perform advanced operations such are static analysis, mold design, automotive design, and so on. However, in this book we cover the basic workbenches such as Sketcher, Part Design, Assembly Design, Drafting, Generative Sheetmetal Design, and Generative Shape Design. A brief introduction to these workbenches is given next.

    Part Design

    The Part Design workbench provides you with commands to create parametric solid models. You can activate this workbench by clicking Start > Mechanical Design > Part Design on the Menu bar. To create solid models, you must draw parametric sketches in the Sketcher workbench, and then convert them into solids. However, you can add some additional features to the solid models, which do not require sketches.

    Assembly Design

    The Assembly Design workbench (click Start > Mechanical Design > Assembly Design) has commands to combine individual parts in an assembly. There are two ways to create an assembly. The first way is to create individual parts and assemble them in the Assembly Design Workbench (Bottom-up assembly design). The second way is to start an assembly file and create individual parts in it (Top-down assembly design).

    Drafting

    The Drafting workbench (click Start > Mechanical Design > Drafting) has commands to create 2D drawings, which can be used for the manufacturing process. There are two ways to create drawings. The first way is to generate the standard views of a 3D component or assembly. The second way is to sketch the drawings manually.

    Generative Sheetmetal Design

    The Generative Sheetmetal Design workbench (click Start > Mechanical Design > Generative Sheetmetal Design) has commands to create sheet metal geometry. You can create sheet metal model either by building features in a systematic manner or by converting a part geometry in to a sheet metal.

    Generative Shape Design

    The Generative Shape Design workbench (click Start > Shape > Generative Shape Design) has commands to create complex geometries, which cannot be created by using the commands in the Part Design workbench. You can create a surface geometry, and then convert it into a solid geometry. A surface is an infinitely thin feature, which acts as a reference. Whereas, a solid geometry has properties such as weight, center of gravity, and so on.

    Parametric Modeling in CATIA V5

    In CATIA V5, parameters, dimensions, or constraints control everything. For example, if you want to change the position of the hole
