Master Catia 3d experience generative shape design through step-by-step commands, practical exercises, and industry workflows, preparing you to create complex surfaces for automotive and product design.
Master generative shape design on the 3d experience platform, noting Catia v6 is replaced by 3d experience and targets class a surface design.
Learn how to use the heal command in Catia to close gaps between surfaces. Set continuity, merging distance, and tangency while freezing plane or canonic elements for precise surface healing.
Apply the boundary command to extract a surface boundary by selecting edges and choosing point continuity, tangency, or complete boundary, optionally using limits, then extrude or isolate as needed.
Use the curve smooth command in Catia 3DEXPERIENCE 2026 to smooth curves by setting tangency and curvature thresholds and maximum deviation for G0–G3 continuity and class A surfaces.
Explore the offset command in surface design, applying it to single and joined surfaces, adjusting direction, millimeter offsets, and smoothing options to prevent offset failures.
designs bracket 2 in Catia 3dexperience 2026 generative shape design by building sketches on zx and xy planes, extruding, filleting, offsetting surfaces, and adding holes.
Design a complex case surface with Catia 3dexperience 2026 generative shape design, building constrained sketches, applying mirror, extrude, split, join, and fillet operations.
Design a bracket in Catia 3DEXPERIENCE by organizing geometrical sets, creating sketches on the yz plane, extruding, joining, filleting, and adding 2 mm thickness.
Hi, my name is Alex and I’m a Senior Design Engineer with more than 22 years of experience working with CATIA in automotive engineering, motorsport, and industrial design.
Throughout my career, I’ve worked on professional design projects with companies such as Ferrari Formula 1 Team, Red Bull Racing, Jaguar Land Rover, Aston Martin, and others.
In this course, I will teach you CATIA 3DEXPERIENCE Generative Shape Design from the ground up, so that by the end of the course you will have the knowledge and confidence needed to work in a professional design environment.
This course is designed for users who already understand the CATIA interface and basic concepts, and want to move into professional surface modeling.
You will learn every command step by step, with dedicated videos for each tool, followed by practical exercises packed with tips, tricks, and real-world workflows.
The course structure is based on more than two decades of professional experience using CATIA, as well as many years of teaching it to others.
First, I will explain all the commands in depth in videos designed so you can quickly find them whenever you need to revisit a specific tool.
Then we will work through exercises to practice the commands and explore different design methods.
And we don’t stop there.
At the end of the course, I’ve included additional videos about the design industry and an introduction to advanced Class-A surface design, so you can better understand the different career paths available.
By the end of the course, you will be able to confidently create complex surfaces and understand the workflows used by professional designers in the automotive and product design industries.
If you want to truly understand surface modeling in CATIA and build skills that are used in industry, this course is for you.
