About the CATIA for Industrial Designer course

CATIA Industrial Design is the ideal workflow solution for styling and design.CATIA is a leading computer-aided design/computer-assisted manufacturing/computer-aided engineering (CAD/CAM/CAE) system developed by Dassault Systems and used extensively in engineering organizations. The latest version of CATIA, version 5, is the first to be available on Windows.

CATIA Industrial Design software provides surface-based tools to help designerscreate styled shapes and surfaces, enabling even casual users to easily smooth and trim curves and surfaces. Real-time quality checking is possible through curve and surface diagnostic and analysis tools.

You will be able to

  • Create and edit 3D curves for styled product shapes
  • Build surfaces with FreeStyle and Generative Shape Design tools
  • Smooth, trim, join and match surfaces with continuity control
  • Check surface quality with curvature, highlight and reflection analysis
  • Develop styled shapes for automotive and consumer products
  • Present designs with materials, lighting and rendered images

Who it is for

  • Industrial and product design students
  • Mechanical and automobile engineers working on styling
  • Surface modelers in automotive and consumer product companies
  • CATIA users who want advanced surfacing

What you need

  • Basic CATIA or other 3D CAD knowledge is helpful
  • Interest in product shape and aesthetics
  • For live online classes: a Windows PC with 16 GB RAM and a graphics card
