1.1 Tolerancing and Annotations
Tolerances and annotations provide the details required to
manufacture and fabricate a model designed in CATIA.
Tolerances and annotations guide a Manufacturing group in the
following ways:
• Details the acceptable standards.
• Provides the window for geometric variances and
imperfections in parts and assemblies.
• Facilitates the production process and manufacturing
standards.
Traditionally, these annotations are placed in the 2D drawing.
Using the 3D Tolerancing & Annotation app, all annotations are
stored directly in the 3D model. This eliminates the need to
develop a drawing, and supports a paperless design and
manufacturing environment. An example of an annotated part
model is shown in Figure 1–1.
