CATIA Video

  1. Analysis & Simulation
  2. Kinematics Simulation
  3. Collision Detection
  4. Rendering
  5. Drawing

Analysis & Simulation

This helps in validating part/assembly stress integrity. It is a way to check if the part would pass the load design specification. You’ll be able to anticipate any failure, in which area of the design. Check out the video demo below:
Analysis Part Analysis & Simulation

Kinematics Simulation

Branch of motion science, which involves study of the displacement, velocity and acceleration of a body without taking into account the forces involved in the motion. It analyzes the motion and determines any parameters related to motion like velocity, acceleration, distance etc.
DMU Kinematics Joint Tutorial DMU Kinematics Tutorial

Collision Detection

This helps in checking if the assembly have any collision or interference for both static and motion situation.

Collision Detection

Rendering

You’ll be able to view the product in certain material renders, placing the product in certain relevant location/scene or even making a realistic product image.

Drawing

Find out how to get drawing such as exploded view in CATIA.

Animation

Use Animation to create simple animations that use interpolation to specify point-to-point motion of parts in assemblies. You can also apply motor-based animations to assembly components using Animation. Check out the video demo below:

Animation


Collision Detection

You can detect collisions with other components when moving or rotating a component. The software can detect collisions with the entire assembly or a selected group of components. You can find collisions for either the selected components or for all of the components that move as a result of mates to the selected components.
Check out the video demo below:

Collision Detection 


Costing

The tool helps designers make decisions based on the cost to manufacture and helps manufacturers create quotes for customers. Whenever you change a design, you can see the new, updated cost immediately, along with a detailed cost breakdown. Additionally, you can generate automatic cost reports.

Costing 


Design Validation

Products can be tested for strength and safety, and the kinematics fully analyzed. Further, a wide variety of geometry types are supported so you can simulate the real world performance of solid, thin-walled, and structural features.

Design Validation 

Design For Manufacturing

Tool to validates the manufacturability of parts designed with SOLIDWORKS. Use DFMXpress to identify design areas that might cause problems during fabrication or increase production costs, and quickly review parts with mill, drill, turning, sheet metal, and injection molding requirements.

DFM Xpress 

Draft Analysis

Set analysis parameters and color settings to identify and visualize areas with insufficient draft on molded parts.

Draft Analysis 


Clearance Verification

Check the clearance between selected components in assemblies. The software checks the minimum distance between the components and reports clearances that fail to meet the minimum acceptable clearance you specify.

Gap Check 


Interference Detection

Identifies interferences between components, and helps you to examine and evaluate those interferences. Interference Detection is useful in complex assemblies, where it can be difficult to visually determine whether components interfere with each other.

Interference Detection 

Mass Properties

The SOLIDWORKS application calculates properties such as mass, density, and volume, based on the model geometry and material properties. You can override the calculated values for some properties.

Mass Properties 

Material Apply

You assign material to the part by picking a material from a material library. Materials in SolidWorks have two sets of properties, visual and physical (mechanical).

Material Apply 

Mechanism

Mates create geometric relationships between assembly components. As you add mates, you define the allowable directions of linear or rotational motion of the components. You can move a component within its degrees of freedom, visualizing the assembly’s behavior.

Mechanism
