CATIA V5: Clash Analysis breakdown

February 6, 2020 Trisha West

Performing a static clash in CATIA is a powerful tool that can detect areas of interference, contact and minimum clearance violations. In this video, we break down how to set up, read your clash analysis, and adjust internal setting for the clash in CATIA V5. Then we talk about two methods of visualizing the interference area with sectioning and Boolean operations.

More information about this topic can be found in the Rand 3D training class, DMU Navigator and Space Analysis.
