Description

Welcome to this CATIA tutorial! This tutorial is designed to get you from a complete beginner to advanced user of CATIA easily comfortable with 3D modelling.

Catia is one of most widely used softwares for 3D CAD (Computer Aided Design). It is used in wide variety of industries, from aerospace and automotive through oil and gas all the way to food industry and many others. Learning this software will undoubtedly increase your employability within engineering sector and will open door to many other possibilities of either further learning or industry paths. This course will be your guide in every step!

Why choose this course?

Commands are explained on real examples so you will see how they are used within context of a component rather than just understanding what each command does. We have over 25 examples that we will be completing!
Each new component requires you to use commands you have already learnt and therefore reinforces your already gained knowledge, while new commands are being built on top.
No previous experience needed. This course has been designed to start from absolute beginning.
Taught by a tutor with more than 8 years of experience in CATIA. The tutor currently works as Design Engineer and uses 3D CAD on daily basis to design components.
100 CAD examples at the end for you to practice.
Course dwells into details of methodology of design and puts emphasis on properly understanding impact of your constraints and design decisions and 3D modelling

How is the course structured?

Introduction into CATIA
- We are first going to discuss workbenches in CATIA, what they mean and what they are used for
- We will then set-up our Part Design workbench and I will explain its interface
- We will the understand how to navigate in CATIA, manipulate the parts and move the screen
- We will then proceed with overview of commands in Sketcher Workbench to understand how they work
- We will then discuss how constraining the sketches works
- We will explore what different colours of constraints mean
Let's start sketching and modelling!
- We will be using Sketcher Workbench and Part Design workbench together to create more than 25 components!
- Increasing level of component difficulty
- Using the commands over and over while new commands are being built on top
- Mixture of component based learning approach and detailed isolated explanation of some particular commands
Assembly Design Workbench
- We will start with introduction into Assembly Design Workbench, how to open it, interface and importing components
- We will then look at explanation of all relevant constraints in the Assembly Design Workbench
- We will then build an assembly that converts rotational motion to linear motion
- We will the look at editing assemblies
- We will then look at how to section an assembly, clash detection and exploded view
Drafting Workbench
- We will look at interface and how to create a new sheet and change its size and properties
- We will look at inserting a component and creating different views
- We will then dimension a drawing
- We will create a Hole Table
- We will create and Assembly drawing with Bill of Material and Balloons
- We will look at exporting drawings
Kinematics Workbench
- We will look at setting up a simple simulation to understand the principles
- We will simulate our assembly that we had created before
