CATIA V5 is a leading geometric parametric modeling CAD software. It provides a broad set of CAD solutions for the design of complex mechanical products. The iSIGHT-FD CATIA V5 CAD Driver component creates a direct native link to CATIA V5, allowing the user to modify CAD geometry, extract relevant output parameters, and export neutral geometry files automatically and without using the CAD system interface. This component can be used together with iSIGHT design drivers to perform CATIA optimization, DOE, or Monte Carlo simulation.
The CATIA component provides support for native CATPart, CATProduct, and CATAnalysis files. It suppports input parameters including sketch dimensions, feature dimensions, pattern dimensions, and GD&T dimensions. It also supports CATAnalysis parameters including meshing parameters, boundary conditions, output sensors, loads, and material properties. The component can output mass properties and equation parameters as well as neutral geometry export to stl, igs, wrl, model, cgr, hcg, and vps formats.
Users of the CATIA component also use the following components:
Ansys Workbench component, MSC.Patran component
