The CATIA V5-6R2018: Advanced Assembly Design and Management learning
guide builds on the assembly functionality introduced in the CATIA: Introduction to
Modeling course. Students gain a full understanding of how to design and manage
a complex assembly in the CATIA software while concentrating on techniques that
maximize the capabilities of the Assembly workbench. This extensive hands-on
course contains numerous labs focused on process-based practices to give you
practical experience and improve design productivity.
Topics Covered
• Assembly operations (reconnecting constraints, specification tree
customization, save operations, Desk Command, etc.)
• Skeleton Modeling
• Contextual Design
• Publications
• Link Management
• Collaborative Design
• Component Degrees of Freedom
• Assembly Duplication (multi-instantiation, component symmetry, reuse
patterns, etc.)
• Assembly analysis (measurements, clash, sectioning a model, etc.)
Prerequisites
• Access to CATIA V5-6R2018 software. The practices and files included with
this guide might not be compatible with prior versions.
• Completion of the CATIA V5-6 R2018: Introduction to Modeling course and an
additional 80 hours of CATIA experience are recommended.
