About the course

Aim

After completing this course, the participants will have a good understanding of how automation of repetitive CAD work will provide engineers the means and opportunity to be more intuitive and creative. Furthermore, the students shall:

  • Be capable of creating CAD models of complex products
  • Understand how to implement logic in CAD models in order to make them intelligent and generative
  • Understand the principle of building flexible and reusable CAD models
  • Be capable of creating flexible and reusable CAD models in CATIA V5
  • Able to use programming in Visual Basic, CATScript and Engineering Knowledge Language (EKL) to create generative CAD models
  • Able to use Application Programming Interface (API) in order to connect various software

Content

The course is divided in three parts. In the first part of the course the students are introduced to:

  • Basic modeling in CATIA V5
  • Part workbench
  • Assembly workbench
  • Generative Shape Design workbench

Part two of the course will introduce the students to:

  • Methodologies on how to create complex products.
  • Rule-based design
  • Design reuse
  • How to connect models with an external user interface
  • Early on in the course an examination task will be handed out, which should be solved working in groups.
